hello folks, here is a brief update with a few new things. there is
more on the way soon i think - yes, a big update from stickfigure and
a life at these speeds restock and a tonne of shotmaker related
records. woo. i hope there is some stuff here to interest folks, i
understand that some people prefer to order direct from labels that
put stuff out these days due to the fear of missing out on an
uber-limited release, fair do's. i guess it's nothing new, but it
sometimes seems like people are commodifying the latest hot release
that everyone must snap up at all costs unless you *gasp* miss out on
yet another record. don't fall for the bullshit, your life won't end
if you don't own that pine 7" with a fancy cloth cover or if you have
to wait a couple of months for the gospel / kodan armada split 10"
because the label is insanely hard to get in touch with. for reals. i
will try and restock everything that is in demand as usual. that's why
i am still doing this distro after almost three years even though it
can sometimes seem like a pain when i get stuck with records that i
can't sell because i goofed up somewhere. anyways, you folks are the
kings and queens :-) (enough with the rambling already andy, hurry up
and show me the list of records so we can commodify hardcore together!)

anyway, as ever - to get stuff off this list, just reply to this
e-mail, i wil l get back to you. thanks.

hope all is well.

love,

andy x

END NOTES:
* i have second hand stuff:
http://mysite.freeserve.com/andy_malcolm/secondhand.txt
* mix cd: send me a cdr and i'll burn you a bunch of mp3's to a playable
CDR.
* requests: if there is anything you want on the wholesale list at
stickfigure: http://stickfiguredistro.com/records/wholesale/ - i can
probably get it for you (but be aware - a lot of the stuff listed is
unavailable i have found). give me a shout, but be reasonable, 2 or
3 things a person is best, and if you want to make requests i'd
prefer that also you buy a bunch of stuff that is in stock too
otherwise it's not fair on me :)
