Maybe a good thing? Gives them time to work out the cosmetic issues with the brass weight.
Yep.
Also, If anyone can, please shot a video while cleaning the brass weight (alchol possibly) so i can see that these marks are not over the coating (you can pm me as well).
I warned Vincent in the meantime, he saw the photos, he said he will look into it but for now he believes that if these are not superficial marks, it's a packing problem. If the issue is confirmed to be right, i'm starting to believe that these marks are from the bubblewrap getting impressed slightly in the coat and not under the coat, because they said to have checked manually each piece.
Also do not alarm, more people got the melody and they have it shiny and good.
