NewOldStock Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 28 minutes ago, Colton said: I got my copy of Panic's AFYCSO today and each corner is considerably dinged up. One even has a bit of a crease. Has this happened to anyone else and how does Hot Topic usually handle it? I feel like if I try to send it back it'll be sold out before it even gets there for me to get a replacement. Also the last time I got a replacement from someone it came in even worse condition than the first. How does it sound? vinyl addict 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the last time I got a replacement from someone it came in even worse condition than the first. Mine had one crushed corner. Definitely not awesome. I was trying to upload a pic but couldnt figure it out. You can see it on my IG (same handle) if you want. It's very noticeable and considering I waited 6 months for this, very disappointing.

Hot Topic email support is pretty bad so I may just suck it up since I have an OG pressing anyways. jihadpizza 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Variant doesn't actually look terrible based on that photo above. Speaking from aesthetics, the black contrasts the red on the vinyl just like it does on the album art. Don't really care, myself, but still find it highly amusing that the one guy joined VC just to say it's the ugliest colorway he's ever seen, in the dedicated thread for this repress.

The Saint Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 The artwork is super pixelated, right? I'm not the only one seeing it? It looks like it's just blown up CD artwork or something except for the track list text on the back, which is surprisingly clear. Don't know why that is clear but the text on the front is not.

Iron it out? My last batch of records came badly damaged and there was a bit of classic "who's on first" going on. Calling them was great, though, and everything was taken care of. Also if they could throw in a sandwich with that corner ding fix I'd be one happy camper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
