Samdroid Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Got mine today, the cardboard is even flimsier than I expected. Pretty disappointing. Haven't listened yet, I'll report back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbrh2001 Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Guess i'm not getting mine this week Didnt get mine either. Its killing me that people have had this since early this week and if USPS doesnt deliver it tomorrow, ill have to wait till Monday. Would love to be sipping some coffee on Sunday morning with my headphones on and this record spinning.Typically Im not this impatient with records arriving in the mail.

justin8821 Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I ordered the night it went online but I still tend to get things in the mail a few days or a little while after everyone else something with the mail service around here I guess. Can't wait to put this on the turntable and give it some listens. The mp3's have been helping me fall asleep. Hoping the gatefold isn't too flimsy/bad.

As long as my record doesnt arrive warped, the gatefold can continue to house it for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangesix Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 mine was poorly packed as others have said. Came slightly damaged. Sounds great though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jared Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Got my copy in yesterday. Just thrown into a mailer with no protection and has a split, but oh well. I'm just glad the record isn't warped at all and sounds absolutely fantastic. Probably the definitive way to listen to this album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattalica17 Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 anyone who has not got it in the mail yet just hold a box of crackers until it comes the packaging is about as thick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turnstiles Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 got mine the other day, same flimsy shipping complaint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sideny Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 They definitely should've had the record outside of the gatefold. Split through half the top seam, but the record wasn't damaged at all so I'm still pretty happy. Wonder if its worth contacting them to see if they'd replace the jacket? I paid 40 bucks for this..

I think you should if it really bugs you. For $40 they should have put more quality into shipping this item. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is going to be in stores eventually right? I'll probably just buy another one. Also, when I said to ignore what you were saying, that was supposed to go both ways, for the other guy too. It takes two. Hope theres no hard feelings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidamnesiac Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 There were tons of copies of this at Amoeba today. Very cheap-looking package for $30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somethingvinyl Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Got this today. Giant mailer with this LP bouncing around inside with no padding and the CD out of the gatefold, bouncing around as well -- all the way from the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synapsistapped Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 There were tons of copies of this at Amoeba today. Very cheap-looking package for $30. Picked this up at Amoeba in SF today. It came shrink-wrapped with no damage to the packaging. Either way, I don't care about the flimsy cardboard. Nor do I care about the blurry cover. The record looks like it was pressed well and it sounds great; that's all that matters to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turnstiles Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 hah affirmation of my concern! If the record was a fish inside the box, it would have a lot of room to swim around in. That's all I'll say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
