poweredbytrust Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I also still haven't got the point about the "regular cover" copies.. There has been no official retail release of this so far, right? (Yes, I did click on those rick-rolling links) So the only copies with the regular cover would be the initial bootleg copies. Or was the Black Friday release repressed with the regular cover for people who didn't get in on the black run? Tommy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poweredbytrust Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 thank you for pointing that out. I must have misunderstood the picture you posted, then. I thought you'd been getting two copies of the records in your shipment, one with the black cover and one with the regular white cover.

jaypeap Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 yeah i already had the original bootleg and just posted the new official black friday version with it. i came home super late yesterday and am going to ask my neighbors if they saw it at my doorstep (which is normally where they leave packages) i may contact fedex in case the driver knows something.

ryantark Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) Entire b-side was very rough on first listen. Loud pop in Solo and extreme noise on the next two tracks. Bootleg 4 life. (Yes, it's been cleaned) Edit: Needle picked up some nasty dust, I think it's better now. Fuck my sound reviews.

Bummed for those that got bunk copies. Mine came in the first batch and has very minimal noise. ryantark 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azvd Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 It took ages but I finally got my shipping confirmation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azvd Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 (edited) Just got it. Arrived in pristine conditon, well packaged by Sandbag. No complaints at all. The magazine must weight 02 tons and it's huge. It's been months since I don't buy (and obviously receive) new music so this one made it for the absence pretty well. PS.: No BF sticker before anyone asks. Edited March 7, 2017 by azvd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kid_k_1 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Wow. I am still in the proces of getting my records. I received two damaged copies. Sandbag was quick in sending a replacement but those had damaged covers aswell. Now they send me two replacement covers... empty jackets both with 4 cm seamsplits and bend up corners. this is hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
