Tatsu Posted May 10, 2006 Posted May 10, 2006 I also don't mind when CDs don't come shrinkwrapped. It's nice to get old albums that are still wrapped, but as Insejn said, you have to tear the shrinkwrap away anyway. Quote
Guest antic Posted May 10, 2006 Posted May 10, 2006 Well, you are going to remove it anyway? 524964[/snapback] I also don't mind when CDs don't come shrinkwrapped. It's nice to get old albums that are still wrapped, but as Insejn said, you have to tear the shrinkwrap away anyway. 524968[/snapback] Ok, then maybe I'm just a crazy collector-wannabe, but it feels different (better IMO) when I get new, shrink-wrapped CD and a CD that looks like new, but it's not shrink-wrapped. And what's the fuss with all this unwrapping? You people don't have nails or scissors? It's takes like 3 seconds to do that, and I can sacrifice this time to be sure no one touched my precious CD with their dirty hands... Quote

DeathPosture Posted May 10, 2006 Author Posted May 10, 2006 I would like to see you open a wrapper in 3 seconds with your nails. 524985[/snapback] I used to work in a record store... I can do it in 2 seconds - not with my nails though... It's a simple matter of letting one of the edges slide against a rugged edge - and you're set... Quote

reger Posted May 10, 2006 Posted May 10, 2006 Luckily when I got to work this morning I found a package from Germany with: Space Tribe - Sonic Mandala (Spirit Zone) http://www.discogs.com/release/69456 The best Space Tribe's album for sure! Love it!!! 524940[/snapback] lucky bastard Quote
Guest antic Posted May 10, 2006 Posted May 10, 2006 lucky bastard 525024[/snapback] Well, it costed me 20EUR with shipping, so I'm not that lucky when you look at it that way. But yeah, it's damn worth every euro-cent I spent on it! Quote

Guest antic Posted May 10, 2006 Posted May 10, 2006 wtf - 20euro for that album would be allmost like a gift to me 525057[/snapback] I've seen it go couple of times during last 3 months for 20-30EUR, so watch eBay and you'll finally get your chance. German releases, and especially Spirit Zone's in particular, were printed in big volumes, so there's still supply for it. I wish it would be the case with that motherf*****g Technossomy CD! Quote

Guest antic Posted May 10, 2006 Posted May 10, 2006 (edited) well next time be present at auction, cut that "i set it to 50" bullshit ! 525066[/snapback] You know, I've spent couple hundred $$$ last 3 months on eBay, and if I didn't set myself any limits it could easily end up with over thousand $$$... I intentionally left my work 15 minutes before Technossomy auction's end, to be sure I'll be driving my car home when it ends... Believe me, it was a hard decision, but I'm kinda proud of myself now I believe I'll get lucky someday, like it happened with this Space Tribe, Rock Bitch Mafia (10$!!!), TIP Blue (12$!!!) or Mystical Experiences (15$)... I just have to be patient... Edited May 10, 2006 by antic Quote
Tatsu Posted May 10, 2006 Posted May 10, 2006 Patience is the key when you collect records and not want to spend enourmous amounts for the stuff you are missing. If you come across something really special you can still forget your limits to make yourself a present. Quote
Guest antic Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 talking about luck and patience - 12GBP for TIP Orange is a nice catch or what! and I was sleeping while the auction ended Quote
Anoebis Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 talking about luck and patience - 12GBP for TIP Orange is a nice catch or what! and I was sleeping while the auction ended 525609[/snapback] I don't know if you are a catnr collector or a music collector (lol, it's a difference), but if you are just into the music ALONE, try the Colours of Shiva compilations, it are all good TIP's and they are much cheaper as the usual TIP comps Quote

That's why I bought TE's Violent Relaxation, even if I had Avatar's re-release. The same was with Rock Bitch Mafia (the NovaTekk's release if for sale / trade BTW ) And yes, I have all 3 parts of Colours of Shiva, but I can always sell them if I'll get all those TIP comps I'm looking for... Though I doubt I'll it get rid of them - they look really nice and were not very expensive too... Edited May 11, 2006 by antic Quote
