1. The Producers
2. I don't buy Promos, I want the Full Release
3. I vary in Labels
4. Picture Discs and Colored Vinyl are a given
What cha'll think?!

white labels and test presses for the win.
full releases are cool but are the same as the white labels so why not just get them a little earlier.
mp3's and you get the songs even earlier :)

with classic happy hardcore you gotta get the full release (and picture sleeve if available)
and
test press or white label of same record
value goes through the rooooof!

White labels and test presses are rare and more valuable normally 1-20 are pressed and will be the best pressed vinyl as they are the first to use the stamp.

I like my white labels. It's always good to have promo's before they hit the shelves

About the only White Label I have that I care about is Force & Styles - "Heart of Gold"! I also Have the Original Full Release of Bang! - "Shooting Star"! I spin Hardcore Breaks mostly, so those are all EPs, I shop at Choice!

depends on how badly I want the track and if they are going to press any more...a lot of times I'll just wait for the full release
try not to buy picture discs as the sound quality on most of them is diminished from a regular release. love me some colored vinyl though

Really? I find that picture discs sound better than regular releases due to the heavier vinyl stock.
