Into The Wild Vinyl Question

I just purchased and received a Into The Wild Vinyl off of Ebay, I took it out of the plastic protection sleeve and right in the middle of the upper spine of the vinyl there is about a 2 to 2 and half inch rip, it looks to be just a stress tear from holding a book, 33, and 45 in it together, I just wanna know did some of the Into The Wild vinyls come like this from the original shipping from 10c or should I file an insurance claim about it?

    the tear in question was unfortunately a common issue with this vinyl,...
    To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

    "Me knowing the truth, I can not concur."

    I'm sorry my friend but no dice, I have wanted this vinyl for some time and saved up the 200 dollars to get it. I'm hoping to wait outside of eddie's tour bus and get him to put seal of approval on it.

    what would happen if ed comes up to you, all drunkin up after the show; see's you are offering the vinyl to him (as a gift, not knowing you just wanted a sig) and he takes it with him on the bus? :o

    I have the tear in mine as well.... :cry:
    Conversations getting dull
    There's a constant ringing in my ears
    Sense of humor's void and numb
    And I'm bored to tears.......

    I'm assuming you mean the top seam of the back gatefold? It's not only ITW, it's alotta newer, heavier vinyl.

    Thanks for the heads up. I was gonna show up in a bus disguised as Eddie.

    Well, back to the drawing board.

    When I received mine from the 10c the original outside packaging had a kinda dent tear in it..
    When I got the album out it was on the spine of the of the gatefold when I opened it out it was like double the size in the middle of the album .......had the album been packaged the other way it wouldnt have been as bad..
    but because it was the middle of the spine it was like two tears joined together if u get what I mean..

    The vinyl was fine...... it did have 2 big greasy looking fingerprints on it tho..

  • Many of these had the tear on the binding... it seemed to be very common...

    Luckily the ones I have do not have the tears... yay
  • Hey All, yesterday was my 30th and my wife was able to find me a sealed into the wild vinyl as a gift. She ordered and returned THREE of them (she wouldnt tell me her source) because they were all damaged. The one she settled on was the best of the bad lot... the corners were a bit bent and the vinyl itself had cut through the top edge of the cover. So, I got the sense that there arent many in good condition that are available!!
