That's a beautiful bathroom sink you have there, what's the blurry blob on top of it?  ;)

Just got word from Grace, that they will right the wrong  ;D
Seriously, the band makes the music. Tapers just point mics in the right direction and hit "record".

That's good to hear!  The last patcher I had complained about my AKGs, fluffed schoeps for about 15 minutes, stayed patched in, and farted on me all night long.

Um, in my room, one seam is a little off and I stare at it constantly. It's, like, destroying me.

so what did they do to it?

apparently the *did* nothing, maybe it got put in the finished pile instead of the to be fixed pile.
They said that they would pay for fedEx theere and back and of course *do* something to it this time

all's well that ends well I suppose  >:D

I would "suggest" that they pay for the orginal overnight shipping also, since you were garunteed delivery of a service on a specific date and didn't get it. 

They will, I talked to Grace himself  8)

their handling of the situation doesn't surprise me.  Grace customer service has always been top-notch.  just too bad that you've got to send in your V3 again...

Great!  No matter if its taping equipment or whatever its really nice to know that we have some great, trustworty vendors that right any wrongs and put out quality products.  If this was some other product what kind of service have we all come to expect?  Usually shitty service.  Mike Grace is one of us and i'm glad he is going to right this situation and do it quick.

and on top of all this, frank sent me a female/female toslink cable  :'(

Do those even exist?  I've never seen one.  The link you provided to Cascade is a male>male toslink.

Very true...sure doesn't have a mini plug.  Just FYI, here's a link to an adapter.  I used to use one of these w/ my JB3 and liked that it was rt. angle and would swivel.
