How exactly? I'm selling them in line with discog prices.

Exactly
Ok, i'll sell them for £5 each. Seem a fair price to you now?

I didn't obtain them to make a profit and i'm not selling that at a higher price than market value.

If I put them on eBay they'll probably go for more anyway.

So the vinyl are in mint condition, but you didn't obtain them to make a profit..

No. I rarely play them and take good care of my collection. Moved more into d&b now so there is literally no point having them around when someone else can have them.

I can not tell you how much I love the fact that you're adjusting your prices after my post so that you can make your arguments seem valid.

I'd like to stress "seem" here, since the DMZ005 release you're referencing lists the sleeve in "generic" condition, which to the best of my knowledge just means it's a plain white sleeve, while the record's condition is VG+. Yes, yours is listed as "mint," but I'll trust someone who lists his as VG+ and offers a return policy over someone who lists his as mint and makes false statements about competitive prices in order to make a sale.

Look "old timer", I really don't give a shit what you list them for. Just telling you that you're kidding yourself with these prices. I also got dmz010 on ebay (and seen others go) for half of what you were initially listing. Friendly advice broseph :t:

Also, this:
acronym wrote:A) Each of these have at least one copy available on Discogs for less than what you're offering (in the case of DMZ006, two)
B) Take a look at their average selling price on Discogs: DMZ005 - 36£; DMZ006 - 53£; DMZ010 - 27£. That should dictate the "market value" you're talking about.

I argued that my original prices were fair, after which, I checked again and they aren't. I've since changed the prices to either properly reflect discogs or even better the lowest priced ones.

You plebs are the exact reason as to why DSF is a mess, you've been around less than a minute and you're already giving it. Now, go back to ranting about why Skream just makes shit music and that Request Line is the way forward ok?

Either way, whatever. I'll leave you alone, 'cause at this point anybody looking at this should have a rough idea of what is fair and shouldn't get screwed.

so they're played?! can't be graded as mint then, more like m- or vg+.
Mint (M)

Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed. Should be used sparingly as a grade, If at all.

Near Mint (NM or M-)

A nearly perfect record. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than this implying (perhaps correctly) that no record is ever truly perfect. The record should show no obvious signs of wear. A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear or other signs of slight handling. An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. No cut-out holes, either. And of course, the same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves and the like. Basically, an LP in near mint condition looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap. Near Mint is the highest price listed in all Goldmine price guides. Anything that exceeds this grade, in the opinion of both buyer and seller, is worth significantly more than the highest Goldmine book value.

Shit like this perpetuates this whole fucking cycle of holding DMZ tunes up as alters to which people beg on their knees and pray to. They're just 2 fucking tunes, on a circular black disc.

I really hope someone breaks into your house and steals those from you, and sells them for 5 pounds at a pawn shop whose owner listens to them and then decides he loves the sound and begins to purchase vinyl, further contributing to a rather small scale scene.

Hardly begging is it you thick prick. Shall I sell them for £5 just so it puts a massive grin on your face?

I've taken advice and lowered them enough.

Besides, how the fuck is dubstep a small scene? It's a massive global genre with music constantly played on mainstream radio and TV channels. It's not exactly 01-02 dubstep or 91-92 jungle is it?

I've sold Neverland already.

The other two are now on discogs. I'm the cheapest for both. That good enough for you?

Hello kind sir, it seems as though you have misunderstood my statement. I was referring to the vinyl scene / culture, and not the 140 bass music scene. I sincerely apologize for the misunderstanding. Have a nice day! :)

Nothing wrong with selling desirable tunes for profit, I do it myself, but those prices are definitely a bit of a piss take.

If you're gonna sell shit for crazy prices, just leave them on Discogs. Don't make a thread about it.

Waving ultra-desirable releases under people's noses for half a week's wages. What did you expect?
