davisonmp28 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Mine shipped a month ago (12/11) and I'm still waiting. I live in Indiana. Getting real anxious. Any other midwesterners get their copies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heresyourletter Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Got mine yesterday in Maryland. Seam splits and warped record with some surface noise. Is this the norm for a bootleg? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

booms528 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Wish they had been numbering these limited editions the whole time, not jsut starting now with Beasties and Beyonce. But I guess there's not much room to complain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess there's not much room to complain. who cares about numbering on a bootleg? numbered by an anonymous person? they numbered the django bootleg too and i saw several blank copies and several 0002/500.

Guest thomasbirdsall37 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 my graduation arrived perfectly too, great condition, played well. i guess a lot depends on how far and wide the vinyl has travelled to get to its destination and the wear and tear factor! i wish the shops would take more greater care when unboxing reboxing and packing the vinyl! but cant complain mine looks good harsh comments about my message, i was all happy and there are some doom and gloomers:huh: out there picking on me lol, cheer up! just thought this is a nice place for my music hobby and collecting! #cheerup lols:D um i still dnt know how to add a picture to my post, i tried to click on the image button but that didnt work. help anyone? found some links to the new beastie and beyonce releases here though - https://www.facebook.com/thevinyl.nevvs https://twitter.com/The_Vinyl_News *drools* cant wait! i for one care about numbering or some kind of commitment to limiting the qty of a product, makes it more fun to collect knowing i got one of a select amount in the world. i doubt they will be making mistakes if they went to all that trouble to number them the intention must be to keep it exclusive for the fans. not to mention it growing in value after keeping it for a few years #investment !

passionbrand Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 They actually manufacture the jackets with the seam splits already there. like those expensive jeans with the knees already ripped for you. you guys are lucky you didn't have to pay extra for that kind of cool RowBearToe and dreamover 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thomasbirdsall37 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 actually sleeve / jackets that have splits are due to bad handling and shipping of the vinyl. if the vinyl is not firmly packed it bouncing around in the box on its way to the destination and the constantly friction of the spine against the box makes it tear or split.

(as my example above). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thomasbirdsall37 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 these guys have gone through a lot of trouble to start numbering them so i think they are listening to us fans more now, they are even puting a certificate in each copy. to me that shows dedication and commitment. before it was just random and pot luck, now it seems more effort to highlight that they are limited, so i think we are in for a treat.

Cloudsbelow Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 hahaha if you think people who bootleg albums care enough to keep a limited numbered run actually numbered and in that # of pressed range.. you're deluded.. all they see are $$$ if they press 500 and they sell, then they press another 500.. if anyone out there thinks that the yeezus press only got 750 copies and somehow half are missing bound 2 and the other half have it.. errrr think again.
