MOD LANG INFOLIST 07/20/09

Hi,

yes, been a little while between lists.

We have been busy creating paths through the LP & 12" vinyl in the back room, alphabetizing shelves (gasp), organising the understock (double gasp)...almost every 12" & LP is where it can be found, amazingly enough. We're thinking it would be kinda nice for more of this to be in the shop instead of the back room, so we've extended our 98¢ vinyl sale to make some room:

10x 98¢ LPs for $7.50
20x 98¢ LPs for $10
50x 98¢ LPs for $20

and we can almost taste the moment when the 7" box jenga maze in the back will become a tidy wall of 20,000 searchable 7" singles...it will be glorious.

MOD LANG INFOLIST 05/28/09

Hi,

tons of releases again but first, some reminders of links to mod lang:

some of the stuff from the back room inc press kits, 7"s, LPs, collectibles etc are on eBay. New stuff gets added every week but by the same token stuff sells out every week! You can do a seller search for "modlang" (one word) or this link should take you there: mod lang on ebay
also, we've just started to put a few things up on discogs: mod lang on discogs

and as always if you're not seeing what you're looking for you can always e-mail or call us with your wants because there is a ton of stuff in stock that's not listed anywhere & we are quite handy at special orders, too.

and lastly, though we want you to be a real shopper, a real person, maybe even a real friend...if you want to be our virtual friend you can do that too at www.facebook.com/modlangrecords where we will not ask you to take any quizzes, nor will we update you too often on what we're eating & also: www.myspace.com/modlangrecords where we will not be spamming leaflets into your comments.

MOD LANG INFOLIST 04/18/09
Hello,

The first section below lists some of those items, I've included the Sonic Youth- the eternal pre-purchase info in that section even though the pre-purchase deadline is further down the line & not just for the day.

In honor of International Record Store Day, we're having a little sale for the weekend here at Mod Lang. We have so much used vinyl that wants to hit the floor & not enough room to put it all so the used vinyl (excluding the collectible vinyl) is 10% off both Saturday & Sunday. OK, OK, all the used CDs will also be 10% off. And for all you crate diggers & people thinking of starting/expanding your LP collections: all 98¢ vinyl is 50¢ and if you get 50x 98¢ vinyl we'll do it for $20... As we get giddy with the excitement of our own holiday we may get to be in a wheeler dealer mood, especially if you bring us gifts. After all, there all all kinds of gifts we will give you with purchase on Record Store Day including (while supplies last, of course):

* merge label sampler cd free with any purchase
* a variety of free 7"s to choose from for any purchase of 3 or more vinyl items

* as well as the usual selection of free items we always give away with purchase...


ALSO, ever wondered about the stuff in the back rooms? We've been selling more rarities on eBay, some punkrock singles, some 'zines, all sorts of goodies if you do a seller search for "modlang" but I think this link will get you there:
