    I wouldn't risk it. The vinyl has been pulled from the 10c store AND Amazon.

    I hope this is something that would be replaced. And my tracking tells me I wont be getting it till the 21st... What's the point of preordering.. If it is not up to snuff then what ship back... wait another month to get another copy shipped out... bummed out especially after getting my vault 3 and not being fully satisfied bubbling on cover and peeling not to happy... :oops: All that set aside still buzzing from Tuesdays show couldn't have asked for a better show!!!! :D

    So if I understand this correctly, not only is the vinyl late but it could very well be defective? Its nice to see Ten Club on top of this letting everyone know about the situation

    Count me in on the bad press. Lots of pops on this one. Definite disappointment as far as quality goes, not to mention shipping was overpriced and 4 days late, and the record got dinged and the jacket split in transit. I would expect for for $32 (inc. shipping).
