Profile

I've been collecting music for about 40 years now. I've been contributing to the database for 10+ years.

UKRAINE SITUATION:
I no longer sell to Russia or Belarus due to Russian's agression against Ukraine. I am also not selling to countries who have either not condemned Russia's actions, or actually support Russia, including Brazil, China, Cuba, India, Iran, Myanmar, Nicaragua, Pakistan, Syria, and Venezuela.
Paypal stopped operating in Russia from March 5, Discogs on March 22.

SELLER EXPERIENCE:
I know what the buyer or a serious collector expects of the items and packaging. I've bought myself from dozens of sellers, at Discogs and elsewhere. I know what it feels like to receive an item in VG condition when you expected Mint. Years ago I also sold records on eBay. On Discogs I started selling CD's in November 2017 and added vinyl in June, 2018. I am based in Finland.

STRICT GRADING:
My grading is quite strict. I do my best to meet the Discogs grading standards.
If an item I'm selling is sealed it is mentioned specifically so in the description. A "Mint" sleeve does not indicate 'sealed' (but it does mean there are no flaws).

ACTUAL COST ONLY:
I charge for shipping only what the Finnish postal service charges me, no additional handling or Paypal charges. Paypal transaction fee is on me.
To ensure that LP/12" sleeves don't get damaged, I use quality parcels made for purpose. Check my Seller Terms for details (link is on my shop page). The parcel costs 0.65€ and is included in the charges you see in the cart.

COMBINED SHIPPING:
Combined shipping is available. Unfortunately, if you order various formats, the Discogs shopping cart rarely calculates the combined shipping correctly. Typically, the cart shows my default shipping charge for a large parcel - which is possibly too high. But fear not, I will refund the excess shipping cost. You can obviously also send me a message before ordering.

TIPS:
If you are able to place my items in the shopping cart (items are not greyed out), I ship to your country.
International flight connections are not what they used be pre-covid, so long delays in delivery times can occur (and are beyond my control). In the autumn of 2022, delivery times have fluctuated wildly.
Sanctions on Russia may cause delays to delivery, especially to Asia.
Save on postage by removing CD jewel cases. Some basic options are shown in cart.
NOTE: If the CD wasn't released in a jewel case, the 'jewel case removed' shipping option should not be chosen!
Feel free to combine formats (check from me the exact shipping before paying).
There is a minimum order value limit of 3.98€, excluding shipping.
I pack well - Check my feedback.
Your postal address at Paypal should match with your address at Discogs - to avoid major headaches.
One CD to Europe is 7,50€, one 7" is 7,50€, one LP/12" is 18,15€.
Check my full Seller Terms, for all details on my shop page.

posted a review of ABBA - Vinyl Album Box Set. 3 months ago
They basically messed up the vinyl box. When designing the box they didn't take into account that Voyage has a gatefold sleeve, so the box just barely manages to contain everything. It's way too tight. Also, many shop descriptions claim the vinyl box... See full review

Tori Amos - Little Earthquakes - The B-Sides
posted a review of Tori Amos - Little Earthquakes - The B-Sides. 5 months ago
I forgot about two more B-sides from "Crucify", thanks for pointing that out. That makes the release even more incomplete, obviously. The core complaint still is why "Here. In My Head" is not included. That is inexcusable.

posted a review of Tori Amos - Little Earthquakes - The B-Sides. 5 months ago
Two B-sides are actually missing, "Here. In My Head" and "Smells Like Teen Spirit". It's quite clear that the intention was to include twelve tracks on this LP, already on the picture disc that was included in Little Earthquakes box set last year. The... See full review

Pointless, except for making this album available on file format, obviously... Compared to the 1998 2xCD issue, the four instrumentals aside (which are a nice addition), only one remix has been added. More worthwhile additions would have been the 1998... See full review

Thanks, I hadn't noticed that. Must check the original track.

The 'history' of this track is still a bit confusing:

Based on the scans here, the Atmosfear album came out first (2 Feb 99), the Spook 12" on 26 July. So is the album version the... See full review

That's not how Discogs works. Where releases show up on artist pages it's not up to us users.

I basically hear very little difference, only that the remaster is a lot louder. The 1991 release actually has very good sound.

AFAIK, whatever standard pressings of the studio albums were available at the time were used for this box. So basically whichever UK/Europe CD was around in 1990 could have been included here. Apparently even the budget label Fame issues have been... See full review
