    HOYLFOK. Haha, I checked online and they cost about $40 a piece... I never figured they would be worth that much. Man, I got very lucky 0_0;

      Re: Vinyls

      My parents have a large collection. Thriller, David Bowie, Zep, etc. I'm mad they got rid of their record player; I wanted to take some of those for a spin! I've been looking at buying a turntable but they're way out of my price range

        And I thought The White Album & Thriller were a common item in a vinyl collection. I think my uncle or even my parents have one if not both.

            Re: Vinyls

            I own a couple of albums on vinyl but don't actually have anything to play them on yet. Most of them came with "deluxe editions" of albums, but others were just limited edition shit I wanted to grab.

            I've got uh
            an original pressing of the 4xLP version of Hold Your Colour
            a limited edition baby blue Busdriver 7"
            180gram 2xLP of Eskmo's self titled album
            the vinyl reissue of All Hail West Texas
            and (unfortunately) the 2xLP version of Pendulum's Immersion (I could make some serious cash off this one though lmao)

            might pick up the vinyl pressing of R+7 soon considering it comes with a cool free poster
            more of a cassette collector myself though. cassette culture is some cool shit

              Cassette looks pretty cool... But what appeals me in vinyls is the biggass artwork

                lol? you can do this with vinyl.

                There are a load of inexpensive players that are still good enough.

                "Oh, just my cock." Replied Foil.
                "That just will not do." was keywii's response as she lunged for the scissors, pulled the blades apart, and clamped them down on the base of foil's shaft. Blood start gushing out of the wound where his penis used to be.
                "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Yelled Foil in horror.
                "Don't worry. I'm a wizard" uttered Keywii. And with that, Foil's penis grew back.

                  Re: Vinyls

                  My point is this. The time and money you spend on ripping vinyls are considerably more important than what CD offers. Plus, considering the process of transfer, there's no point of doing it if you don't already own an important collection with some rare to find records you'd like to read digitally.

                  I should have added "that can actually be transferred to digital over vinyls without trouble".
                  By the way, I've had a friend that agreed to sell me a full analog set for a nickel but he kept it in the end. I'm still bitter about it for good reasons.

                    Re: Vinyls

                    Last vinyl I bought was duality from flylo. The sleeve was scuffed up with pressure marks when I received it which kind of pissed me off. Looked like it had been stacked flat for weeks.

                      Re: Vinyls

                      the allure of vinyl for audiophiles is the unmatched warmth of sound that vinyl can give you. I haven't been able to compare vinyl vs cd quality digital sound on a high end system, but I'm open to the idea.
                      That said there is something very convenient of one hard drive storing all your music at lossless quality and having that connected to a high-end system

                      But then my lady friend got pissed off I was playing FFR instead of playing her. Then for the rest of the night she played the 'Only want me for my body' card and I didn't get to sleep with blankets that night.

                        The only record I own is Surfin' Bird by The Trashmen. I got it for Christmas a few years ago.

                          Just dropping in to say that averaging the worth of vinyls as 10 dollar per vinyl is pretty silly. Unless he was collecting coveted records (e.g. daft punk vinyls, common as fuck but still a decent price) or rare and obscure records that have a fanbase that's willing to pay obscene amounts (e.g. boards of canada original vinyls or something like that), common second-hand vinyls are usually worth like 2 to 3 bucks lol. Maybe even less since the sleeves all look pretty beat up.

                            Nah. They're in pretty good shape. I'll get some pictures someday, you'll eat your hat! Remember I got this for zilch. It's a much better deal than anything I ever bought in my life, monetarily, I'm pretty sure.
