Vinyl Me Please (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

I was quite bored today on a flight and figured I’d try to figure out the implied value of the anthology test press mystery grabs. I made three buckets of prices and made rough guesses about what the pressings would be worth after seller fees ($20 avg, $40 avg, $100 avg). My average value per grab was $41.

This is totally worthless and subjective, but there you go!

Much like VMP customer service....
 
I am no longer a member but waiting on that Black Sabbath repress I pre-ordered for July24. I got the email today that the March swap window is opening today. Out of curiosity should I send a message to CS or are the February shipments still being sent out? I'm out of the loop on the current time frame of how things are going.

-CS is AI, response times and helpfulness vary by user;
-The February ROTM hasn't shipped yet according to some reports. Unknown when they will ship;
-Some people are receiving MoR this week, some are still waiting. Fingers crossed your time will come.

FWIW, all CS isn't AI. AI is poorly used for the simple stuff--cancelling orders, etc. I often get a person but it's about a 50/50 shot that they are actually helpful hah.

Feb fulfilment starting this week supposedly.

MoR started shipping for people this past week or so. Doesn't hurt to reach out to them @Haimez40 but hopefully it ships soon for you.

Congrats, any early reviews on listening to it? Any warping or issues?

Been busy with school/work so haven't had a chance to listen to it yet. Visually it looks pretty much the same as the original ROTM pressing, but the runouts do have some extra numbers included so that'll probably be the easiest way to distinguish between the OG and the repress. Also there's a barcode sticker on the outer sleeve now (???)

13 are "now shipping" (or soon-ish), 18 are "delayed" (13 from 2024 and 5 from 2025) and 15 are "on time" (4/15 date back to 2024 and 1/15 is from January 2025), so category is bit mislabeled perhaps. 46 titles in play in total.
I'll defer to a statistician to analyze those results.

it seems they are catching up a bit from last update...so there's that i guess?
 
Daily reminder: a deal that sounds too good often is.

Facebook reel popped up on my feed showing this.

Looks semi genuine by using proper assets but stuff that has been out in forever show for cheap and in decent quantities

Obvious scam is obvious but given recent events around VMP some people eager for a deal might jump in with both boots.

this has been posted a bunch of places as a warning not to buy from them. i think VMP is trying to get the site taken down...but they warned people on the discord about it being fake.
 
I'll say this I am glad I am done with VMP. Two of the last few records I got through the club I had to get replacements on for skipping and even the replacements skip. What a shitshow that company is. Not just a skip here or there, I mean skipping all over on both sides. Ronnie Milsap and Ramones.
