I cannot understand for the life of me why people associate funko pops with records. I see them at record shows and record stores all the time. To each their own but what is the relation? Anyways, great video. I do think that people trying to capitalize on a niche community is what always ends up killing it, it’s the passion that makes it thrive, if you remove the heart, you remove the life.

As a research tool, Discogs is better than ever. A year ago, it was still a mess. They finally have everything chronological, with most duplicates tossed out. Everybody thought they needed to add their title, not realizing they would have to have something EXTREMELY rare, for it to not already be listed.

I'm in the EU and only use Discogs for buying, 99% from sellers likewise in the EU. I don't know if it's a US-only thing, or if it's the specific music I'm interested in (mostly 70s/80s punk/post-punk) but I've never seen issues with fake sellers. Quite the opposite, the vast majority of sellers I've dealt with have been absolutely excellent.

This reminds me of when the internet started hurting record sales - primarily because the record companies were too obstinate to partner with online entities to work towards a feasible solution in the beginning. The film studios did it right - they dropped catalog DVDs down to $7 while keeping new releases avoided $20. The music company kept CDs at $19 and don’t adapt and lost a lot. Whenever an industry does well - in this case vinyl - huge companies come in, strictly for their profit, to suck the lifeblood out of it and steal away what made things good in the first place. It is horrible see - especially bandcamp which has done so much to champion artists. I fear that the industry may take a hit and we will continue to need to support our underground indie labels and bands and brick and mortar shops to sustain things. That Qrates thing s disturbing. too - it reminds me of the Pledge music fiasco from a few years back where bands like Swervedriver and Failure got hosed as did all the fans.

My biggest gripe with discogs is the wantlist. Do I really have to add every pressing just to see what's available? Let's take Introducing the beatles, 183 different pressings. A lot of counterfeits, unofficials, or bootlegs, whatever you want to call them. Perhaps I am ok with an unofficial release, does that mean I have to clog up my wantlist with 183 different versions of a single album just to see what is available? I find myself not even bothering with a wantlist and subsequently looking for other avenues to purchase my vinyl from. Just my two cents. Thanks for the heads up on what is happening in the community and I look forward to seeing more of your videos. Keep spinning!

Why can't I filter these results to show me items from selected countries. And while we're at it I am not interested in any vinyl graded as VG or lower. It would be much more valuable to me when I open my inbox knowing that all the results presented to me are something I would actually buy.

Another issue with pop market is that they will put up discogs marketplace listings on color variants of records, when they are actually selling the black vinyl variant. They price it at the standard black vinyl price, and write in the description that the color cannot be verified. it drives me absolutely nuts. it makes people selling the actual color variant look like they are super overpriced and messes with sales history when people inevitably fall for it.

I have about 25 records currently for sale on Discogs (mostly duplicates -- titles I've bought twice because I'm disorganized and apparently my short-term memory isn't very good). I've sold about 5 in the last three months. I think I'll just pull them all down now and take whatever I can get for them by trading them in at a local record store.

Me being a Bandcamp member, I don't understand why the last change of ownership should be the end of it. It's a service for musicians at first and the goal is very 'capitalistic' - it's to get the money to the artists at a moderate fee to keep the service profitable and alive. The vinyl part is only an additional gimmick and even if it where stopped completely (i don't expect that, because apparently it's profitable as long as the current vinyl hype lasts), wouldn't be the end of Bandcamp. eg.: in the 80s we worked with one of the commercial agencies here in germany who charged a lot more for their services (25-30%) and record labels that only paid You real small revenues below 30%. Besides that I don't really understand, why one would take a high-quality digital recording (if You're not into 'compression wars') and imho cripple it by remastering to a much lower level of tonal range (40-15000Hz), narrower stereo range and much less dynamics, the Vinyl campaigning platform is unchanged as I see for now.

I’m an eBay reseller so I’m used to the fees coming from the shipping cost too. I just assume the reason is so you can’t charge more for shipping and skirt the fees. If you have an item you want to sell for $50 but instead price it at $40 and roll $10 into the shipping cost you’re evading the fees if shipping costs aren’t charged the percentage too. Kinda sucks, but it is what it is. Discog’s fees are still lower than eBay.

The Mondo soundtracks and scores sound freaking atrocious. I have been burned so many times to the point where I'm not buying anything else from them music related. I was just gifted Oppenheimer on vinyl and this has to be the worst sounding new album I own.

You didn't hit Discogs hard enough. In their defense, they were one of the few platforms that wasn't taking a cut of the shipping.

Shocking that you own a record store, and still don't know how to find sales history.

Ebay dips fees from shipping. Second VC channel that doesn’t seem to know that. Companies copy other companies until all of them are doing it.

I wonder if Qrates is running into the same kind of sustainability issues that drove PledgeMusic to its grave.

I use discogs as I have no choice as I live in Australia and what I collect I can not find much if any in Australia I'm getting sick of sellers on discogs that can't respond to u with photos or any reply about a sale I'm not saying there all like this as I've had some wonderful experiences also I guess it's a case of good and bad But sellers with 70 or more bad reviews should not be selling records Some them are shocking to read U gotta be careful out there

Discogs is a curse on record collecting. Discogs has created a greedy market with many novice non collector punters buying and selling just for profits. I say "get a real job and leave the few remaining bargains for the true music lover"

I don't like Discogs. The prices are unrealistic. I hope they go for good.
