Finneas - EP with Signed Poster.... Newbury Comics

Did anyone else order The Finneas EP with additional poster from Newbury Comics?

Mine Just arrived - Terribly packed with no protection at all - In a thin Card mailer - the Mailer is Twice the Size of the 11" x 17" poster - so the Poster has Rattled around loosely with corner Dings and Lightly Creased - Amazed it didn't arrive totally Wrecked.... The Signature is very feint too - i'll post a pics later

Almost everything I've gotten from them is poorly packaged. They'll cram multiple cds in a mailer with no padding besides the mailer with signed inserts between the cds, no protection. Id say 90% of the cds have cracked cases but dont complain since I'm just buying them for the autograph anyway. Some autographs have been scuffed/bent due to the crappy packaging though. They could definitely step their game up some.

I got mine.. small crease in poster and graph is very faint.. emailed them and they had no extras to send... all they would offer is a refund... also said they didnt get any extras from the label.. vinyl came damaged as well.. they are sending me a new one of those...newbury are clueless on how to ship vinyl and posters properly....

Yes - The ones on e bay nearly look as feint as mine! You'd think they'd have given him a new sharpie to use....

The Only saving grace for once i didn't get stung with import tax and Royal mails ridiculous £8.00 Handling charge! Which is strange as i always get stung.....

That's Bad! Retailers normally hold a spare few back for cases like this!

One thing to note - sometimes with Sharpies, it has something to do with the pen pressure used. Jade Bird's Banquet signed LPs had what appeared to be a light signature in what I assumed was a case of a bad Sharpie. However when I met her months later, I noticed a similar result on my own vinyl, despite what seemed to be an otherwise fine Sharpie.
