They'll ignore it.Robotic Empire: roboticempire.com/ never dealt withAlliance talked my way into an account, supposedly the biggest wholesaler of vinyl on the planet, responsible for “48% of all vinyl sales” on gods black earth in the last year. but wft. what a let down. Sure they got buttloads but it aint at wholesale prices. Theyre just a goddamn distributor with Big Business prices. As I said to the very helpful businessman sales rep guy, I can buy almost all this stuff from the actual source or their exclusive distributor at way cheaper. These "wholesale prices" are higher than what the lp is priced at in stores. Let alone 3x higher than the cheapest copy of it on discogs. Think $25 "wholesale" copies of Rumours and Kenny fuckhead Rogers. May as well deal with their mailorder outlet "Collectors Choice" and their barking mad insanely low international shiping rates. $29 to send 20 LP's? Fucking how? Every other place will quote you $110 shipping for that lot. www.ccmusic.com/

Almost curious... but I know it would be dozens hundreds of copies of immovable dregs.
Still, exclusive distro for Sympathy For Record Industry label...
Plus still ticked off that this distro emailed me about the blowout 99 cent LP sale (FISTULA FFS) then wouldnt accept my order and said they were "all gone". I emailed back on the same fucking day ffs!

wft is going onnnn here. US$130 shipping for 12 measly records is utterly unconscionable and I will have no part of it. Why on earth would I do that? Are they coming via Concorde? I can get 12 lp's sent internationally from big bad cc.music for $34. $130 vs $34. FFS.

Turns out it is sickeningly easy to order online from Disk Union. Captain, I fear the worst. There are no rocky outcrops or turbulent seas to deter us from reaching Destination; Bankruptcy now.
Freepost inside Japan over 5,000 yen and, finally, instead of being arsefucked by the exchange rate when I try to buy from abroad, suddenly my paypal $$ in US currency make me King Of The High Finance Spacklords when I deign to purchase shit priced in japanese yen.
"Oh, that Zeni Geva LP priced tantalisingly at 1900 yen? Suddenly it is only US$13 to me. Into the cart it goes. That Spray Paint LP priced at 1,000 yen? It is but $6 to me. Cart time".

I thought they would be absolute cunts but they are very easy and flexible to deal with. Some good wholesale rates too. They have an insane carrot on a stick too; get to a wholesale order of US$1300 and they will do f ree worldwide shipping. Which with $1300 worth of stuff would run them $300, $400 in shipping costs I guess. Although I guess a few wholesalers would do that for a humungous order of that size. "Collectors Choice" and their barking mad insanely low international shiping rates. $29 to send 20 LP's? Fucking how? Every other place will quote you $110 shipping for that lot www.ccmusic.com/
Oh wow their shipping costs have gone up bigtime. Just cued up 20 lp's in their cart to check and it's no longer $29. Now $68. Guess cos they're using big nasty arseholes DHL who will concorde your shit to you at record speeds then rape you blind on the bill then desecrate your still-crying corpse with some fucking customs import taxes. CUNNNNNTZ.

...although if you get 3 lots of 20 lp's for a total of 60 LP's the postage quoted is $150.... which is a very reasonable $2.50 international shipping per LP.......

That last Werewolf Jones LP on Big Neck is insanely good. One of my favorite bands around right now.
Also highly recommend Mononegatives if you’re into that devo punk thing (done very very well)

I spend most of my time trawling around wholesale outlets so havent really delved into "bandcamp" yet. It looks like a brilliant way to take the power back from The Man. Do most labels have those cheapo bundles? I see so many comments on Discogs releases saying " dont pay scalpers prices for this. you can still get it directly from their bandcamp for $5 ffs"

Do most labels have those cheapo bundles? I see so many comments on Discogs releases saying " dont pay scalpers prices for this. you can still get it directly from their bandcamp for $5 ffs" It was heavily mocked on Termbore when it first started for the name, which is redonklous, but it's surprising the amount of musicians that are showing up onit. There's a Bandcamp Friday every so often when the artists/labels get 100%. Records and the dreaded postage I know nothing about! modernenglish.bandcamp.com/album/mesh-laceharrypussy.bandcamp.com/sunramusic.bandcamp.com/crass.bandcamp.com/lydialunch.bandcamp.com/

Relapse: wholesale.relapse.com/accounts/sign_inwas curious for a squizz but not for me fusetron always had a good selection of odd sorts that no one else much carried. chris that runs it is a top fella and good to deal with. not that i buy records from overseas anymore since the cost of shipping crisis, but if i did i'd be keeping an eye on fusetron and forced exposure as well.

Always heard the name around but for some reason just thought it was a small label Had a squizz, 591 items under T alone? www.fusetronsound.com/pages/artists-tThis looks promising. Until a few clicks later you see that every single item is sold out. "Ohhhh we used to have that Terminals 7" for $3 but YOU weren't there in time." Just delete the fucking thing then instead of teasing for shit you aint got anymore you blowhard showoffs. FFS.
