Thanks for reading!

Its not incomprehensible that you may have had a bad experience ordering and returning it, its incomprehensible that you'd come in here and shit on the pressing based on things you read, which go against numerous people who are stating the exact opposite. That it is a great pressing. You could have taken these peoples word for it, but it seems like your mind was already made up on this going into it.
If sound quality is all that matters to you, why wouldnt you just get the regular black pressing which used the original plates? Why would you take a "23 dollar gamble" at all? Are you really expecting Hot Topic to indicate ninute details like which plates were used on every single release they make? They aren't MoFi, so I think you're being a bit unrealistic. All that should matter to you when buying a record is how it sounds, and possibly also how it looks, if aesthetics matter to you. You're making trivial issues seem like problems, and that's what doesn't make sense.

So they prefer listening to people complain about reasons why a record could be bad, instead of the music on the record that turned out not to be. Makes sense.

I would not collect variants if it were just the colour of the album that differs, however I do have some of my favorite albums twice, provided they have alternate artwork. I think the ability to say you have the "Complete collection" of something is what some people strive for. They are simply completionists, which is something you'll find in all kinds of collecting, not just records.
 
I also doubt people do this for every single band they enjoy listening to either. Its usually one or two that hold a special place in their heart. (aww...)

I got the phone call from Hot Topic. I can't pick it up until Mondayish but the real reason for this post is that they left a voicemail and called me Mr.
