Ah I hear ya man, we've recently switched postmen as well. actually had a few different ones that seem like they're rotating now. Old guy used to bring 'em right up to the door and ring the door bell and physically hand them to me sometimes instead of putting 'em in the large parcel bin, always thought that was great.
Ooh, hi mate :p^ oh hai
Yeah, I saw your comment about it on Discogs haha. Most label stores are doing the free digital/sticker thing these days. I usually order from them, but with the ones that use Databeats (RAM, Headz, Critical, Bad Taste, etc) I usually order from Redeye or Juno because Databeats charges so much more for US shipping that it's cheaper for me to buy the digital separately in those cases. The Commercial Suicide store is also a little expensive for shipping (although not as bad as Databeats), but they always release early and it's my favorite label so I always buy directly from there.I was actually playing my copy of the Seba & Paradox release today, sounds great (Check out the runout groove by the way) I picked it up direct from the Paradox store because they give you stickers and digital for free haha
My regular guy will (would?) always knock if he had a vinyl delivery and I was home. (That's always fun when my dog is in the house...I have a big, friendly Lab who loves everyone and always comes to the door with me!) I have two mailboxes; the official one is out at the street and I have a secondary, flip-top one at the door. If I'm not at home he leaves it in there. Whoever delivered the Seba & Paradox vinyl today left it on the porch, standing upright. Some will toss it onto the porch and leave it flat, and some will leave it between my screen door and wooden door and leave a note in my main mailbox telling me that it's there.Ah I hear ya man, we've recently switched postmen as well. actually had a few different ones that seem like they're rotating now.
