graveface Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 oh man if you do I know what I'm getting everyone for birthdays/christmas/halloween/columbus day this year! Cool! I didn't know anyone would actually buy that sort of thing. I always have a fair amount of damaged packaging with fine records. Perhaps I'll make a cheapie section for them.

vietmam Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I got mine today, all the little bonus stuff was cool haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidamnesiac Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Got mine today! 131/500. Mine also has a split seam on the top just like the photo and the record was packed in the sleeve. Other than that, though, I'm loving it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniel Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Yeah same! Also, this record sounds amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblahmaster Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Ah, seems i should be be getting mine tomorrow then. STOKED!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidamnesiac Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Pics: Sorry for the fuzzy phone photos. You can kind of see the split at the top of the sleeve. The color is more of a haze like I originally suspected. Still looks rad, though. And it sounds incredible. More artists should put out concise EPs at 45rpm like this.

jblahmaster Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Awesome! didn't think it would have been have 45 rpm. Also i agree, more ep's should be done on 45 rpm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graveface Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I have some bad news. Well, not really, just a horrifying observation. I got a box of the new Hospital Ships LPs in this afternoon and as I was packing them up for retail, I noticed that almost every single copy had a very slight seam split at the same spot as that photo I showed you earlier. Some worse than others. Has anyone else had this issue with the new Pirates Press jackets? They changed them recently. The appear to be thicker and almost like they have 3 spines (thickness wise). I've never gotten so many seam splits from a manufacturer directly and this is the same jacket I used for Middle States (as well as 3 other new releases!). I'm freaking out.

sharkticon Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Did you specify a paper thickness when you ordered? Is there a standard for sleeves/gatefolds? You should let them know that your order is messing up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidamnesiac Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Yeah everything I have from Pirate's Press is top notch. I'm real surprised! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should let them know that your order is messing up. Yeah, I go for the "thick as shit" I believe. I sent him some photos. Problem is, it's multiple orders from multiple shipments. Yikes!

sharkticon Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I hope "thick as shit" is an actual option you can choose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkticon Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Holy balls this record sounds SO good. It also took me a minute to realize it's at 45. But even then it sounded pretty sweet. #130/500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 All these pictures are making me impatient to getting shipping confirmation, and the record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dustin415 Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Still patiently awaiting mine. Loving the look of it. I'm guessing the time of ordering doesn't have much bearing on number/ship date, cause I ordered mine seconds after they went on sale.

somethingvinyl Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 I can't complain. I got a #'d copy, no seam splits, everything perfect. But if I had to complain...I really dig the posters, but I hate how they were folded. Wish they could have been smaller to fit in a mailer without being folded. Overall, though, thoroughly satisfied. Will always buy from Ryan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually tried to not fold them but instead loosely tuck them around the vinyl. Guess that trick doesn't result in an unscathed poster? Sorry mate. Thanks for your support though!
