I have 30-40 of them and have never gotten a bad one.
Speakers Corner QC?
We just finished opening and playing nine new Speakers Corner records.
- all nine came out of the sleeve covered with more dust than any record should see in its whole lifetime
- three or four were covered with loose vinyl shavings, one sliver is over 1" long
- three have chunks of unmelted vinyl(?) stuck to the grooves, two sound loudly and the third actually skips!
- one has a 4mm long scratch, very audible
The dealer is replacing the bad ones but it's a pain in the neck and I have to pay to mail them back. We've bought nearly a hundred Classic Records reissues and none of them had these problems. Is this normal for Speakers Corner?
