No sticker bowl either. Amateur.
Aaaaagh
Just spent 10 minutes doom scrolling on instagram before I got one of his videos. Does this mean he’s peaked?!
comments under that post on facebook
Someone prompted an AI image generator with “strange looking man in bathrobe eats chicken finger from a dog bowl.”
He do look like he is about to burst into tears on occasions whilst dancing.
I’ve never sold records on Discogs before and this week I sold two. One for $200 and the other for $100. After fees etc I walked away with about $220. That’s taking the piss.
sounds like you did something wrong there - doesn’t make sense?
For the $100 record I got $93.50 after they’d paid shipping etc.
For the $200 record I got $174.07.
Total $267.57 and then $25.40 to ship is $242.17.
What dues Discogs usually take?
Usually around 10% overall
here’s an example of a recent sale of mine. Maybe it’s different for UK taxation costs?
I looked it up and it’s effectively me paying the tax for Michigan and New Jersey where these records went. It’s all good though. Better than the $1 a piece a chances offered me for the whole collection.
He was just on the BBC’s Euro 2024 closing montage playing records and talking about the teams.

Beat me to it lol
FFS! There’s seemingly no escape

Now!
Sent a copy of a record, buyer is now claiming it’s a reissue - it isn’t - and he wants me to send him a refund but has kindly offered to take the record he now has for $20. It’s a $200 record.
I think that concludes my record selling foray on Discogs.
my advice isn’t worth squat, but here’s what i would do.
offer to refund them in full but demand that it’s contingent upon them sending the record back to you. assuming shipping’s reasonable, you can offer to pay them to ship it back to you. hopefully that isn’t overly expensive. (let’s say it’s) $15 to get a $200 record back, that isn’t too wild of an investment.
once it’s back in your hands, you can still give them positive feedback with something like “whoops, a misunderstanding but we worked it out” even though it’s complete bullpuckey. if they refuse to ship it back to you, then you have some ground to stand on with the discogs or paypal folks. you might not be able to prove that you sent an original, but they can’t prove that you sent them a reissue. you eat the shipping costs, but at least you have a $200 record back in your hands (or a full payment because this jerkoff can’t prove this was a re-ish).
and - and i’m absolutely not above this - there’s a certain amount of window before you can drop neg feedback on someone. i’ve absolutely waited until the last day or two and then been like “this guy is a crook and the whole world knows it” and that shit lasts for life.
Just sent him an email with “my bad, I’ll refund you plus shipping, sorry you didn’t get the version you wanted, etc.” and within seconds he said I should just refund him $180 and he’ll keep the record because “shipping is too much of a hassle”. So I responded with, “no, it’s ok I’m in New York next week and I see you’re in Newark, I’ll just swing by and get it from you”.
He’s going on holiday apparently.
Discogs buyers who don’t pay for orders straight away…
what about sellers like me who take forever to post the orders? haha
