    I held it up to the light. They must of used a flood light in the ten club picture. Thought I ordered a red vinyl? Guess I got a purple one.

    Not red, but I also don't complain about my red wine when it shows up purple.

    Bigger fish to fry out there.

    I died. I died and you just stood there. I died and you watched. I died and you walked by and said no. I'm dead.

    Yeah, I think so. When I hold mine up to a light it is actually pretty damn close to the colour in the photo. That said, it should look closer to that colour when it's not held up to a light.

    Never assume a colored record will look like the mockup. this is Vinyl Variant 101 people.

    I get the "it looks a lot more smokey on the image" or KISS fans not thinking the Unmasked splatter was as splattery as they hoped.

    But something named RED shouldn't be purple.

    Its more of a burgundy.

    Out of all the gripes you can have with merch or 10c or whatever, this one is splitting hairs. Not every plant has the same color mix for a record. I mean, if this thing showed up as fucking green, then sure, its really worth complaining about (I guess).

    Got it, so you're knocking on ten club's door to let them know you don't want to talk to them.

    I wish I could contribute to the discussion but mine has been “in transit to the next facility” since 4/26.

    Looks like quality. Maybe I’ll buy it so then I would have a red vinyl.

    FFS.  Quit crying about everything.  The colors are hardly ever exact. 

    Gee,  I hope my clear vinyl is clear!

    No one is crying FFS, it’s a valid observation that we were sold a purple record that looks red when placed behind a flood lamp. The picture for the record is not what it looks like when pulled from the sleeve. It’s not even close tbh. It’s not going to stop me from spinning it but it is a known observation. I hope ur clear is clear too but I won’t slam u for making an observation if you choose to. What else was cried about? You said cry about everything…

    After being stuck in limbo for a week mine had some movement yesterday and tracking said it would be delivered today. Now it just changed to Monday. At least I have two other variants to listen to.
