Doubt they have any replacement jackets but I’ll reach out. Still don’t understand how labels struggle to mail out records these days?

Good luck, didn’t have any when I checked (also seam split). The whiplash mailers are far better than what PGR used for Rufio, but it does seem to be a learning curve.

. If your order is DAMAGED, LOST, or THE WRONG VARIANT COLOR, you may reach out to us for further assistance, but we will likely not be able to replace the order.

Emailed them a few weeks ago to ask whether they could “upgrade” the mailer. Their reply was “We’ve notified our warehouse but can’t make any guarantees.”

On the site note, I don't want to sound ungrateful but after trainwreck selling out this fast really the logical next steps are releasing the old eps with different cover and now tapes?? I mean it's cool but there are mys and the Self-titled records which both scream for a vinyl pressing... 

If I had to guess, the amount of money it costs to get the license for either requires heaps of funding. Maybe the tapes will help?

anybody get anything from revolver yet? I ordered mine with the poster for $100 and have not heard shit. 

Nothing yet. Someone left a comment in the reviews on Discogs: “Apparently there is a delay in shipping as stated by Revolver.” Couldn’t track that down myself.

Anybody seen word from Revolver confirming the delay/expected ship? Is that the actual “new” product we’ll see in 2 years?

If you want a new jacket/sleeve, you gotta talk to Matty 

I didn’t talk to Matty, but this is basically the reply I got from the MerchDirect support portal: https://help.merchdirect.com/contact-us.html

I battled MD trying to get a refund on a Deftones shirt I ordered.  I emailed, tweeted, and DM'd a bunch of times and got zero response.  The only thing that got my fucking refund was tracking down their phone number and actually calling them.

Edit: Fairly easy to find (631) 891-0134

Maybe try the chargeback route and see if you get better results? You ordered a new record, not a hot steaming pile of shit that is entirely damaged and skips when you play it. I'd say you didn't get what you ordered....

That’s next for sure. If we’re going the “terms & agreements” route, this isn’t what I agreed to in the sales contract.

After going on a bit of a tirade about how insane this was packaged and shipped, that’s all I essentially asked for. Seeing as this the only black copy I picked up, I’d still love a replacement jacket, but I don’t see that happening. Lemme know how it turns out for you, I think I’m done trying to run a dry well and just gonna hit up my card peeps.

Will do. Also trying to tweet MerchDirect and GJ in case their social support teams are better equipped. This is assuming a lot 😕

Did you get the same infuriating, bullshit cut and paste response as I did? Classic/classy.

Sure did. “All sales are final.” Going to keep trying for a replacement cover.

Not trying to take away from the frustration of receiving damaged records, but the only way I see to prevent damage on these would be to ship the record(s) itself outside of the cover, each with their own little sealed poly sleeve secured in place with some kind of adhesive, whether tape or otherwise.

Agreed, full prevention just isn't really feasible for a record designed like this. I do see enough folks getting theirs in decent condition, so with any luck I'm one of the outliers.

That looks like most mailers out there, not flimsy at all... sucks it came damaged, but it isn't the fault of the mailer.

True it’s not just the fault of the mailer. This may be a base-level mailer, but a lot of what I’m getting these days comes in something much sturdier (i.e. Deathwish, MerchNow or TTL).  In the end - a better mailer could have kept the gatefold from getting torn and creased.

Considering these contain 3 loose records, is it unreasonable to expect a better mailer than this?

My inner 7” wasn’t properly set and came loose. Pretty scuffed and scratched. Not too hopeful of a replacement from

merchdirect so hopefully my Revolver copy doesn’t come as fucked up.

Just got my copy in CA, couldn't be more disappointed. Flimsy mailer with no reinforcement ended up getting crushed; cover has a 1" gash and creases all over; inner rings ripped through their slots so the gatefold is torn up. And of course each disc is scratched to hell - I can't even put it away without the 7" sliding all the way out. For anyone who wants to see the carnage. At least the CD was wrapped in bubble wrap 🙄

Emailing MerchDirect about my options. Maybe I'll get a replacement cover?

Got a shipping notification for The Patient variant!

Where is MD based out of? Informed Delivery just shot me a label created text from LA.

Pretty sure they ship out of Bay Shore, NY. That’s where Material Control shipped from anyhow.

Funny enough, the order I placed last from Merch direct, shipped first. Granted, it doesn’t have the print, but still. 

Anybody who ordered the print/serigraph bundle see a shipping notification yet?

Anybody with a notification from Glassjaw’s site comfortable sharing the subject line of their email? Paranoid I’m missing it.

I too got a DHL ECOMMERCE / API / DHL GLOBAL MAIL thing from Houston in my informed delivery this morning. 

Edit: There was a lie here before. Turns out Mondo stuff can also come  from Houston via DHL Global ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Second press info:

red translucent /500

Went up early, managed to grab the Blood And Water variant this time around (sold out now). EDIT: Tail Lights (red translucent) not sold out. Refresh again in about 20min (2PM CDT)!

Second press incoming today (April 2nd) at 2PM CDT:

Quote

Oh boy, that went quickly. We sold out of all Boys Night Out variants before 11:30 CST. The good (for you) news is that we had a couple of people order multiples of the variants, so we will have a few copies available for sale once we refund those (if you ordered more than one, you'll still get one!). The bad (for us) news is that we need a little bit of time to sort all that out. The OTHER good news is that we want everybody to be able to have a copy of this record, so we're going to do a second press that will likely ship around the same time as the first press (oh the beauty of pre-orders)! We'll get all of that up at 2 PM CST TODAY.

All sold out!

Edit: Keep refreshing! Lake Ontario variant keeps going in and out.

Somehow bought the shirt instead of Blood on the Water, swore I clicked Buy Record 😕
