Handpicked.

Not algorithmic.
Not obvious.
Worth your time.

The process

We do the digging.

You give us the evidence. We make the call. Every selection starts with your taste and ends with a record worth keeping.

  1. 01

    Tell us

    Five albums. Five artists. The stuff you cannot stand.

  2. 02

    Choose

    Set the record budget and decide how far we should roam.

  3. 03

    We hunt

    A human curator makes the call from the evidence.

  4. 04

    Don’t look

    We source, inspect, pack, and keep the answer hidden.

  5. 05

    Open it

    One album. One curator card. A new place to start.

Choose your damage

The hunt has a budget.

Your record budget tells us what we can spend finding the right copy. The curation fee pays for the close listen. Shipping stays separate.

The standard

Worth owning. Not necessarily sealed.

We might send new sealed vinyl, mint or near-mint used copies, older pressings, smart reissues, indie-label editions, and overlooked albums. What we do not send: records with unacceptable playback problems.

You choose the condition. We keep the standard.

  • New only
  • Excellent-condition used is fine
  • Best record wins

Why human curation

You don't need more of what you know.

Algorithms are excellent at giving people more of what they already know. DONT LOOK exists to introduce them to what they are missing.

Real people.
Real taste.

Real records.
No noise.

No hype.
No skips.

Drop 001 / 25 spots

Customer cash funds customer records.

We close the drop, curate in one working session, purchase in consolidated batches, inspect, pack, and ship. That is the point: no warehouse, no pile of guesses, no traditional subscription box.

The first run is deliberately small.

  1. Monday / review profiles
  2. Tuesday / purchase in batches
  3. Wednesday–Thursday / inspect
  4. Friday–Saturday / pack and ship
