instant buy, once a year I tweet at the band asking if they're ever going to put this on vinyl and never get a reply.

This is the reply.

band box exclusive

I ordered this one, had never heard of bandbox... But am a sucker for worthless zines. Hope I didn't waste my cash. Time to google bandbox. 

Both of these albums from this seller have been listed on and off for at least three years. Weird that they're getting so much traction right now... probably why they went from $29.99 to $49.99. At one point they were $23.99, but shipping to Canada still killed it for me so I didn't bother. 

Update: still have an old listing saved in my "saved for later" cart, Kerplunk used to be listed for $18.74.

DECEMBER 31ST?

Is this the first album with the spine like this that you own?  It’s not as uncommon as you think.  But if you consider something as trivial as lettering on a spine printed “backwards” as low standards then oof.  
 

I imagine you also send back your burger at a restaurant because the tomato on it is too thick.

1. No, I have a few other abhorrent pieces on the shelves. They don't keep me up at night, but a certainly notice. Caring about and noticing details isn't trivial, at least not in a well functioning society. 

2. I'm a no-tomato kind of guy, I just give the tomatoes to my partner, she loves tomatoes.

Honestly with how pretentious these posts are, being liked seems really important to you.

 

I don’t agree with you at all, but I want you to know - I like you.

1. My horse is too high to worry about others liking me. 

2. That's not necessary, but thank you... that is kind of you. 

Now, back on topic - anyone else jazzed about how their splatter came out? Also, I really forgot how much I enjoyed the riffs and licks on this album.

Yes if you maybe have 5-10 records in your collection and this is among them, then I could see it maybe bothering you.  But when you have upwards of 1000, you literally have to be looking for it specifically to even notice it.  Plus the font is ridiculously small so it makes it even easier to not notice.  Never ceases to amaze me the things people find to be bothered about or complain about.

I can't speak for others, but for me it comes from a place of caring about the quality and details of a finished product. Like, I would be so disappointed if this sleeve was my project and I sent it out into the world like that. Honestly, it's humiliating for whoever did the layout.

As you've acknowledged, spine printing in the other direction (and in a reasonable font size) is the common (and only acceptable) practice; so it's always notable when someone gets it so wrong. 

But I get it, I'm surrounded by folks like you who aren't so fussed about the details and who embrace (maybe even aspire to) having low standards. If I were more like you I bet people would like me a lot more.

Mine arrived today and based on how loosey goosey the LP was in the mailer, I predicted crushed corners and corner to corner seam splits. Alas, all is fine. Shocked.

I spoke too soon... once I opened it to frame the discs last night, I notice some slight splits on the inner sleeves. Oh dear, I am ever disappointed. From what I;ve learned from here over the past six years, I should request replacements, demand a refund, AND issue a chargeback through my amex, right?

On a less serious note; damn this album brings me right back to the summer of 2005 and the easy life I was cruising through. What a trip. But what's up with that spine? always a head shake when that shit is printed wrong.

So when is MYS being repressed?

Still never got an email confirmation, but my account was charged. Fingers crossed it went through. Got the /300

In case you missed the note from the seller, check your spamies it might be in there.

Based on an post on rantrecords feed it looks like he may have been trying to check out without selecting a shipping option... Good grief. 

Ding dong also owns an OG already. Boi needs to chill.

Based on the pictures, I'm wondering if there will be a bundle option. 

This is what I thought first, but the "limit one variant per cart" seems to rule that out. Don't need all three, but considered buying them if bundled.

A Slow Fade pressing would be awesome.

Slow Fade is one of the 6 discs in my car's CD player (yes, a CD PLAYER) - it is such a wonderful listen from front to back.

Despite my avatar, that's not my style.

Yeah of course 

I agree.

If I have two 1st presses is it responsible to go in on this too? 

Info is up, ordering to open tomorrow at 11am EST I think.

SORRY, BUT $37USD IS UNREASONABLE. 

WOW.

I haven’t had the time to listen yet to be honest. Just noticed when sleeving the records how dramatic the warps are. But to hear that your playback is fine gives me hope though

Yeah, if they're anything like mine you'll be ok. BUT, I don't recall noticing the bowling until I pulled them out... Maybe yours are more severe. Either way, please let us know!

if this is a super common problem, i'd hate to go through the exchange process with mondo, plus i'm already in the process of one right now. a lot of sending back and waiting, seeing if your replacement is affected or not, repeat until the problem is solved. i wonder if the solid color pressings suffer from the same issue.

My two are bowl-y and play absolutely fine. Never even thought about exchanging or complaining for a moment. Are yours unplayable?

If you sell it to someone else, than you are profiting off his evil. You just burn it all. 

I concur.
