hallowken78 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Grabbed a red/white split from the DW webstore. Saw it was back in stock and couldn't help myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammertime Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Newbury variant is back in stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrimsonLies Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 So I got the Newbury variant but there's a huge seam split on the triple gatefold. It's more like a gaping hole where the record is actually sticking out quite a bit. I don't normally complain but it's pretty bad. Is there anything I can do about it?

hammertime Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Did you get it from them? Email them and they will send you a replacement ASAP. I've noticed if I make a large order from them and it comes UPS it's usually packed well, but if I get one LP they throw it in one of those small mailers and it usually arrives with seam splits.

CrimsonLies Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Yeah I received it from them and I only ordered one LP. Thanks for your help, I contacted them and should get a response on Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying youre wrong but is that their official policy? I assume seem splits are a risk when ordering online. If every distro replaced LPs for seem splits, well... theyd be replacing a whole bunch of records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually suck it up when I get seam splits from them (or anywhere else), but I've had a couple instances where it's really bad, like it was bad before they packed it, and they've always been cool about sending me a replacement (and paying me to ship the shitty one back to them).

jhulud Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I could be wrong...but as far as I recall, the first F&F pressing that DW did was the 'Shards' for Axe To Fall. Others since include: the red/gold swirl of Jane Doe repress AWLWLB on clear Blacklisted No One Deserves... on black (although this may have been an error pressing?) Converge Live at BBC on clear Touche Amore Parting the Sea... on clear Touche Amore Is Survived By on clear There may be others perhaps?

If you're going to start playing the "defective item" card on the happenstance of seems splitting during transit you're going to be a very miserable person if you continue purchasing records through mail order. The product inside that packaging is a record. Its meant to be spun on a turntable and have a phonographic needle dragged through it. If that record doesn't work properly then that's a defective item. If you've got a little seem splitting on a sealed record that traveled across state lines, that's collateral damage and is in keeping with likelihood of the laws of physics coming into play when a plastic disc (sharp or blunt) is jostled about inside of a square paper and card stock packaging. cemeterytapes, vinyl21 and Eliminator Jr. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throughbeingcruel Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I've had a couple seam splits where I could see the LP through the split, so I bitched about those ones. No need to freak out though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScaleTheInferno Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Sorry to derail this thread but it made me think of my 2010 copy of Jane Doe 2x12". There is a terrible skip during "Hell To Pay" and just wondered if anyone else experienced that or could recommend alternate pressings without skipping issues. I don't care about ltd editions and colours, just the best sound. Makes it bloody hard to sell second hand because you know it's defective. Nearly pulled my hair out trying different VTF & bias settings etc before concluding it definitely wasn't set up related, as well as the fact no other record in my collection of over 300 LPs skips. My system is not entry level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
