Turns out the heatwave also helped with flattening... as 2 weeks under the entire set of Depeche Mode box sets and it being nearly 40 degrees...and it's flat again.
Heatwave casualty. Poor Sophie. It popped the seal and even the sleeve was bent. Any other casualties?
I'd almost forgotten about Eric Alper and his endless engaging tweets...Who remembers the Beatles? Aren't records great? Who remembers 80's music...etc etc...and then I happened to click our podcast email spam folder.
might as well call off the September competition for #overpricedcharityshoprecords @webuyrecords.bsky.social
Welcome aboard.....I can't even remember 2019...but it'll be a laugh through to 2026 for sure....
Just started listening to @webuyrecords.bsky.social, so much fun, so much giggling. How I missed this in the old place is beyond me. Great to hear so many peeps being mentioned, the good, the bad, & the blocked...🤣 Nearly through 2019. I'm getting there.

Do any of you nerds know exactly when the pressing fault occurs during "Money" on the first UK solid blue prism Dark Side Of The Moon?
Snot Filled Shrek, anyone, anyone? Only £90 to you Gov. Hurry hurry @vinylstupidity.bsky.social @webuyrecords.bsky.social
Ep 78. We share listener's pre streaming discovery tales, a bumper letter bag, meta glasses get renamed, a quiz, lady pop and all your usual crate digging larks. Our cloud recording for @justplayed.bsky.social failed halfway, so he's half cooked until we recover it. Episode pod.link/1456163688
I'm getting to the point where there's no point buying new vinyl, especially from the corporates. This is the state of the latest #MilesDavis box set. I've tried 2 copies, one from the UK, the other from Switzerland, both the same. 0 quality control. They just don't give a fuck. #Entshittification
Any listener thoughts on Nonce Goggles as bans continue to be rolled out in business premises?
I know everyone says “vinyl’s back baby!” but that’s a ridiculously optimistic valuation… @webuyrecords.bsky.social
Want to help with the next quiz? Drop us your 'best value' humble compilation...over buying the original singles....Paul snagged the last of these at Juno.. there's surely better out there.
Looking forward to seeing what Tim thinks of this 👀
Who comes up with this shit? Another exciting way to do variants
Loads of people in their 50s who listen to the pod will have discovered artists through tapes from the library. Mine was Billy Bragg - Talking To The Taxman About Poetry. That tape informed my outlook on life. Libraries did indeed give us power.
As mentioned in the new episode, we want your stories of personal & unique ways you discovered a favourite artist in the pre-streaming era. Found a Randy Newman LP in a skip? Borrowed a Sparks tape from the library cos the cover was weird? Tell us! Webuyrecordspod@gmail.com

@franticplanet.bsky.social hi - do you mind if I ask if you've applied AI upscaling to your latest video? If it was your decision, can I beg you on bended knee to not go down that road? It looks awful and isn't an accurate representation of the source material either. Love your stuff otherwise.
"You've got to sit through The Stereophonics to get to The Cure." My new go-to motivational dad quote, thanks @webuyrecords.bsky.social
As an AFOL myself I was surprised this old drama story was dragged up again on social networks. It's old news from 2025 and well known in the #LEGO community. Anyway, I hope you enjoy my custom made minifigures of Taylor Swift and Michael Jackson. Keep up the great work! Love your podcast ❤️
No doubt many of you have been following the Lego drama over on YouTube (if you haven't you should)..made us think... anyone had a bad experience when selling used records..shop owners tried to rip you off? Even steal some of your records? Shady business to webuyrecordspod@gmail.com
F*ck me…😳👇 @webuyrecords.bsky.social [Who the hells needs this 🤔But is is less than 1£ per track with loads of unlreased stuff - so at least there’s that]
