rhopping5 Record Store Day should be called Record Store First Five Seconds from now on. I waited in line at a Newbury Comics in a suburb of Mass. I got there at 9:30am, store opened at 10:00. Already the line was 15-20 people deep. Once the doors opened, the first three people in line (all were together) rushed in and grabbed one of each record released limited for the day. They didn't even look, or browse, they just grabbed. I knew that their purchases would be on ebay within the hour.

The Soundchecks (the two the store had) were gone by the time I walked in, along with everything else. I was about to grab the Nirvana release to sell on ebay because that's what my melt was telling me to do, but decided to just leave pissed off.

On a side note: Can these "Ebay Stores," and I mean the actual record stores w/ a location and building with an ebay account, be selling the Soundchecks on ebay? That can't be legal, can it?
