Picked up a copy at Barnes & Noble today. Took it home, removed the first disc, held it up to light, noticed it was pristine. Put it on my player and sadly discovered that it skipped 4 times on "Edge of 17", not even a minute into the song.
Took it back to B&N and exchanged it for another copy. Brought it home, put it on the player,,,one skip during "Edge", two skips during "I Can't Wait" and two skips during "Sorcerer". That was enough for me. Took it right back and got a full refund.
What a shame. The clear vinyl looked really cool.
For those of you who were lucky to score an original first pressing back in 2007...HANG ONTO THEM!!! According to the experiences of many I've seen on here, other forums, and popular vinyl retail distributors, this limited run of clear pressed vinyl seems to be a big bust! Boo!!!
