gud Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Killer show, great ticket prices, and Tweak Bird killed it, but straight up F some Melvins vinyl prices. Yeah, it fetches a lot of money on the secondary market, and they should "get theirs" but $45 for a single picture disc LP is ridiculous. I did end up w/ the new Tweak Bird LP and both 7"s for $20, and those albums are rippers! oh yeah? i thought about picking up TweakBird's new one. How is it? I liked what i heard and I loved the last one oh so very much after i saw them at the cradle, i think, opening for BigBusiness or Mastodon(?). But i paid $35 for Bulls&Bees and that just about tapped me out of buyin anything else besides a few beers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chipfondoo Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 So did anybody else's lps arrive with bent corners? Fairly bad ones at that. Water damage on one, my b&b....ohh and it was covered in pixie dust. Everyone damaged in some way except the splits. I know these were leftovers sent back. So I am seeing if I was the only one getting the shit end of that purchase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chipfondoo Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Damage that was obviously done pre-shipping. Packaged well but lps were rough. The box shipped in wasn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chipfondoo Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Damaged at all. Sorry droid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nothingnatural Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Sucks that yours are messed up. My stuff arrived perfectly. They didn't provide the Priority shipping I paid for but I'm not complaining. I mentioned it earlier in the thread but the B&Bs I got from the Sacramento show had the "pixie dust" all over but I just cleaned them and replaced the inner sleeves. Nothing's wrong with the records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gud Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 this is the variant they had at the show. 377/500 the sound quality was perfect; didn't have to adjust anything when i ripped it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apirk Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 I had a split on the top of my Freak Puke but that was from the first time they were put up, just pixie dust on my B&B from this last batch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jared Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 There is a split on mine as well - on the spine. It's kind of bugging me, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxstefanxx Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Hurray. my second copy of Freak Puke arrived. With a nice seamsplit, bend corners and with all my possible luck, another Tara design. Wonderful :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
octave Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Just FYI, Dave Cooper has some copies of his version of the Freak Puke LP up for sale, which you can get signed a number of ways apparently.

maximuss Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 cool, got one in, it looks expensive but it is much cheaper for me than going to ebay and it's signed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mameeshkamowskwoz Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Mine arrived in fine condition. My only complaint was that I bought the splts and Freak Puke was not up yet so I checked out and then the FPs went up. I sent an email asking for a partial refund for shipping them together and never got an answer. And of course they all arrived in the same package. And my 2 Freak Pukes were identical. I have TWO complaints, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mameeshkamowskwoz Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Already traded it out. I probably should have called that out. I forget the artist, but it's the one with the titties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nothingnatural Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I still have an extra Skinner available for trade. Looking for either a Mackie Osborne or a Tara McPherson. If interested, send me a PM. I have some other Melvins stuff that will be available for trade soon but I'll just make a thread for that when the time comes.
