dreamover Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Looking to hear from AinR before I open this because Amazon probably won't let me get a full refund if opened. Amazon lets you return just about everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mymirrorspeaks Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Fuck. Mine just arrived. I don't even want to open it. I just want to send it back for a full refund and not deal with this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewberinger Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Feel bad about buying Transatlanticism, The Photo Album, and Something About Airplanes off of someone who purchased this box set. sounds like Transatlanticism and Airplanes were unaffected by this mishap, so yay?

000000 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Feel bad about buying Transatlanticism, The Photo Album, and Something About Airplanes off of someone who purchased this box set. Oh hey, haha. I mean when it really comes down to it, they're just labels. I support the sticker idea. It's not like I'm gonna be selling these off anyway.

ex lion tamer Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 To my knowledge my transatlantism and something about airplanes are fine. same, i just checked and these two are the only records with the right labels. apart from that a couple of the records are slightly warped, there's a dark stain on the front of the case, and the sleeves have some bent corners and dents from where they hit the cardboard slots in the box. i think i'd be more willing to overlook most of this stuff if not for the price.

amnstypls Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 So, correct me if I'm wrong but, 1000 sets at $250 right? For a quarter of a million dollars, they couldn't afford to hire someone who doesnt have their head completely up their ass??

aellerton Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 To my knowledge my transatlantism and something about airplanes are fine. Of course, those are the only two I have other copies of... This was actually a christmas gift from my parents. CHRISTMAS IS RUINED!!!!!!! Fucking same!! This was my "big" xmas gift this year...

noalarmplanet Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I got an email back from A I R asking me to expand on what I meant by mislabeled records. For a "Deluxe" box set this big they should fucking correct it, or give me half my money back. Half ass job, Half price rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamrocks Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 i think its safe to say it wont get corrected, although i could see them sending out new labels and instructions on how to fix the mixup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kas1985 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Just got my shipping confirmation. Seeing how fucked up this whole thing is, I'm not excited at all about getting it now. Not how you should feel when you spend $250, in my opinion. YouLoveHisWife 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacobMckinley Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Is this something one could open a paypal dispute about? i feel like the product advertised is not the product recieved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zacooper Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Really glad I canceled this yesterday now. Maybe I can pick it up on the real cheap down the road now. Sorry to everyone who got screwed on this thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andables Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Look on the bright side everyone, there will probably be an opening at A+R or Basurk in their QA dept after this. I'd get my resume prepped and ready to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futures Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Those who have emailed AinR: Would you mind posting the email address you used so we can make sure we're all contacting the same one? If they get a high volume of mail regarding the same issue, they can't continue to ask us to "expand" upon the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrickemmons Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 This has to be a Rainbo Records fuck up - that plant is terrible. I'm willing to bet that's the case. What does the matrix look like? I know Pirates has their name on the matrix usually noalarmplanet, batman and themeconspiracy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Pirates has their name on the matrix usually I just read that thread that was posted about the Beck & Sigur Ros boxsets being messed up and they mentioned those were Rainbo pressings and that AinR were frustrated with them and were looking to work with someone else on future projects. Guess AinR lied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreamover Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 They said they wouldn't use rainbo anymore though I guess they may. Also, when people complain, I think they should contact or CC Barsuk as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
