daegor Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Finding out it had Noots was enough to push me over the edge to order it, I had SRC add it to my Chevelle pre-order. BTW, feel free to make offers on my OG press that I'm selling now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc32137 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Ugh $26.50. samedwards 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest s0uthard Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Ugh $26.50. Yeah, the price is steep, but if you think about it, it is the same price as SRC with shipping. Assuming that you buy it in the physical store that is haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc32137 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 or get it shipped to store Close to $35 for that option for me after tax/gas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
himynameisShane Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Close to $35 for that option for me after tax/gas. True. SRC still has them available I believe. Its literally the same pressing except HT's is red. I hate that SRC's aren't in the jacket, they're separate and in a plastic sleeve. Annoys me a little.

dantheriver Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 would you rather have your jackets arrive with seam splits and ring wear?Yea, that was the dumbest complaint of all time. Once it gets to you then you are more than welcome to put it in the jacket... Princess Logan and daegor 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot Topics are packaged the exact same way. this is great actually, in the stroe you can inspect the vinyl before purchase. samedwards 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However when I ordered from SRC and the vinyl came out of the jacket I did get one with a chip in it, so I'm sorry that I like the vinyl to be in the jacket. I didn't say it was a big deal, more that I don't like it that way. samedwards 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't blame it on the record and sleeve being outside the jacket during shipping. You pretty much can always blame split seams on the record being shipped inside the jacket though. daegor, Princess Logan and samedwards 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a lot more go wrong with that order than a chip. They gladly replaced that record though. Good people. Just an awful experience. himynameisShane 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't blame it on the record and sleeve being outside the jacket during shipping. You pretty much can always blame split seams on the record being shipped inside the jacket though. This. Not that your (theshanextm's) opinion is invalid... but it kinda is, because of this. A properly packed record cannot get chipped while shipped, regardless of the LP being in/out of the sleeve. Except for catastrophic damage to the package as a whole, in which case it doesn't matter if it's in or out of the sleeve anyway. However, a properly packed record can get seem splits if the LP is in the sleeve. Logic therefore dictates that it's always better to ship the LP outside of the sleeve, hence why you'll find that nearly everyone here insists on this being done, and hence why a lot of labels (SRC included, it seems) makes this the de facto standard even if not requested. EDIT: That, and if you have the LP shipped outside of the jacket and the jacket arrives with seem splits then you (and more importantly, the label) know that the splits happened prior to shipping and you could ask for a replacement (if you're that type of person). dantheriver and himynameisShane 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you're saying. "Hate" was probably a strong word in my initial post. This may be more of a Hot Topic display thing, but the jackets of the Sum 41 and Finch records they had weren't in that great of condition compared to the fully wrapped ones. They just came off as used instead of new. contiinstereo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just came off as used instead of new. Hot topic doesn't have a standard vinyl display method (that I've noticed). They shift things around as needed when stock levels rise/fall. And the clientele being mostly teenage kids doesn't help their records stay in great condition. I've seen plenty of sealed and non sealed records in rough shape at my local store. funtitled 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskimoswim Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 lol why did my comment get -2 votes for being right? i'd also like to know how a record could get "chipped" inside of an LP mailer. even if a record were packaged poorly, how could it be chipped by sliding around inside of cardboard? daegor and dantheriver 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
