    I have fully functioning vinyl now(both a red & a black copy - nice!) but waiting on a decent cover & sleeves. I had forgotten to e-mail about that with trip comedown & then Christmas warm-up but e-mailed 10c a few days ago so hopefully get a response & new cover & sleeves in the new year. Hope they'll send me 2 sleeves now that I have 2 (playable) copies with the black & the red! :o8-)

    Not sure if I'd posted here or just fb but have found a good use for my unplayable copy:

    This is bloody brilliant.

    I finally got a record player and was able to try my copy out. I was one of the lucky kids who got it day of release (if I recall correctly) but only just got to play it tonight. (Irony, eh? Of the cosmic sort, I think.) And of course it's popping and skipping all over the place, and looping in other places, and the sleeve is split, so here's hoping for a good replacement.

    In the meantime, I'll be looking forward to making a clock out of the bad copy.

    So all I got was a New vinyl when I sent photos with cover having problems and the inner sleeve for vinyl. The Vinyl was in a sleeve but not original just normal black sleeve. I had sent notice right after I got it and had to re email and then asked to submit photos etc. Then I just get the Vinyl.

    Guess this been a total F up for club etc. Hope they can get it straightened out for all effected.

    Good time to play F****** Up I guess and take a chill pill. :corn:


    Keep emailing the people at the record company with pictures of the damage. Tell them you got the replacement vinyl but not a replacement packaging and the will eventually send you a replacement, hell they ended up sending me two replacements.

    Or another idea, send them your vinyl and they'll make you a journal out of it...

    They are no longer giving replacements? Waiting 4 days now for a reply from these guys.

    I e-mailed during the Christmas period about getting a replacement cover & haven't heard from anyone yet. Not the best time to e-mail of course but I'd'v hoped I'd'v heard by now. I guess I'll e-mail again. Have people had quick turnaround on getting replacement covers?

    Good RCA vinyl cleaning kit should help that right out.

    Sorry if I missed it, but how do you know if you have a second pressing? I just bought one from Barnes and Noble. THanks!

    Got a diff email to send to from another user here. Received a reply back within a matter of minutes.

    Apparently their office has been closed for the last week due to the storms across Indiana. She told me they will start getting back to emails very shortly.

    Are you guys talking about emails from 10C or from the manufacturers?

    Turns out since I got it from an Amazon associate seller, I need to email them about a replacement.

    Soul, I got a copy of the actual album as a late X-mas gift, lp was F'ed up of course. Turns out the one you gave me is the only one that is working.
