    The other comments aren’t lying or exaggerating, the packaging really does suck.

      The packaging is such a pain in the ass. Great record though.

        Mine just arrived and I echo all of the above sentiments: great pressing, bad packaging.

            I swore I would never buy another record in a PVC sleeve, but this is an exception. The gel is cool and all, but getting the record out safely sucked donkey balls.

              Once you get it out of the terrible packaging, it’s actually a great presssing. Great soundstage, bass, and grooves really well.

                Once you get the record out of the PVC sleeve do not put it back in. Put the disc in another sleeve to keep the record from getting worn/damaged over time from the harshness and chemicals of the PVC sleeve.

                  Love De La, and this is a great record and collector’s item, BUT… get the record out of the gel sleeve ASAP!

                  They definitely dropped the ball on this packaging. It looks cool with the gel, but bad execution. PVC leaks chemicals and ruins vinyl, look it up! Hopefully folks’ vinyl isn’t already ruined with temperature changes during shipping.

                    This has to be the worst designed record package ever. There’s a weird gel in the sleeve which gives a water effect I guess. Besides that the vinyl is literally stuck in the plastic sleeve. 10 minutes taken just to free the record which was stuck in the shite plastic sleeve. Horrible design horrible idea for a great record.

                      Anybody know how «limited» this is? Hate when it’s not declared.
