This is the result I was looking for, and hopefully the replacements are in decent shape. Well done! Here's hoping the replacement is a good 'un! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has answered my question. Considering he now has an issue, a local purchase may have yielded a quicker and more immediate turnaround. Your reaction to my question seems to matter more. To you. Nah mate. Your question was irrelevant to the OP's problem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on other crappy pressings I’ve bought, I’m suspecting employee 1600 is moonlighting at a few record companies ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine plays flawlessly (got the chance to listen through last night)... so hopefully yours is an aberration and you have the replacements soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goatboy Posted August 24, 2019 Author Share Posted August 24, 2019 @furtherpale - thanks. I’ve spun the undamaged vinyl and it sounds fantastic and beats out the 33 1/3 MOFI pressing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the run for these that probably wasn’t an issue, however I was also hoping to get a low number copy. Not that that happened either. Lol. I completely understand and can relate to that but I'll send it back. I cope with a lot but that is just too much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only recently realised there’s a business connection between MOFI and Music Direct. Apparently Music Direct bought MOFI’s assets in 2001 post bankruptcy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goatboy Posted September 16, 2019 Author Share Posted September 16, 2019 Received the replacement record. In the end my RCM was able to clear up LP2 and there is no audible damage. The replacement vinyl wasn’t pristine, but it plays fine. Now awaiting new sleeves. I wasn’t asked to send anything back and MOFI are eating the shipping costs. From comments across forums these issues aren’t rare, so it must be eating into MOFI’s profitability. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
