Yesterday nr. 203 / 500 arrived at my doorstep. Idiots actually did place it there literally!!!! It fell in when my wife opened the door. It wasn' t damaged but I guess that's just a big luck considering the weather lately... Maybe that's why there are 570??? To be able to replace damaged versions?

I am coordinating an event here for all those folks that have received damaged items or have not received the item at all.

Go here www.facebook.com/events/413597022027179/ and add a comment either Damaged or Not Received if this applies to you and I'll take up the case with Universal.

Similar thing happened to me once too. The LP (it was signed Incantations I think) was not sent as a package, but as a letter. (Physically it was packed well, but it was marked as a letter) Because it did not fit in our Post box, the postman put it under it right on the pavement. Imagine that! Anyone walking around in the street could have taken it and it was even supposed to rain that day! I was furious!
Luckily our street is quite calm and we live in a house with some lawn from the main street, but anyway...
I got in contact with our post office and ask them to better store it in the office if they can't reach anyone home.
I understand they've got their stamdard procedures of handling different types of letters and packages, but imho sometimes they could use their brains over blind rules.

I woudnt mind a damaged one !!!
I am sure they will not contact me with even a damaged copy.
Universal always send there goods by the cheapest post possable,and if it gets lost , hard luck, they just do not care.


Off the subject a bit , but its like the mess with the Beatles Love Me Do 50th anniversary single, EMI pressed the wrong version and the B side had the wrong catalogue number. They re pressed the right version and still put the wrong number on it !
Record companies just do not care.

That adds to my conclusion. I placed my order very early and received #470.

Same thing here #455/500
