Yes, I am but that's not the point....

Man, I've been REALLY lucky in that all the vinyl I've bought via the internet has been in good shape with few exceptions EXCEPT for my quest for a copy of Third Stage by Boston. I've bought THREE copies, all sealed and ALL freakin' WARPED. What gives?? Is there a conspiracy out there for me NOT to listen to Third Stage on LP????

    No, I know that if I get my google on there are some theories on how to un-warp 'em. Shoot, with three copies, what have I got to lose??

    Not much, but maybe two copies, if you have some self-restraint.

    Hi niner,
    I'd be interested in some dire straits depending on what you have. Please let me know if you make an inventory.

    Is Third Stage alot like the first 2 Boston albums? My .02.

    Anyone that knows anything about LP's will tell you that most 90%+ are not worth much in the market at all. Of course there are a few limited presses and such that bring a higher dollar, but precentage wise it's pretty low.

    No, I'll spell it out for you. Read more and post less.

    Jeeze, a third of the posts in this thread belong to you; and at what value added? I'm all for a derail/humor post but good grief man...sometimes brevity is a GOOD thing.

    I don't want to offend you but some times the posts with" :eek: " or " :D " or a "+1" are unneccessary.

    PLEASE don't take it as a slap on the hand, just some friendly advice.
