+hecollec+or Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 What kind of damage? Is the mailer damaged also or just the vinyl? Just curious. I see many people on here complain about HT shipping damage & am constantly surprised as its never happened to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it packed properly? A lot of times things are packed correctly and USPS just tosses stuff around and records end up getting damaged in transit.

Just curious. I see many people on here complain about HT shipping damage & am constantly surprised as its never happened to me. one batch was definitely ups or usps (went through both) as the box was beaten badly. one inch of one corner of all three was bent upwards pretty badly the other, 3 of 4 corners on all records were abused. it's hard to tell who was at fault because the box looked fine. but i know usps is rather abusive. i have noticed that the boxes hot topic use are a little thin and they don't pull em tight when they tape em. sometimes they use additional pads, and sometimes they don't. i just wish they would use boxing practices like soundstagedirect if they are going to be carrying so many sought after records.

museummouth Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Just got a copy of Everything Sucks. So far side A sounds perfectly fine to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+hecollec+or Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Not familiar w/ soundstage but I do wonder why HT doesn't use vinyl specific mailers like the ones Mondo, KRM or Music Record Shop use. Hell even Amazon uses those style now & has for about a year. Vinyl is obviously very popular at HT & definitely sells well. It would cut down on returns & complaints. Maybe some day.

travis Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 They should be using vinyl mailers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+hecollec+or Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Technically they do. the style I'm talking about are bigger than a vinyl, have two smaller cardboard flaps you put the record in between, then you close the other side & they sticker shut, then are opened by a pull tag. It's hard to describe. I'd post a pic but don't have that option on these boards. I've had less damage with these than the standard 12" square style mailer. I'm not complaining about my personal experiences.... HT packs mine well & have always been happy. Especially when they use the big bubbled insert sleeve.

For now they are using the standard LP mailers. I'll let them know some stuff is still getting damaged in transit and see if they can look into another mailer.

AussiePunkRocks Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Just got an email from Hot Topic. Despite ordering Out Come The Wolves on 2nd April, its just gone through as out of stock. So that means Heavy Petting Zoo cost $41.50 just for shipping instead of spreading the same shipping cost over 2 records. $64 for 1 record. lol. I hope it ends up being worth that much in the future! I got a reply back from Hot Topic. I can either do 'return to sender' or "If you wish to keep the LP we can do a one time exception and issue a credit for 5% off of the shipping cost." (thats about $2 off the shipping cost). Should I take it or leave it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
