mss614 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Well then, this is gonna be a huge package... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spoonbill Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Yea I think the large build up at the end was due to the pressing plant backups that it seemed every label was experiencing. One thing I noticed about the 2013 sub is that they didnt specify how frequent shipments would be like they did in 2012. is this really true? haven't a lot of the records in this package been available for quite a while?

Juturna90 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Not really a big deal but I got my 7" package in the mail the other day, and realized that the touche amore split doesn't have the subscriber b side label. anyone else see this?

brandon260 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Got my 12" pack today. Corners bent up on most of the records, with a lot of gaps in the shipping box itself. I don't know why the same boxes from the IIOI 52 Weeks LP weren't used for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejesseb Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Got my 12" box today and everything looks great. Now just waiting on the 7" box to arrive. Also my slipmat isn't actually a circle and is more of an oval. So much so that it doesn't fit correctly or entirely cover the platter. Kinda bummed.

Kjm23 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 If anyone get's the 2013 Sub and wants to trade for some of the 2012 stuff I will have some of it available for trade. Or if you bought the 2013 Sub and plan on selling some of it let me know. Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still trying to sell my 2012 sub as a whole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeeMoreGlass Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 just got done sampling all the 12" records and I have to say I am really really impressed! Casket Lottery, Departures and Mountain Man are fantastic albums Major League and Lowtalker are decent pop/punk records which is what I expected Early Graves feels a little strange but I think it is going to be fun when I'm in the mood for something different... All in All this was a good purchase....glad I bought the 2013 sub!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandon260 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Aside from my package coming in poor shape, I have a few other comments about the entire thing. - Three (The Casket Lottery, Major League, Departures) of the six LPs in this package are without the proper b-side label, making only one have the proper label, since two also have etchings. - There was really no reason for there not have been a package sent out in September, six of these releases have been out since before October. - Some communication would have been appreciated, whether it was an update as to why stuff was being held so long, shipping notice on the final packages, a heads up that the 7" and LPs were coming separately, something. All of this stuff is keeping me away from next year's subscription, along with heavy consideration before I decide to order from No Sleep again.

serum7 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 This sub was a bigger bust than Tim Tebow. Has anyone brought up that it doesn't take $30 to ship 4 packages? Definitely not buying another one from them even though 2013 is already looking better. I'll stick to individual purchases from now on. I'll sell my LPs from this sub (minus Mixtapes & Casket Lottery) for $10+shipping and 7"s for $5+shipping (minus Mixtapes, B&C, Casket Lottery) if anyone is interested.

pushbacktosquare Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Also, I slowly began to realize that on top of the records that I would have never purchased to begin with, I could have hot cashed the records I did want to buy, since pretty much all of them were up at ht.com. .... And still no print for 2011 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrangerwithcandy Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 My package came with everything in perfect condition. Surprised to see both my casket lottery albums had a little bit of blue mixed in the white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robobob Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Got my packages in the mail yesterday. Its odd I never got a shipping notice but I guess it was a pleasant surprise. My biggest complaint about this sub is that none of the LPs came with a poly sleeve. One or two of my LP's special band things have ripped just pulling them out of the shelf. Just ordered some extra 4 mil sleeves to hopefully prevent this problem. But the paper is so thin that even taking them off the albums to listen runs the risk of them tearing. Ok sub I guess. A little expensive, but I was generally happy with the releases. Probably won't do another no sleep sub though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
