scormier2 Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 I got this record for Christmas today expecting it to be on white vinyl. That was the only color that I had ever heard of for it. When I opened it though, I discovered it was on black. Does anyone have any pressing info for this? I can't find anything besides "The first pressing will be white/500."

shamrocks Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 i feel like if this is on sale at bestbuy.com 2 years after street date then there may be more than 500 copies floating around, although i cant find any mention of a repress it does appear as though they released an acoustic version of this on Hopeless last year, not sure if this is what you have or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raulroflcopter Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 When I ordered this record from Hot Topic over the summer, I assumed it would be on white vinyl since that was what Merchnow carried. However, it wasn't advertised as so, and I got it on black vinyl. Not a problem at all, but I emailed Hopeless anyway to ask about the pressing info. They told me there were no plans for a repress and that it was 500 copies on black, 500 copies on white. If anything, it looks great with the artwork. If they advertised it as white from where you bought it though, you could get a refund for the correct color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazon does say "first pressing is on white vinyl" under the product description. Thanks for the pressing info too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did technically mail you the incorrect product. You should be able to do an exchange at least, not sure if Amazon's policy would you let keep it. Contact them? Worst that happens is you keeping the plain black vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
