I’m surprised USPS took this.  I once saw a guy trying to mail a stack of dinner plates that were wrapped in butcher paper

I feel like if it wasn't broken already you'd see the piece in the cellophane. This honestly makes me think less of RFC, they really didn't have to return that and are now broadcasting their shittiness.

This is my theory. Either it was broken already and they were asked to return it or the customer was just upset that they didn’t get a no questions asked Amazon style replacement on a warp or ding and this was their act of protest.

I really want a MFATGGs boxset.

100 bonus points for putting these on sale AFTER you receive them and not doing a 6 month long preorder while they're on a boat from Europe. Also great job with Cartel release. My only negative comment about it would be the picture sleeve. These seem to always get torn from records bouncing around and I much prefer a plain white sleeve and a printed insert.

Weird. My experience is the opposite. I can count the number of times I've received a record in a poly sleeve inside the jacket from a label on one hand.
You should ask them to draw a picasso on the mailer too.

This is an excellent, articulate response. Well done. The only words I could come up with were “fuck off.”

Tbh, your entitlement is kinda bogus. These things take time and effort, and you’re just assuming that they can handle requests of that magnitude even during a pandemic when most businesses are functioning at lower capacity. If this company were to take specific requests from every individual that orders from them, the amount of problems that could arise are astronomical. Try to consider things like this when kicking and screaming certain services be rendered in order to prevent something that MIGHT happen.

@IndigoHollowunfortunately the Yellowcard official IG says this will be the first in a series of "reimagined" Yellowcard albums done solo by William Ryan Key.
 
Big old bummer. 

haha. Sorry buddy. She's a keeper.

this is again pretty standard for Pure Noise. Sell an expensive bundle to those who want it and then the leftovers go up in smaller bundles. The variant was later sold with a screened slipmat for $40.
 
Pretty sure Merch Limited is a screen printing company...

If they already know that they should send out an email. Communication is key.

If you didn't listen to their first record a couple years ago you're missing out. It's great. Buy it from AF with this 7" so you can save on shipping.

You are correct, we do them for almost every album we release on vinyl.

To be fair, this is the same band that has 30+ different versions of a split 7" with a Japanese band.  So complaining that a band that has always put out different variants of releases, and are collectors themselves, is putting out too many variants is odd. If people are willing to buy them, cool, have at it. It's not like this was unexpected. The alt cover variants is something PN has done with I believe every release they've been involved with. Sound the Alarm was no different.

lol. You're angry at people when you don't even know they were involved. They were not. Pure Noise is doing their new album, and honestly did a job getting it in on time, etc.

Anthem and B-Sides was through Smartpunk Records and likely some help from the band.

We repressed this album because the 1st pressing mostly sold out.. not supporting a band because their album is readily available and trying to make money when they can't tour is a very strange concept to me.

The buyer in my case wasn't expecting to get the record before Christmas, he was upset I didn't SHIP IT before Christmas and waited until the following Monday to do so (he didn't ask me to but messaged me Sunday night asking why his record hadn't been shipped yet with a bunch of exclamation points). I've also been shipping records for over 10 years and judging by my 100% feedback on both Discogs and eBay, I'd say I'm doing just fine on the customer service front. My main issue with some buyers is the exceedingly high expectations thinking every order should be shipped within 1-2 days and arrive within a week even with media mail. I have a day job and a family and life sometimes gets in the way of me shipping your record out in Amazon like speed. I appreciate all the business I've received during the pandemic but sometimes you just gotta shake your head at some people, nothing wrong with that. You also have to realize that communication is a two way street, if someone is that eager for a record they need to tell me and I'll gladly offer Priority Mail for an extra fee.

Please don't regularly give in to scammers because it's easier to deal with guys.
 
Despite popular belief they don't just give buyers their money back automatically and there are no terms that say the speed of a government run business is the sellers fault as long as they don't actually lose the item.
A simple "Your tracking has been provided, I apologize for the delay but it's out of my hands. If there are any issues after receiving your record I will gladly accept the returned item for a full refund." Solves the issue most of the time. If the buyer is unreasonable and wants to keep the item and get a refund despite your offer I promise paypal will deny their claim. Only the most stubborn of stubborn will ship something back for taking too long.

They're really active on IG if you want to try them there. Any time someone has left negative feedback in a comment on a post I've seen them reply.

Is anyone else bothered by the giant fucking parental advisory logo on Bsides?! Like where did they take this image from? I literally have 12x12 flats from when this album came out with no parental advisory logo on it that they could have scanned.

As far as I know, the gatefold versions have matches, the non-gatefold versions (the orange anthem, and the half and half color anthem) do not have matches. Though I wouldn't be too surprised if there are gatefolds missing matches.
