If it helps, I got the 3LP in the mail last week, not sure what my receipt said

My Oldies order is still showing as Being Processed.
Also, the Vince Guaraldi Trio Black Orpheus is showing as the 2xCD on my receipt, when I was certain I ordered the 3xLP.

Has anyone gotten their Sound of Vinyl orders? I only ordered during the first single-LP batch but haven't heard anything.

I ordered two records on the 21st and got them on the 27th. I was (happily) surprised at how quickly they arrived.

ordered from the double album "just pay shipping" shipped out last week and delivered yesterday.

 

[bluespur]

Interesting, thanks @ranbalam and @Vinyl&Kicks86 . I ordered on the 13th! I'll shoot them an email.

Yeah, credit instead of a refund is pretty shady
Coupled with the fact they refused to cancel orders that hadn't shipped, I don't see myself dealing with them again either.
Can't remember if I did PayPal with them or not. Might have to have a look.
I still don't even know what's going on with my packages - but I think that's a Canada Post thing at this point, not an Oldies thing.

from what i have seen from them, they have shipped the records they are able to get and the others are on backorder for 30 more days before they refund. i believe you can just call them and cancel the backorder and get a refund if you don't wanna wait.

Oldies.com order just delivered. A lot got credited back. No email about it but new receipt with those zeroed out. So if you havent gotten Black Orpheus yet, I don't think you will. I was missing that, Margo Price, Punch Brothers, Hayes Carll, North MS All Stars and Okkervill River. So basically got the stuff I added to get to free shipping, ha. Oh well. $30 for 5 records still good, even if just for the PIF thread later.

i got black orpheus luckily, but missed 2 or 3 records from my order and they still gave me free shipping even though the total of what i actually got was about $50.

Day 4 with no sign of mail delivery to anybody in my building.
I officially have a service ticket in with Canada Post but who knows when, if at all, I'll hear back!

I've seen Postal trucks and carriers in neighbouring areas all week, so it's particularly disconcerting that we're not getting anything and have received no notice of such.

Your mailman is making an instant record collection! Hope they like sun ra!

GoVinylGo on Discogs has a bunch of titles on sale, many of which I've seen at Oldies (and some of which I haven't). Prices seem to be comparable, maybe a dollar or two more, plus $7 flat shipping unless you hit the $150 minimum, but you'll actually get what you ordered in a sensible amount of time

If they do they're SOL... there's no Sun Ra in  any of those boxes!

Only currently inbound Sun Ra left London yesterday, won't likely be here for two more weeks.

Just got a shipping notification email from SOV today.

Still radio silence on my two Oldies orders, though.

I wish people would take the Plaid Room or VSS approach. I didn’t even buy anything from the VSS sale but got an email letting me know they were running behind.

Yea. It’s just common sense at this point. The amount of people i see on various forums doing chargebacks on Oldies for their full orders when they didn’t get 1 album is kinda nuts. Especially without even trying to contact oldies.

I mean the half hour to an hour it would take (if you are doing everything right on the front end in email capture) would save you so much time and effort.
