100% agree and plan on implementing some kind of "PO1 + PO2" structure in the thread title. I'm on mobile until the evening so it's all a pain to adjust on the fly until I'm at my desk, but I fully intend to make some headway on the thread, finally, tonight.
Also that KWIATY variant turned out gorgeously. Love how the colors play off the sleeve.

I was thinking something along the lines of "The Official Ghostly Thread: POs, News, Restocks, etc."
Feel free to play around with that but I think it's the most straightforward. Thoughts? Too verbose?

Was very happy to find Glimmer and an orange copy of Galactic Melt in the international store the other week.
The Galactic Melt was listed as the Orange cover version but I figured that'd be way too good to be true.
Just preordered the new Jacaszek and Geotic LPs. Excited!

I picked up the red vinyl of this on the weekend and my copy actually sounded great. Pretty solid album

It's my pleasure. Genuinely enjoy dabbling in design and format – just wish VC gave us a little more flexibility. If anything, though, thank you for giving us all new music to explore and update the thread with.

Sounds interesting!
I could use more "passive listening" material on wax.
I might jump on this but want to hear more samples in the future.

TGSNick reacted to blackhouse records in Best/Worst Customer Service from a Distro/Label?
As a guy running a small label, it sucks when the shipping process goes so terrible. I am very hands on with everything I do, and it's literally just my wife and I. We do everything from social media posts, project management, distribution, marketing and (some) PR, website, design, mailorder, ISRC coding, literally everything. It always bums me out to hear when someone gets a record from us that is damaged when we take great care in the packing process, yet somehow the USPS (or other carrier) absolutely trashes the package. Mind you, this doesn't happen often, but it's worse when the person on the receiving end assumes that we as a label would pack it up already damaged or as if we intentionally made it so the customer would receive a damaged item. I have literally all label lines of communication linked to my phone specifically to ensure that I can get back to people almost immediately, and trying to keep people in the loop as quickly as possible is usually the best step we've been able to take in trying to keep the damage minimal. Vinyl is expensive as hell, so it should be treated as a big deal for both the label and the customer when things go wrong, rightfully so.
I'd like to think we are pretty good with working with people on the rare occasion when this does happen, and although it costs us in the end, it's the right thing to do. Hell, in one case, a guy in Ireland got a record that was literally FOLDED IN HALF. He sent pics, and although it cost us about $50 to resend it, hoping that it would not show up the way it did the first time, we did it anyway. It's a bitch, but again, it's the right thing to do. Only part that sucks is the money lost, especially when a pressing plant sends over defective product to the label (trust me, this can happen even after you've approved test pressings....it's not a fail safe). So it goes, I guess. In the end, it's worth it to see the customer happy, or if that's not possible, try to compromise and make it work to get there.
Long winded post, sorry. I guess it's just that as a label manager and a guy who orders a ton of vinyl over mailorder for myself, I can see both sides of the coin.
