vialister Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Just got my last shipment, which was broke up into two packages. Got stung with £30 worth of custom charges though from the Royal Mail (£15 each parcel) because the postage stamps were marked incorrectly from no sleeps side. This sub keeps costing in 2013! Might have to write and email to no sleep about this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickmitch Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 My 12" pack arrived today. Bit disappointed with the slipmat (the fact that it's not a sub exclusive, is an oval shape, and has roman numerals for 2011 rather than 2012). Also, as someone said already, only special b-side labels on Lowtalker and Major League. I don't know why, but it could be because the others had the tracklist for each side on the labels? Possibly? Who knows. Keen to get the 7" pack but overall I'd say it was a pretty good investment since most records cost a shitload in shipping costs.

chamb117 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 except the packages they sent for the sub only cost probably $15 for all shipments, and while i realize that's a lot less than ordering every record individually, that's still a far cry from what we actually paid for shipping.

astrangerwithcandy Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I don't know why I slept on Real Fear for so long. This albun kicks all kinds of ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dethrock Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Has anyone emailed No Sleep about why so many releases don't have the b-side labels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejesseb Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Has anyone emailed No Sleep about why so many releases don't have the b-side labels? Yea, I don't want to make a huge deal but at the same time it's kinda disappointing. Also I want my sticker pack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickmitch Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Still no 7" pack after getting the 12" pack on Tuesday. Weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffbloom Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 I just bought two of the 2012 records from someone on Discogs and I couldn't believe how thin the paper band was. I took a picture of it up against the window. Keep in mind that it's a cloudy wintery day here in NY... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coryemis Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 I agree Buffbloom. As a subscriber I was a little let down as well. Feels like surgery everytime I take one off nickmitch, I got my 12" package first, then it took me 2 weeks to get my 7" pack. I am not sure why. I am just trying to help ease to worry you might have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chamb117 Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 i'm considering just taking off the paper bands and sticking them inside the sleeve or something. they're such low quality, at this point i don't really care what happens to them.

astrangerwithcandy Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 They're thin but so far through everyday use they've held up for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffbloom Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Mine came in the mail with several small dings and cuts. Also, the b side label is just a sticker over the normal label. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jvphotoandvideo Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I'll buy pieces of your sub. If it amounts to at least $150, then I have no problem with this. As much as I like a lot of these records, the sub took the fun out of it for me and I need the cash to pay for the big ass order of records I got as a result of this.

dethrock Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I just listened to my Broadway Calls/Mixtapes Split. The A-side has the Broadway Calls label but is actually Mixtapes. The funny thing is the Mixtapes side (which is side B on the other copies) has an etiching that says "We don't even get side A? This labels a joke." Is anyone else's like this?

astrangerwithcandy Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I received everything listed below Drug Church as well as a slipmat in one shipment about two months ago. I actually enjoyed the 2012 sub. It got me to listen to a lot of stuff I really enjoy that I might have otherwise looked over. dethrock 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whoatherechunk Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 My package got stuck in the wrong city 2 months ago. No Sleep said there was nothing to do and I asked for a refund. They said they couldn't do anything until they find out what happened via USPS. I demanded my money or the records and they said they would finally ship out my stuff.....hopefully I get something out of a crappy sub package. Worst $200+ spent.

Kind of a dick move, should have waited for them to contact USPS. Its certainly not their fault that the item is in another city. thejesseb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
