faaip de oiad Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Funny thing is that when I initially placed the order for the Singles, I saw the PayPal link briefly and then instantly disappeared when I placed this order leaving only the credit card option.

hammertime Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Got my Interpol LP today...with a spine split...because those mailers they use are garbage...I think this is the 3rd shipment in a row from them that's shown up damaged. How can a company that does that much mailorder business be that bad about packing records? I think I'm done with them, for reals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I preordered from them once and it was a 200 gram Hendrix record. You can imagine what that spine looked like. Then, they wouldn't let me exchange it at the store. Now I just wait for it to release and go pick it up in store. Regardless of how limited it is, there's always plenty available in store the week of release.

s_alvanip Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Eeeek, I just pre-ordered the two Newbury exclusives of Com Truise. May have to cancel and go direct to Ghostly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slipcraig Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 My Interpol LP arrived today. So disappointing. It was like this out of the sleeve, and the shipping box wasn't damaged in any way. Yes, it affects the sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rag on their pricing and the way they stash away variants, but I've always had really good experiences with their customer service. One time I missed an exclusive of theirs before by a couple of minutes, and when I messaged them on Twitter asking if it'd become available again they sent me a free copy - probably because they saw I've ordered quite a bit from them, but still a really cool gesture. I've never had problems with their packaging, either. slipcraig 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People eat these up like expensive ass candy so I can hardly blame them for doing so. If i could sell several hundred of something in a few hours just because its colored and regardless of price then I totally would do the same. hammertime and tape 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dojo Daniel Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 (edited) Just me being paranoid, but did anyone have issues with the quality of the Roman Candles and self-titled pressings by Elliot Smith?

trickster Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 UGH! My Interpol arrived in Greece with no outer damage and decided to keep it sealed for a while since it must be forever since I received a perfect looking copy of anything. But I will definitely open it today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
