Internet music sellers

Anyone notice that the usual Audiophile sellers on the net have raised their

list prices and then discounted them. So to increase sales they have an eternal

sale going on to keep the volume up the only problem is there is no real sale price.

My complaint with them is TRUST and not feeling being taken advantage of.

I have many times asked sellers how is the sound quality of that particular release

and they always say it sounds great until it's delivered and I put it on my TT to

find out that the sound quality is not that great for $30-$50 (or more) record.

When I can buy a RVG remastered Blue Note cd for under $10 from a Amazon

sub dealer delivered that sound almost as good as a Music Matters vinyl for $40

you have to think about what's more important the music or the sound for the

difference in $30!!.

So when it is one of my favorite recordings I do feel it is worth it. Let me say it's MoFis which I have buying since the late 70's are the most inconsistent of all labels and when they started to do CDs they were the worst of the worst. I have recently purchased a few MoFi vinyl's and have been disappointed and some were highly reviewed for sound quality by you know who. (The vinyl crusader of the human race). Hint.............. he writes for Stereophile Thank you

I have to say I have been disappointed in the sound quality most of the time. But I have been impressed with about 30% of my purchases in the last five years-about 100 records.
