Bandbox: an uncompensated review of an interesting new club

[Djxfactor511]

Did yours notate it was the hand pour on the shipping notice or on the outside sleeve? I ordered the hand poured but gray version was on the shipping notification and I am kind of afraid to open it tbh.

My notice listed the grey version, which is why I opened mine right away.

Ok. I will open mine then. Fingers crossed.

This hobby is hard sometimes. Got atmosphere yesterday, scratched pretty heavily in a few spots. Reached out to CS, no replacements available UNLESS someone sends a return? Never heard that one before.

That hand poured one sold out, didn't it? That's a real bummer.

Yes, it did. I’ve had issues with other sold out variants before and they always had a few extra in case of damage.

I get the perils of mass manufacturing, but it still horks me off to an unreasonable level to get a brand new record out of the shrink with scratches. My MBV analog Loveless had that and I’m still salty.

Obviously I’m not a pressing plant manager, but it probably takes what, 30 minutes to make a handful of extras? There’s going to be some discrepancies in a batch of pressings. No batch will be 100% foolproof.

Mine’s been sitting going on a week at label created. Anyone seen movement?

Just got mine today!

Mines currently in the parcel locker because the mail carrier doesn’t know how to make sure packages aren’t blocking the latch mechanism. I regularly have this problem

Fuuu, me too! I took a hammer and screwdriver to mine and bent it up so bad to get my records out that they stopped using it. Probably a crime tho

I called the post office this morning and they were supposed to send them back out but it’s cold so I don’t know if they’ve been back and not sure if I want to walk back over there

Got the email that my login is ready but having a bunch of issues swapping. For some reason it says I now have two March swaps available but nothing for Feb?

It won't even load if I click the link. Maybe a bit premature to send those emails...

Same.

It seems to have updated a bit. I’ll check back tomorrow

When do we have to choose our record by?

 

[Hemotep]

I don't like that I can't see all my open orders anymore. And it's not clear how many months are left on my subscription that started in August. I'd like to be able to see that.

 

[Hemotep]

I think before the 1st of each month.
