    I would have to imagine they have a few boxes of extras at the warehouse, that they will later sell at an inflated price, like they did with the Benny's at the poster convention.
    Good Luck

    they sold bennys at a poster convention??? how much?

    $400

    Was it a charitable drive or something? Something to raise money for?

    They have to replace this! I have never seen anything like this.

    Still haven't received mine - read that incredible story here:

    Really worried about mine! And all the others out there waiting for theirs... :(

    Damn dude. Hope you're able to replace it. Those pics are horrible.

    Oh man, that stinks. Hope you get sorted.

    That does look like a truck ran over it, and then had the nerve to repackage and even more nerve to deliver it. No way did it look like that when 10c dropped it off for shipping. My box came completely blemish-free, and it didn't have that weird plastic wrapping over it or the strapping tape. It look like someone's lame attempt to make like nothing happened. May the culprit be without the joy of music in their next life, they are undeserving. :evil: ooh I just want to go slap that piece of crap human being around, that makes me so angry!!

    It doesn't help any that your package took a lap around the US before showing up at your doorstop

    At least this one arrived safe and sound:

    But seriously, they better have a few, strike that, many extras to replace these damaged around the world packages.

    Holy Shit this makes me nervous at mine being shipped all over the place...Hope mine is fine when it comes.

    Not impressed with Mail Innovations or whatever its called...Talked with them by phone today and all they could say was Yes it should have been delivered yesterday since it is a 10 business day mailing service.

    That's what I'm asking myself too. I'm so sorry for you, OP. Your pics reminded me of when my container arrived around a year ago and half my stuff had been destroyed by Sandy (yes, they still delivered everything, the wet stuff nicely repackaged in plastics so the mold could develop properly :twisted: ). It's so awful when stuff like this is out of your hands.

    I hope you'll get a replacement.

    I read a thread regarding an item that was being shipped from one location, and then would travel and arrive in multiple destinations before reaching it's final stop. Was this the item? I'm just curious. I would be nervous following the tracking of a vinyl if it was getting shipped all over the damn place prior to it arriving at my doorsteps. I hope no one else experiences this situation when their vinyl arrives. Man, I am sorry to see that happen. Hopefully they made some extras to accommodate the customer in the event something like this happened

    I pray 10club has a spare copy for you. They must have a dozen or so copies if something like this were to ever happen. :shock:

    2 time's this has happened to me where I received a print that was shipped via UPS. They were at my door and they still had the nerve to ask for money via customs / duty taxes, and not feel sorry the tube was dented at various places. HELL NO!! Since then any artist or merchandise store that ships with UPS I say no to or ask if they can ship it via USPS. Only PearlJam.com do they ship UPS but when those packages come across the border to Canada, it's shipped by Canada Post. Thank you jebus!!

    i would just send it back to them. mine arrived yesterday and i have to say they were packed quite well. each was packed in the plastic mailer and then bubble wrapped together.
    they have more. i emailed on Benny to see if they had any, they said no. then that poster show happened and they were there for $400.
    looks like yours got caught in sorting belt.
    good luck on the return.

    My vault vinyl arrived today absolutely destroyed. It looks like it was run over by a truck. I don't even know how it happened. I emailed 10c today with 8 pictures of the damage. Worst part is this seems to be irreplaceable since they only made enough for people who ordered. So I guess the waiting was fun but I don't get to enjoy it like I intended.

    I feel for you.

    I had a similar experience with the original pressing of the deluxe PJ20 DVDs. Except in my case, 10C claimed that it had been lost in the postal service. I had the item in my order history, but never received any shipping confirmation information. I was issued a refund and told by most of the 10C sycophants on this board to have a nice cup of STFU.

    :( That is horrible! Looking at the pictures, it doesn't look like the box Ten Club sent it in and that it was definitely damaged on its way. 10 Club has to have to a different method of shipping. At least with the old way, it wouldn't go across the country in different places to reach a destination.

  • Damn man that is nuts! I'm really sorry to see those photos.


    mine arrive and the front and back cover are rather blistered. Not at all what I was expecting. It was obviously defective so why even send it that way. I guess iI should email tenc
    it's largely due to eddie that i liked to jump off of things as a child...

    Thats what happens when a package sits in the possession of UPS AND USPS for 10 days. I like how they tried to close the package up with plastic like everything was all fine and dandy!

    I hope 10c replaces this, but I doubt they have extra pressings. Good luck to you, hopefully these go down in price on the secondary market so you can snag a replacement at a decent price!
  • pjradiopjradio Posts: 6,704
    gotta say...your packaging look way different than mine...I barely had any tape on the outer box. Yours seem to have tons!...weird.

    That is beyond belief that it could be damaged that badly.

    Say it did get run over by a truck ... how does that even happen? It's almost like someone would have to do it on purpose.

    Like others have said, that box in the damaged pictures doesn't even look like the box mine was packaged in (ignoring the damage).

    OMG, did you email <!-- e --><a href="mailto:shipping@tenclub.net">shipping@tenclub.net</a><!-- e -->?
    They are usually really good about responding. With the tour in a few days, you probably want to email them ASAP.
    Please let us know the response and good luck.

    How on earth is that even possible to fuck up like that?! It's one of those that the more I look at the pics, the more questions it raises. How? How? HOW?!

    Hope TC sort that out for you mate - best of luck.

    At the very least I hope you can get some money back. If not from 10c I would file a claim with UPS and/or USPS. Packages shipped through UPS are insured up to $100. Not sure what the USPS limit is. $100 also I think.

    I would definitely file a claim with usps and/or ups. They should be held accountable for how that was handled.

    And I'm sure 10C will do everything they can to help you out with this.
