Surface Noise | Latest Freestyle (A-Side Edition)
Monday Nov 18, 2024
Monday Nov 18, 2024
Ever had a terrible experience with an online record buyer? A guy (or gal) that was simply the WORST to deal with? Put on a warm fire, sit back in a good chair, pour a beverage of choice and listen as Arnaldo (Fidelios_Frequency) shares a tale following the latest SURFACE NOISE (A-Side) that would irritate any person trying to sell records. Following some discussion on the latest Rhino Hi-Fi release of The Stooges (self titled debut), another crack in the case is made when it's discovered that the buyer has now listed his own copy of Arnaldo's record for sale on his Discogs store. Is it a "switcheroo" scenario? Is there flim-flam afoot? Only you can solve a mystery, and a mystery we have on our hands during the latest FREESTYLE here on Vinyl Community Podcasts!
