Just to say that Rough Trade might have balled this up, be careful who you do Business with?

Doubt they'd care/take any notice.

Mine was packaged fine.

Has anybody opened or listened to theirs yet? Got mine through middle of last week but I can't bring myself to break the sticker seal.. Just wondered if anybody had found out if there was anything more interesting than the white sleeve. Couple of words, maybe a picture?

Two white paper sleeves. Two white label pieces of vinyl. No printed text inside the sleeve at all. Sides identified by the sratchings in the runout groove, along with a message identifying what album it is and a couple of quotations.

Mine finally arrived today of all days - maybe Royal Mail were delivering today to make up for a lack of deliveries in the week. Still can't believe it got to America before mine did despite ordering it quite soon after this helping thread started.

Cheers. I doubt I'll bother opening it then

Hey, just ordered one, hope it makes it to NYC in one piece! Are these numbered in any way?

Look at my pic on page 2/3, the answer to your question though, is no, nothing not a sausage, just a label with deatialed info on tracklisting!

You do wonder what rough trade done to these records. Mine seems to have a kinda yellow mark on the back which has taken the white surface off. Its quite annoying but if they are 1/300 then I guess they will be a great piece to have anyway.

Someone mentioned that earlier and I want to respond.
Yes, Rough Trade isn't responsible for damage done in transit. They are responsible for using safe packing.

ah cool they're normally good. If you go to the shop they're nice and talk to you and everything. Not the usual grunt you get from other london shops

Mine was ripped open on arrival !!!! Didn't really matter as I'd have opened it to play it anyways.
