Some of you have ordered things off of Discogs, right? Is it legit/safe? Not gonna steal your credit card number? Here's a few things to keep in mind: 1. Never be afraid to ask for pictures of the item or ask questions in general if they don't mention playback. if it's unopened skip this one.
2. Check their reviews. Don't settle for less than 99% (this is just an in general assumption). 3. Use paypal
4. If this your first time buying DO NOT I REPEAT D O N O T use paypal Friends And Family and if they request it NO BUENO you do not buy from them. 5. Be familiar with the grading system. Sometimes someones Good Plus is really a Very Good. I over look mine and harshly grade. I don't sell, but if I did I would note any issues.
6. If you do not want it shipped via Media Mail talk to the seller and be willing to pay more for a quicker ship time.
7. They are human so if it's not out the same day it's cool.
I will be adding more to this so look out for a possible next post.

Thank you! What I was looking at on there will probably have to wait, though. The band is on an "indefinite hiatus" or, in other words, they're broken up, so part of me feels like with how old the album is, it's not going to be snatched up.

I got myself and my sister one of Hayley Williams' "Sanctuary" candles for Christmas and I'm about halfway through mine and I'm on the fence as to whether I should get another one yet. On one hand, Mine still has plenty of life left in it and shipping from Apotheke to Canada isn't exactly cheap. On the other hand, I don't know how long the candle will be available for and I don't want to wait until I'm too late...decisions, decisions.

I've used 'Discogs' about five times before to buy Taylor and other artist CDs and it seems safe to me. It's like 'eBay' or other reselling websites.

Update: Olivia’s U.K. store now has signed products! It appears to only be a signed art card. There are quite a few cool bundles on her U.K. store! Dang, I’m kind of jealous! shopuk.oliviarodrigo.com/

I do not like this Olivia Rodrigo girl (at all really), but damn I wish Taylor had that many signed products at once. :/ Even someone like Selena Gomez seemed to have a lot of signed products, or Halsey or The Weeknd or Louis Tomlinson or any other artist. I know Taylor is busy, but it disappoints me she doesn't know how much a lot of her fans love signed items. I'm surprised Taylor never tried signing even 'Folklore' cassettes and/or vinyl records. I wonder who decides what an artist sells. Because it seems like every other 'Universal Music' atrist offers four plus things signed before an album is to be released.

I 100% agree except on the don't settle for less than 99%. Personally I settle for 95% for higher, but that is just me. I have used Discogs 30+ times over the last year and have had no/very minor problems. It is a great site to get limited, special, or deluxe editions of albums! I have also sold on Discogs and it was very easy! I currently have two items for sell.

You Know I was looking through embroidered Taylor Swift sweaters on etsy (which there are oodles of btw) and I thought to myself "I bet you there's a Paramore one" so I search it and there's na-da. There's a bunch of old merch dupes, one Petals for Armor hoodie that looks like official merch (but I can't tell), a thong based off of the song "All I Wanted" (which I blame tik tok for) and that's about it. It's gotten me thinking, emo kids (former or current) would 100% go crazy for merch that doesn't look like the crazy stuff we wore in 2009. Like could imagine how nice an embroidered black parade sweater would be, or Paramore, shoot even Blink 182. There's a whole untapped market here. I wish I owned an embroidery machine (and I wish I knew how to operate one, that would help) and had enough drawing skills to make designs. There's like a whole untapped market here.

Speaking of Paramore/Hayley Williams I just discovered this exists and even though I already have both albums the record collector in me is screaming TAKE ALL MY MONEY.

I just ordered one of the signed Joker and the Queen signed single CDs from Ed Sheeran's website. I don't think Taylor is signing them but I figured Ed Sheeran's signature would be cool to have too! People are already trying to sell them on eBay for $200 which is absolutely insane considering the CD itself is 99 cents (in euros+shipping). If anyone is interested the link to them is here.

I didn't think I'd want one at first, but I did end up buying a fairly cheap resale one (maybe $25 CAD maximum?) including shipping. Because I've gotten more into collecting Taylor CDs releases. I have a long way to go (a lot of releases from different countries I still don't have yet). It would be really cool if Taylor sold more signed items like Ed Sheeran does. He's sold so many signed single CDs lately.

I got one too. It's really cool looking and will make a great addition to my CD singles collection.
