blugel Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 same again.... good thing they 'alerted' us about this on twitter, prompting me to order a copy from norman records, which has already been dispatched! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmoney Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Got mine from Banquet - looks like it was dropped from a tall building. Oh well - still plays fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtfomfg666 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Got mine from Banquet - looks like it was dropped from a tall building. Oh well - still plays fine. Both of my inner and outer sleeves are totally fucked, split all the way through. It's a bummer but considering how cheap the shipping was and the handwritten note from banquet that came with the package, i'll live with it.

knowyourborders Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 That's disappointing about the banquet orders...hopefully I'll get mine tomorrow or something. Still really looking forward to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morfiend Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I tried to order this from 3 different sites but each one canceled my order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nothingnatural Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 First off, sorry if the bump got any ones hopes up about this being for sale somewhere. I was unable to get it unfortunately but I wanted to note that there's pretty much no way these are limited to 300. The amount that's on ebay and already completed plus how many places this was for sale at shows this. I bet it was a pressing of 1000 or maybe more.

reptilianoverlord Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Got mine from Banquet - looks like it was dropped from a tall building. Oh well - still plays fine. Anything bigger than a 7" from Banquet and you're asking for trouble - those fuckers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmwier Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Got mine from Banquet - looks like it was dropped from a tall building. Oh well - still plays fine. Both of my inner and outer sleeves are totally fucked, split all the way through. It's a bummer but considering how cheap the shipping was and the handwritten note from banquet that came with the package, i'll live with it. I got mine from Jumbo Records today. It isn't in very good shape. One of the corners is smashed in, and the inner and outer sleeve on one side is torn the whole way through. All in all, I am not very impressed with the packaging, as a whole. I guess the intent was to make it nondescript and plain. All black, no writing. But the outer sleeve is not made of the nicest cardboard that I have come across. I didn't really know what to expect with it, but I would be lying to say that I am not a little disappointed. At least I got one, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nothingnatural Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 It's easy enough to just buy a replacement cover and sleeve if they are completely generic. Most record stores carry the 12" black covers. Do these have an info sticker or anything like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do these have an info sticker or anything like that? Yeah, I imagine it would be easy to replace. There are no stickers or anything of the sort on either of the sleeves.

fish Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 i assume a lot of these will have damaged covers, but thankfully they are plain. the generic black cover is a good bit larger than the inner sleeve and that left a lot of room for the record to move around. Also Four Tet posted this to their twitter a few days ago so don't pay the extra for it now if you can wait a week or two: "More ego/mirror getting pressed at the moment... hope to have it in the shops soon."

knowyourborders Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Just got mine today! Looks pretty perfect, no bent corners or splits. I guess I got lucky there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retrospectacle Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Mine arrived today also. Ordered mine from Bleep. Looks like it's been bent eighteen different ways then bent again for good measure. Flimsy cardboard wrap did nothing to spare this 12" from the havoc of international shipping. Two sides split, one pretty bad. I'm sure when I get this thing on a turntable it will be warped. We'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cesar11 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 got mine today from Juno Records. Perfect condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retrospectacle Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Did a vinyl rip last night... the LP wasn't as warped as I thought it was going to be considering it was practically bent in half during shipping. So, I'm pleased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nothingnatural Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Damnit! Missed it again, thanks though bobboxx. I guess more are being made so shouldn't be too much longer of a wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidamnesiac Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Finally got mine today from Insularis. Missed the postman on Saturday and it was delivery confirmation with signature so I had to go pick it up. The spine and inner sleeve are split wide enough for the vinyl to peek out. Importing sucks sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
