well guys, i filed a complaint, as advised by members here. this was the topic: got the message from ebay that seller asked them to review the case and make the decision.. and like 10,15 min after that i got a note : eBay Customer Support has reviewed the case and made a final decision. We've considered the case carefully and decided not to issue you a refund. We're sorry this didn't work out. that was pretty fast, they didn't asked me anything.. looking for pictures, evidence or anything, don't know what to think really.. all i know is that the record is overgraded by a margine and seller got away with it.

that's the one. his NM- grade ios pretty descent, maybe above VG+ of a very strict USA grader but without that scuff, which really dnap record is NM even his 8 or NM- plays perfect this copy simply isn't that. crackles on b side especially, many little scratches seller is ignoring my messages now and that is REALLY pissing me off oh yes, and when i said i'm gonna post this on one respectfull forum, providing pictures and audio.. and if everybody say that it's overgraded i want 50% refund (custom fee included). seller said - well everybody is entitled for opinion. well i thought that goldmine standard is there just because of that - so that everyone CAN'T have their own opinion

thanks for advice. the tricky part is that i'm from Serbia and we don't have paypal so i make payments through my sister's account. she used to live in Chicago and i use her account as a balance for 2 years now maybe. don't know if paypal is going to do something and that scares me. though i believe seller is in no good situation as she send it to address not connected with paypal. what happens when you file a complaint?

this one Richard crackles are not from the pressing. when you look at the record you kinda know it's gonna be "fun" this is a loud pressing btw

.. bought a record recently. was well pleased with the price i got it for, though not using sniper program then knocked 20$ more from my pocket as a friend placed a bid few seconds too early and allowing 2nd bidder to bid up. ok, no big deal. record described as NM if not for one scuff which doesn't affect play. record arrived, i was hit with the custom fee (30$) - seller stating the full value. this wasn't mentioned on seller's page.. she changed that for their future sales after i pointed out. i would bid accordingly if i knew i was going to be hit with custom fee.. and seller is willing to cover that fee. but the biggest problem is that the record is nowhere NM grade! that scuff isn't affecting play but there are other thigs that do. B side (part 2) which i wanted to play out as well is ful of crackles. record looks like VG to VG+, has marks and little scratches. side A plays OK, definitely not NM, side B plays much much worse. seller is telling me that it is NM.. not offering return for refund, partial refund..i wanted to send pictures and audio so she can see and hear. respected seller, has a great feedback. what should i do? if asking for refund, how much should i ask?

Oh well i'm already cleaning vinyl with washing up liquid & water - so that's cool thanks

People, can styrene be treated the same as when cleaning/washing vinyl?

I bought new shure whitelabels, 165$ shipping included might use this drill to have spare ones, if i'm pleased with how they perform. thanks everybody!

That fragility concernes me.. well i'll just have to be more carefull then. What about buying used cartridges and new needles - how's that for an idea?

Thank you people.. really appreciate your help! Yeah you see Greg, that's what's pissing me off.. as much as i read there is always someone who says "it's the other way around, actually" maybe shure whitelabels are a good choice.. for now. now i'm pissed as someone bought that last Magma bag oooo damn! i have one more question - about the cartridges. How much do they wear? should i go for used cartridges and new stylus, if it's cheaper?

I'll write again... thanks for the advices people! it's a hard task as i am obviously looking for an all round stylus. It will be only used by me, at home.. and bringing them to club (where i play funk,soul and disco 45s, with some 12"s as well). I'll be doing A LOT of recording in the next period, so that's something that's important for me. Home listeining (and recording) - jazz, electronic, funk/soul/disco spectrum. I was looking at that Grado DJ200i, eliptical.. which seems a nice choice, but i've read it has a bad bad tracking.. and that's a problem when i mix electronic music with a lot of severe cueing, rewinding forward and back etc. what about cartidge use? is there any wear to them and do i only need to change the stylus basically? and how often should one change the stylus, if we are talking about very frequent usage? ok Grado DJ200i is elliptical - what about stanton 500, shure white label, concorde dj s? can someone comment the text bellow.. please don't erase it, as someone can use it.. though i addmit that there are probably very few who knows nothing about the subject like me Conical or Spherical. This tip shape resembles the tip on a ball point pen. Because of the symmetrical design, needles with conical design are the least costly to manufacture. However, they also produce the lowest level of fidelity and the greatest record wear. This is because the contact area of the diamond is restricted to two very small points, one on each side of the diamond. This places the entire downward pressure (commonly referred to as tracking force) on the two very small areas of contact, resulting in increased record wear. Conical needles are also not conducive to accurately retrieving the smaller groove modulations that represent the higher frequencies.* Conical tipped needles are best used when ruggedness and economy are the deciding factors. This type of stylus cut also minimizes the amount of surface noise, ticks, and pops that you will hear and is a good choice for those who are playing very old and beat up records. Elliptical. Also called bi-radial, this tip shape presents a knife edge to the record. This very popular tip shape provides a good balance between performance and cost. In the elliptical cut, the diamond's contact area is elongated vertically and made more narrow front to back. The greater vertical contact area distributes the tracking force over a larger area of the groove wall. This results in less pressure per square inch — hence less record wear compared to a conical shaped tip. The narrower front to back facing provides the diamond with a shape better suited to recovering smaller high frequency* groove modulations. * smaller groove modulation = deep in the groove (pit) = high frequency * bigger groove modulation = top of the groove = bass frequency

What happened with my post? Quite a long one?

Thanks for the advices guys i was looking at Grado DJ200i.. it's only 15 euros more than Shure white labels + i get replacement stylus.. but the problem is with tracking.. i will have severe cueing, backtracking when mixing electronic and i've heard that these will be no good for that. If you are the only person that's going to be using them then I'd certainly consider them. I love 'em at home. If you're using them on a rig that DJs will be using publicly then I'd look for something a little less 'fragile' in terms of 'ruggedability'. In September I went through 3 of these styli in a period of about 8 hours. Not cheap at 50 quid a throw. Regards, Dave

It's time to replace my Stanton 500 AL II I'm really really embaraced to ask for advice as i don't know anything about the subject :/ first the terminology - stylus is needle right? cartridge is the body which holds the needle, right? and there is shell... cartidge is going on the shell? https://www.juno.co.uk/products/stanton-500-al-ii-twin-cartridge/106565-01/ so this is cartridge without stylus? and it needs the shell to be placed on right? i have Technics shells, which were on the almost brand new decks, when i bought them a while ago. i'm looking at Ortofon cartridges and i don't see the need for the shell for them? there's a sale topic with one Ortofon Concorde DJ S and there's a mention of used cart and new stylus.. cart would be cartridge, right? After someone explains what is what please advise which would be some of the best buys.. playing funk,soul and disco 45s.. taking them for gigs. Also playing Jazz.. and a lot of electronic music as well. mixing, no scratching. Would like to order from Juno as i'm already ordering Magma bag through a friend who has DHL discount + no custom fees. any advice much appreciated!

I couldn't care less myself.. the only thing that would put me on the orange one is the sound quality, but there's obviously no differnce. I already have enough orange labels.. wanna bring some colour to my box

gracias

Actually the question should be: does the blue label issue sounds any worse compared to orange one?

Can anyone comment please. I don't care that much if it's first or later second issue... just care about sound quality. thanks!

oh, and how much is ebay fee on a record sold for 180$?

3 seconds is ok with me. could save me some $ in the past thanks
