Consider this a sister thread to the Bandcamp one. From Brooklyn Vegan:
Third Man, Drag City, Numero Group & more indie labels selling rarities via Discogs Daily Dig initiative
Quote:
Online music marketplace Discogs has just launched the Discogs Daily Dig, an initiative to support indie record labels during the coronavirus pandemic. Each day they will focus on a different indie label that will sell rarities, test pressings, out-of-print releases, and back catalog through Discogs. It started today (5/5) with Numero Group and here’s the first week’s schedule:- Tuesday, May 5 – Numero Group
- Wednesday, May 6 – Captured Tracks
- Thursday, May 7 – Burger Records
- Friday, May 8 – Trouble In Mind
- Saturday, May 9 – Stones Throw
- Sunday, May 10 – Drag City
- Monday, May 11 – Third Man Records
Follow Discogs Facebook or Twitter for more info on each day’s Daily Dig.

As far as I can tell, the "Daily Digs" don't last a day, but until they run out of stuff. Here's a more colorful description by Drag City:
Quote:
Hey gang, Discogs much? Drag City at Discogs much? Well, you've never done it this way before. Order direct from the Drag City shop on Discogs , kicking off at 9am EST on Sunday, May 10th (and forthwith, while supplies last!). The whole catalog will be there, including a few deep pulls from our archives - no, not test-pressings! That would be like selling our children (or their old onesies, anyway) - some long OOP items are being posted for launch day however, and we'll have other things posted there in the not-too-distant- not just new releases, but slightly-ding'd (NM- or VG+? The debate rolls on....) old titles at discount for all you financially strapped and/or OG freaks.
We've got plans for Discogs! And soon, we'll know what they are. In the meantime, stop by and say hello - it's not the only store in town, but every new one is another bright ray of sunshine in this shite-besmirched world in which we chose to live in.
