instead of being flat it is wavy lookin and you can't play it, probably from exposing it to heat or something

oh like warping a pan (meaning moving a pan from heat to cold water too fast)

just make sure ur records are uh standing straight or no pressure is being put on it. and not under direct sun. and should be good.
dunno i buy my records online soooooo i can't really do anything about warped records.
i need a way to unwarp without two glass plates... somethin easy. haha

IMO or any other reputable website would gladly take back warped vinyl.
i haven't had any record warp on me ever.

not really simple when i have to buy overseas. that's why i don't think i can just return it and get a new one that easily. i got this new from japan. and... the world today ain't looking so great to be spending money like that. lol

if you ordered a record and it got warped in the mail, you can definitely get a replacement
