| How does that compare to going away for 2 weeks with work and dreaming of playing my records, and the first thing I do as I walk through the door is flick on the decks and mixer, pull out my favorite Sven Väth vinyl I had imported from Germany and my flatmate left it on the amp so the heat melted the record and it warped, along with 7 others. |

yeah it sucks coz you look forward to having a mix with new vinyls and when they arrive they're warped, all you can watch is your needle jumping up and down :(. but then again happens i guess, waste of vinyls.
Vinylwarning are cool about it, so just gonna return them and wait another week. |

| i never heard of that one before, i just put the vinyls between to sheets of thick metal and add alot of weight on top, if that aint work then theyre definatley fcuked. |

Use the search because I reckon this has popped up a couple of times in the DJ Booth. Don't quote me on this but I seem to remember these topics recommending hairdryers to heat the vinyl and then flattening with some books/glass etc...........
I've never tried this though, only had one that may have had problems with warping cos it sat in a postman's delivery truck all day at 40 degrees, it was hot to touch when I got it so I immediately chucked a book on top, probably the flattest vinyl I've got now! |

| or try and force your doodle into the holes of the vinyl and when its in, spin the record furiously. make sure its clockwise or else it wont work. |
