Interesting. Never sold on there and don't buy much but I do like the data base.

Have only bought a few on Discogs but the database is top notch!

Only bought a few items.

Preferred old look database.

Too many pillocks and pedantics.

Bought but never sold, my selling tends to be TM or offloading to friends or local retailers. Losing the database would be a major drama.

I don't mind buying something for $1 that later (to my surprise) turns out to be going for +$500 on Discogs. It makes me feel very wise and superior to mere mortal vinyl buyers. But if there was no database the opposite could occur. Gasp!

Maybe they are owned by Warner/Discovery and getting the chop with TV3..
