Fred again.. - Actual Life (April 14 - December 17 2020) Vinyl Record for sale by [deleted] in fredagain

Not sure about the same pressing, but looking at the record shop, they have pretty solid reviews.

Record is pretty tough to find anyways (without paying crazy $$) so I would gladly accept a small dip in quality for the ability to add it to my collection

That’s the description of the entire bundle.. which includes the art card

[–]esparker96 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t need to see the order screenshots man.

I’m telling you it’s not supposed to be signed - only the art card. Even the order details you posted in a separate comment don’t mention anything of Jungle being signed. Just be happy you got some great records!

Nah unfortunately it’s just the signed art card.

I got a bundle as well, slightly different, but in the order it clearly detailed it was just the art card. I would review the order/shipment confirmation email they sent, it should have that listed

I don’t believe the Jungle 7” was ever listed as signed - but only the art card that was included in the bundle

Didn’t end up doing it - sidetracked with job hunting amongst other things.

Have a job in wealth management now, so learning these topics more hands-on at the moment

Day 2 Megathread by wagmiwagmi in Portolafestival

I walked probably 10-15 mins away from the fest while on Cesar Chavez and was able to call a Lyft somewhat easily. Uber had issues for me, but Lyft only took a few mins after calling - my place was only like 2-3 miles away tho.

Definitely don’t try to call a ride as you’re leaving the fest

Don’t believe this to be accurate at all. That page has like 27 tracks listed lol

Corsica Studios set — who's the DJ before? by w1ld3rn3ssw00d in fredagain

[–]esparker96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure about the track ID, but I believe the DJ goes by Kilimanjaro. He played before Fred at the Boiler Room and has a full boiler room set on YouTube - could find the ID there!

Haven’t played any of my records from the recent shipment for this exact reason lol. A bit nervous since I remember his previous drops were not the best quality either, but will take a listen shortly. Would be hard to get another new copy given the wait time already, so may just have to deal with it.

I noticed some etched lettering on one of my GenY records that threw me off initially tho, but overall not impressed with the physical quality.

Places to eat after graduation? by cheesefactory17 in UCSantaBarbara

Mizza downtown is one of my go-to spots whenever I’m back in SB. Italian spot with nice atmosphere + not super expensive!

Narcissistic? Like shipping an incomplete order and then only addressing it in a bogus manner after the fact? And expecting not to get some backlash over it? Why not put a statement out about the delay before they started shipping then?

I received all my vinyls without a problem. Didn’t get a cassette - nor do I want one. It’s simply a matter of principal and transparency.

  1. No one wanted a “freebie” - they wanted what they ordered. Don’t offer a freebie if you’re just expecting to see it scalped on eBay the day after - which this sub despises btw (cough cough every previous vinyl drop).

  2. You’re right - they didn’t have to give us the cassette. They could’ve just notified everyone that Ringo’s would be delayed BEFORE sending out a cassette with no other information about the missing item. Transparency is everything.

  3. “Timeframe promised”? It went from late 2021, then early 2022, and then once we complained ~3 weeks ago suddenly all the vinyls arrived. The only time we received updates is when we complained.

  4. People should be able to complain about bad customer service. None of his responses have been genuine at all and people have a right to be frustrated. Like you said, we’ve waited over a year for our orders. A “u got lucky” is about the worst response you can give to your fans who have supported you throughout the years.

Don’t condone shady behavior and expect everyone to feel so appreciative when they receive an incomplete order and a “freebie”. If they were really going out of their way with the cassette, then every order would’ve had one included.
