JFC1549 Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Anyone know who sells em with the replacement disc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russtcb Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Trying to get a copy that is not mis-pressed is not easy. So you'd be entering a bit of a gamble. Ah. Any idea if the corrected one would be more widely available down the line? I could always hold onto my mo-fi until that time if so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korgull Of Morgoth Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I currently have the Mo-Fi version of Angel Dust. Would it be worth my while to trade it toward/replace it with the MOV edition instead? Never liked the Mo-Fi remaster. Definitely prefer the MOV version.

828321 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Ah. Any idea if the corrected one would be more widely available down the line? I could always hold onto my mo-fi until that time if so. This is an issue. I asked the same thing of MOV because I wanted the black version but didn't want to get another mispress, so I asked them directly. Sadly I didn't get a response as there seemed to be a bit of tension between myself and MOV over the inclusion of a replacement record on the Discogs database. I don;lt want to put too fine a point in the replacement disc, but it was already on the database, I had already consulted with the database manager and was advised it could not be removed. In any case, my main query was not replied to. MOV acted professionally regarding my main issue and repressed the records and sent me replacement discs for my two blue versions. I kept the original mispressed discs as did a handful of initial complainants. Soon they changed the process and asked for the whole release back and returned it to customers without the mispressed record but with the replacement disc. At random I've been asking sellers to check their copies for the repressed disc (black only) and so far each seller has said that either they were told by their suppliers (not MOV I should add) that they had the repressed disc but upon inspection found it was the mispress or they simply found they had the mispressed version. I've yet to source a repressed version out in the wild which leads me to believe that people are only getting them from MOV or via complaints with their vendors who then source a replacement. Though I'm willing to bet the majority of those vendors who receive a complaint will simply refund the buyer and sell the thing again without ever trying to source a replacement disc. With this in mind, there may be repressed copies out there but I'm not seeing them. To obtain a properly pressed version of this album is overly complicated. russtcb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickydenim Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I got a mispress blue from Amazon Uk and was thinking of emailing them but just decided to live with it. It's not a huge issue for me. I have both the MOFI and MOV and I'll definitely be listening to the MOV issue more regardless of the blip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russtcb Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Thanks for all the info. It sounds like I may just trade my mo-fi up the MOV and deal with the blip or hope I get a re-press by chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFC1549 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Hey got an email back regarding my angel dust vinyl.. Music on vinyl said to send it back and include my shipping info. Any idea what the cost will be to send to the Netherlands from NYC?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vool Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 2xLP around $27 would be my guess...at least that's what most US distros are calculating when shipping a 2xLP to Germany... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russtcb Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 One of my local shops said they'd order it in for me, let me check the run out and if it was right, exchange my Mo-Fi for it. It came in this morning and sure enough, it's the re-press! Thanks again for all the info. I would have never known about the problem in the first place or what to look for on the corrected version if it weren't for all the info in this thread.

heypeterman Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Just received a black copy from amazon.ca and it has the wobble. Impossible to miss if yours is affected. I'll contact MOV but I'm not paying to send this back, I'll just return it to amazon and stick with my Mo-Fi copy for now. We'll see what they say.

heypeterman Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 MOV told me to return my copy to amazon and ask for a new one. I guess so I get another with the same issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vool Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Anybody has a fixed blue ANGEL DUST and/or golden ALBUM OF THE YEAR for sale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korgull Of Morgoth Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Anybody has a fixed blue ANGEL DUST and/or golden ALBUM OF THE YEAR for sale? I recently ordered a copy of AOTY from Amazon.it as they were advertising it as BLACK wax. When it came in I noticed it was the golden version so you might want to try your luck with them. At least you can always return it for a refund or exchange with something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazon in the UK are always doing this. Anybody has a fixed blue ANGEL DUST and/or golden ALBUM OF THE YEAR for sale? This is the marketplace page for the fixed Angel Dust pressing on Discogs. I try to clean it up and have asked users selling this to confirm how they know it is the repress. None so far have confirmed the correct runout/matrix inscription but most refused to check because the item is sealed. You could ask some of the sellers to check the vinyl incription for side B to ensure you're getting the repress/2nd press. You'll probably hit abrick wall though as I am also after another repressed copy. Album of the year, Golden Edition: http://www.discogs.com/marketplace?release_id=4822602&ev=rb 11 copies for sale.

Whip Wilson Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 The corrected Angel Dust was hard to come by. Especially when I bout it last Fall. I ended up paying $10-15 more by getting it from someone on eBay who had mailed in for the replacement disc. I overpaid, but I got the origal, 2xLP release and the replacement, slightly different color blue, disc two as well. The place I bought it from told me thatbwhen MOV started repressing the record because they learned of the issue, they made extra copies of disc two so the first x-number of customers could get a replacement directly from MOV. When those ran out, they started telling folks to return their copies to the seller. Not sure how accurate this is, but that's what one shop owner told me.

828321 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 It was myself who reported the problem to them and they just sent me a replacement disc (they actually sent me two). They then asked people to return the faulty record and sent it back with disc 1 replaced. I;ve never seen the replacement available from a distributor as some of those Discogs sellers claim. They claim their distributors say they are repressed but not a single one would agree to check the record because it is "sealed". If I was an customer and ordered one of these I would demand a full refund personally as the item is faulty. Edit: I have also asked MOV directly if repressed/fixed version were sent out to distributors and they have not responded to this and several other queries since they had a tantrum of me adding the single replacement disc to Discogs as a standalone item following advice directly from the Discogs management. Whether people approaching them now are told to get a refund from the seller is another matter, my last comments with MOV was not along those lines and advised that they did not want to discourage direct contact.

The Vool Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Thanks. I bet the sellers won't open the seal to verify...but that's basically my problem. Don't wanna get the mispress and then in the end MOV doesn't reply or sent a repress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't wanna get the mispress and then in the end MOV doesn't reply or sent a repress I went through every copy and I after consulting with Discogs staff we were not satisfied that ANY were the repress. As such we removed them all but one which we are waiting for a reply on. It appears that absolutely no copies of Blue were recalled. As such the seller personally asked for a replacement disc, they won't have one. We also found that the one copy that sold through Discogs was also really the mispressed version sold on the wrong page. Remember sealed only means sealed and that the packaging on these is resealable. Look for a confirmed copy which has been checked, perhaps on ebay?When is the last time anyone with the mispress contacted MOV? They may still be replacing them?!

The Vool Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Yeah, asked a few ones on eBay Germany...the only reply I got was that it's the mispress... So, there might be a chance that I buy a mispress and MOV is replacing it with the repress? I think I'll give it a shot and send them a mail...

ExtraFox Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 MOV replaced my faulty copy last month but wouldn't pay the postage to send it to them. The impression they gave was that the were replacing them grudgingly and would prefer them to be returned to the shop you bought them from, but they did still replace it.
