I don’t think it makes a difference, I just have very tight shelves so I just slid the record between some big art books rather than create a stack on the floor.

I've heard a lot of great things about the Vinyl Flat.
I've been considering one for a while.

My local shop has Vinyl Flat that he used one of my albums

i own a vinyl flat and the groovy pouch. it works great.

I made a deal on Discogs today for NOES 1 + 2. I’m pretty pumped. NOES was one of my last major grails to get so I’m really happy. Now if anyone has any leads on a decently priced copy of Videodrome please let me know.

Does the vinyl flat just take care of minor warping? Will it handle more severe warpage? I would be worried a record would snap just trying to place it in the vinyl flat. I also noticed they sell a ton of replacement parts and they all seem like small pieces like washers and such. Have you had any issues

Went record shopping in NYC today, picked up raising Arizona/blood simple finally and The Burning (and some cramps boots, but that’s for another forum)

Nice grabs @hatter I love The Burning I spin my copy a lot. I still need pick up a copy of Raising Arizona/ Blood Simple. I never really think to look for it. I should really correct that.

These beauties showed up today. I was shocked how quick they got here. Omen 3 isn’t a VS but I bought it with the other two. I feel my goldsmith game is getting stronger though

Hatter and Pete those are both great little hauls...those nightmares looking good.

I just came across this on ebay. I'm simply blown away by the fucking gall of this seller listing this as new and unopened.

Wowwwww.

Not VS related but eBay seller-related: I bought a grip of Capitol Hi-Q records on eBay last week and the seller claimed they “look totally unplayed, they’re like new”.

this is what shows up:
Maybe it’s “unplayed” but it’s surely been used as a frisbee in a heavily wooded area for a few years.

What the hell

How on earth…I’m so sorry

That’s the worst one. The others are not as bad but VG at best. Seller still hasn’t responded.

It was worse than I actually imagined lol. I can't imagine he'll ever sell that but who knows. People are weird.

There's a copy of Evil Dead that just went up on discogs for a cool $499

Ugh, it just. Keeps. Climbing.

My wife thought I was out of my mind for buying Evil Dead a couple of years ago for like $120.

Thou mightst not think twice, but thou wilt pay thrice!

Speaking of expensive records - I had no idea how expensive the original VS Halloween is getting. Just a few years ago, you could get a nice one for around $100. Tough to come by one that cheap now (at least the non-bar code version).

is the barcode a sticker? no right. mine has a sticker barcode but not a printed bar code. i got lucky on it for a little over $100 but it was definitely a snipe

Not sure. I noticed the copy I bought as a kid in the 80s (no bar code) was expensive now, but there’s a version on discogs with a barcode that’s for sale around $150 i think? but the version I have seems to be a lot pricier.

I used to look for a slightly better copy, as mine has a bit of noise on the first track, but it’s gotten way out of my price range.

I did not know there was a version with and one without a bar code. I bought my copy in the beginning of the year I believe. It was the cheapest copy available at that time from a seller in France. Still cost me 100 euro for a VG+ copy but I am very happy to have picked that one up. I does not appear to have a bar code but there is a sticker with a bar code from a shop on the bottom right corner on the back.
