hutlock is just a whining crybaby piece of shit.

Around 5,000-6,000 in, I was genuinely starting to have some kind of hallucinatory experience and several very deep universal truths revealed themselves.
1) there is some REALLY REALLY godawful cover art in the Blowout Bin. A lot of this directly lead to the hallucinations. I was flipping through SO fast and then one of those covers that was just an absolute CAR CRASH of design would pop up. I kind of wish I had started a thread of them now so at least I would know for sure if they were even real.
2) apparently if you were into any type of club or dance music of any genre whatsoever between 2007-2015, there is something for you in the Blowout Bin. Into the Cream sound? You’re in luck. Fancy reliving your time in Ibiza? It’s all there for you. Wondering whatever became of Judge Jules? Find out here!
3) you really have to wonder about the rest of the world when you look at all of this because at least 70% of the bin is from somewhere outside of the US/Canada/UK. Maybe more. But some of these things just look SO ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE, it makes you think... does this just look rotten because that isn’t what we do here, in this market? Is there really some axis of music fan in some obscure European country that just eats this s*** up with a spoon? Or in Asia?! Do people collect it like we collect Beatles, Stones, etc? If so, WHY?!? You can’t judge a book by its cover but you can sure judge a lot of these CDs by theirs, and I judged a whole lot of them to be pretty much worthless. No offense meant to anyone from any other cultures or countries. Jussayin.
4) bouncing off that last one... who exactly does Deep Discount think is going to buy this crap?! Even at 80% off a lot of this is landfill. How long do they leave it up there before they just write it off as dead stock and send it all to the recycle bin? How much money is wrapped up in all of this? The mind reels...
Anyway, as you can see, I learned some really important lessons on my trip through the Bin, but also opened my mind to a whole host of questions that keep us collectors and bargain hunters awake at nights... and still coming back for more.
