[QUOTE="Howy, post: 843744, member: 17716"] Got to say, from a buyers perspective Discogs is a minefield! I'm sick of sellers taking ages to dispatch orders, sellers not having items i've ordered, after i've payed (usually the records you want most!) And the usual grading problems. The last lot, i ordered 16 records all overgraded, of which 4 were supposed to be mint. 1 described as 'a pristine copy' by the seller, another as 'awesome'. - they had been hammered. Looked like the guy had been playing frisbee with them in the park with an over enthusiastic Pit Bull! This from a seller with nearly 500 sales and 100% rating! How does that happen? Also, a couple of times recently i have trawled through a sellers items (different sellers) and excitedly added items to my basket ready to buy, only to look further and find they are selling records by certain disgraced pop stars, well f**k that, click - basket empty. I aint buying from those sellers again. Just goes to show some sellers will try and flog anything. I suppose its best to stick to sellers you can trust. . . [/QUOTE]
