wuhanclan Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 (edited) today i picked up a copy of the olafur arnalds new album which i ordered online from my local store. as they do with online orders, they placed a large sticker with my name and email address and order # etc etc over the sleeve. while it’s normally not an issue with polysleeves which i almost never keep, this album comes with a printed pvc sleeve. and as i tried removing it, not only did the sticker not come off completely (admittedly i did a terrible job myself but it wasn’t easy), part of the artwork also got peeled off with the sticker. do i have a case to take it to the record store for an exchange or contact the label for a replacement? this is how it's supposed to look: Edited November 27, 2020 by wuhanclan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
