My box turned out great. I know there were a lot of issues with the 2012 initial run but most of the reviews for the 2016 version (at least the ones I read) that was recut by KPG and pressed at RTI seemed to fix a lot of those QC issues. The biggest debates I saw were more about Mono vs. Stereo. It’s probably not worthwhile at the current asking price any more but 5 LPs for $100 was well worth it at the time.
by the time i knew that existed, it was long sold out and pretty impossible to findYou know there is a Sundazed MGM/Verve Mono Box available cut by Boom Boom and pressed at RTI where you can fill that a big portion (4 VU LPs + a Nico LP) of that hole for a very reasonable price, right?…

The original pressing was beyond horrible, and the box was so cheap and flimsy that virtually none could survive shipping. Although Sundazed denied it, and never took responsibility, a couple of years later they had KPG redo the lacquers and quietly repressed it at RTI, and put it in a better box with a new cover. That version is well worth getting, but avoid the earlier like the plague.by the time i knew that existed, it was long sold out and pretty impossible to find
Thanks! I'll try to look for just the KG version. Otherwise I'll wait for the half speed reviews to come in and hope for the best.
