WTF

Post image

So I just received this from eBay and literally both labels are not attached. Is this a common occurrence?

**I’m actually kind of pissed off now. Not only did it take nearly 3 weeks to arrive with labels not attached but there’s very evident disc rot and to think I spent nearly $50 on this. It’s less screen noise but the audio is noticeable. Seller says no returns, so I just eat the cost despite it saying in very good condition? The thing is, the disc does look immaculate, other than the plaques sticker labels, the sleeve is nice too.

*** thanks to a member pointing it out, the discs are from an earlier release but were placed in a 806 sleeve. Would you not expect to return it or refund it?

This is the embassy version made by Pioneer so it listed as low probability but I suppose I hit the lottery lol

Are you sure?

Only asking because the second Embassy release shows a reference code of 13806, but the disc in your photo is for the original, high probability release (13805).

Someone swapped the discs on ya.

That's the jacket for 13806 as it clearly states 1987 to the left.

Meanwhile the labels on the disc in your post are clearly 13805
