    Shit, using a portable is already on the verge of a 5 pager.


    This shit will probably hit 15.

    Rick from Orpheus in Arlington VA would say that using a portable is, in fact, shoplifting.

    I'm not kidding.

    i do.

    wow.

    here's a question, what is more retarded: stealing in secret, or freely admitting you're a low-class creep who steals when no one has even asked you?

    hmmmmm............

    Switching price tags is weak as hell. If you do it you are a dishonest thief essentially. I hope that first post was a joke, otherwise you just outed yourself as a toy.

    I can't f*cking believe you guys. How can you just assume that he is switching price tags to get records cheaper? You are all assholes.

    No, I know....I seriously think Rick would be less offended by switching the tags, and I am deadly serious.

    At your own risk.

    He told me letting people listen to records before buying decreases sales. Considering what was said over in the portable thread, he may be correct.

    Hahahahahahahah. I've spent a lotta money in his store the few times I've been. Perhaps I should try to play the preferred (yet infrequent) customer card.
    Switching tags is wack. The only thing I'd be tempted to do is to take a tag off his stuff and see if the price got better or worse.

    That could mean you actually got some good stuff or just minted up your Born to Run.

    I'm happy to see that we are both taking this seriously.

    who here likes to steal money from their moms purse to buy pot?

    why is it wack ?

    its not like doing that in every Frickin' stores. if the shit is priced right i don't do that. and i DO find most of the people on here have this etiquette, they know the know, and they do things right, i respect this and i don't cross my lines.

    but muthafuckas charge 50+ for a CTI and tells you its a rare record right in your eyes ? or switching a bashed to fuck copy from their back room and charge you the same price? c'mon, who's wacker? the price tag switch or the guy who's trying to rip people off ?

    In all honesty, i don't think I have EVER switched a price sticker, though i have seen people do it and get away with it. I probably would have tried it in my younger years if I had thought I'd get away with it.

    I may have switched records in covers to get a better condition copy for a slightly lower price though - although I seriously can't remember an instance of having actually done this.

    and from my fathers wallet when i was a troubled teen.
    still feel like an ass for it. the worst was getting caught in the act on a saturday morning sneaking in their room.

    Know a guy who used to switch the tags of walmart spray paint onto krylon to get krylon for like $1 each.

    But me personally, nope. I got caught for stealing cigars when I was like 13 at rite aid. Ever since then, thievery is a 99.9% no go.

    why are you compelled to talk about it? It doesn't make you honest, it just makes you an asshole.
