Opra Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Mine wasn't shrink wrapped either, and much of the vinyl from overseas is never shrink wrapped. interesting not every new release comes in shrink wrap. Didn't know that. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erthan Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Mine wasn't shrink wrapped either, and much of the vinyl from overseas is never shrink wrapped. It should be the standard way to ship vinyl. No superfluous plastic going into the trash and no seam splits. natenomm, jaba1337, deletedunknown and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicondevil Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Many labels will ship the record outside of the jacket, which I appreciate to avoid seam splits. Why would it matter if it wasn't sealed up? Aren't you going to open it and listen to it anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

planetrakis Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 So tempted. Does it comes with a pair of pantyhose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicondevil Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Cool. Not laying down any judgment for wanting to have a sealed copy for collectability or resale. I just don't think a sealed bootleg will mean anything in the end. Glad I was able to score a blue one. With my luck they will release some superdeluxo 180 gm next month! natenomm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamalatapes Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Received my clear green one today but it came outside the jacket. Was hoping for a sealed copy with the original shrink. I understand some people ship vinyl outside the jacket but it was sold as new ;/ A little frustrating. Most Japanese packaging is this way. I buy from Big Love Records in Japan and have scored a Happy End record from Japan and this is how they are. They are still considered "new" if that helps your frustration. Besides it actually helps during the transport from not creating any seam splits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamalatapes Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Is anyone else's cover a little fuzzy or dark? Yeah, mine is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarzioo_ Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Got mine today and it's pretty warped. I think that might be because the package with squished on one side. Has anyone had much luck with using a heavy book to fix a warped record? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faceghost Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Mine is slightly warped as well but it's fine and it sounds great. And my jacket came in good condition and I didn't notice it being dark or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone had much luck with using a heavy book to fix a warped record? I've had some warped records that have sat on my shelf for years and flattened out a bit. They were never too warped to play initially though. I would imagine trying it with a book would work with enough time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I'll destroy it. Other than that it looks fine. It's not so bad that I'll try and get another or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarzioo_ Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 A few hours won't do anything. How long would you suggest? I've never tried this before. Would you say a few days? A week? From what I read online, it suggested putting it near outside but not directly in it? I really don't know. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people have luck with 2 sheets of glass and a warm oven/sunlight. It is very easy to ruin your record though. Also, looks like there are some black copies out there too? http://www.ebay.com/itm/V-A-Lost-In-Translation-Soundtrack-LP-NEW-VINYL-unofficial-OST-Kevin-Shields-My-/201103801728 Green and Blue are also up right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedannychang Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Just got my green copy today. I think it sounds pretty good. Anyone else spin theirs yet? Would love to hear what people think of the quality of this pressing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewNstuff Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I've got a clear one and it sounds great. I can't imagine an original copy sounding much better. Same got my clear over a week ago and gave it a few spins. Sounds great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarzioo_ Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Yes!! The heavy book trick worked! It's not perfect but it looks so much better than what it did! I'm gonna give it a spin and see how it sounds now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guyremix Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I got a green vinyl copy, sound quality is great but it does have a few clicks & pops on it, especially noticeable on track 2, side 1. Aside from this its good. Anyone else have this on theirs? As its only a bootleg i'm not gonna try & return/exchange it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faceghost Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Mine has those too. Also near the end of the b side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
