Recrod Distribuitor Rage


Recommended Posts

This is just a random rage venting and who knows, maybe I'm wrong.

 

I'm going through my records and just looking at them for the first time in a while and it brings me back to some random rage I get when I buy certain records, more importantly when I buy multiple variants of the same at one time.

 

I remember when the first pressing of Brand New's The Devil and God...came out and I was quick to pick up a copy of each.  Sure enough they got sent to me and non of them were labeled which color.  I guess I could have just made a small slit but instead I basically started opening one after the other until the last one was left.  It felt kind of like Russian roulette as I was sitting there hoping the last one would be the most limited pressing, which it was not.

 

Anyone else have similar beef?

There should have been a sticker on the cover

I shrink myself down rrrrreally small. Smaller than is visible to the naked eye. I easily slip between the tiny breathing holes in the shrinkwrap. For two days I make the trek over to the side of the jacket and inside the dust sleeve to confirm the color.

If it's the least limited variant I return to normal size from inside the jacket and rip through it like the hulk.

So no. I don't have this problem
