| I just received two orders in the mail.. and i'm hella happy because i now just added 8 tracks to my repitoire(spelling??) and the tracks are bomb so i'm ing happy, and i haven't gotten records in a while.. but after listening to them and going about my everyday business.. i'm realizing that i just spent like over $100 (damn the UK pound being worth more than a US dollar, its deceiving to look at the order and see it cost 31.04 but it really equals about $47 us dollars) and now i also realize that i'm pretty broke and won't be able to get new tracks for at least another month :whip: |

Well, 8 records is a lot.
Familiarize yourself with those 8, before you even have the urge to buy anything else! |

| damn.. 45 records?? in one purchase.. thats insane.. yes i will have much fun w/ these 8 new tracks.. im a slow builder of records.. i don't even have a hundred yet and i been at it for about a year and a half now.. but i also sell a lot of stuff i get so thats probably y my collection goes nowhere.. i gotta sell old stuff to buy new stuff.. but hey, getting new stuff is fun! |

trust me.. i'm quite used to it.. buying records isn't new to me but damn how often do u get a lot of 30? and do u like all 30 tracks? i dunno, i guess im kinda picky w/ what i actually want to spend money w/ because me having money is a rare occasion, so i try to only grab stuff i REALLY REALLY want.. ya kno wat im saying? but sheit, if i had cash to blow, i'd pick up anything i remotely thought was worth it:stongue: |

i know the feeling dude.
just picked up my techs yesterday, $1488 canadian with the taxes and all.
i've bought about $300 of records in the last while, off of ebay and dancerecords.com.
no, make that $400 i paid $78 for one track i really love (the gamemaster).
now, i am broke as . but oh well, i will be mixing soon.
wanna know the worst part? i don't have needles or a mixer yet, so right now, my techs are just sitting in my closet.
yet more money i have to spend. oh well.. what is money for other than spending?
better than blowing it on pot like i used to! |

well.. i got each record for $4 / each, they were used... and this dude had about 170 he was looking to get rid of... so I pawed through his collection and found 45 tracks that I knew.. we have the same taste in music.. so it worked out great!
but now i wanna buy more... but i shouldnt, i should spend time learning these ones! i think i'll save the cash for a nice coffin and a DJM600 :D

Guys, I wanna ask you something a little unrelated:
I really want to buy a certain record, which is available @ Juno and some other online stores. Problem is, it's stupid to buy just one record and pay $12-15 for the shipping, which is even more expensive. However, I REALLY REALLY want this record right now, and don't want to wait till I find some other tunes that I can buy with this one, to justify the shipping cost (and which can take a while). What do you suggest? I'll be paying a total of about $22 for a single record. |

why not have a local record shop order it? they could just have it added to thier next shipment
record shops usually don't charge anything high for a special order -- it just comes in with thier next shipment and they hold it for you... atleast that's how it works around here |
