Vinyl Me Please Anthology

[MikeH]

WHAT AM I GOING TO DO WITH ALL THESE EXTRA JACKETS AND RECORDS!

Seriously. Any recommendations?

I plan on storing my Dexter Calling CD in the original sleeve!

I am honestly surprised

I guess they have decided to take all of this serious now, wonder if there will be a comment about the incorrect back sleeve on Donaldson

LIGHT UP DA PIFS.

You think the guy selling Anthology for $1,000 on discogs will include both copies of Schizophrenia?? Or will it be extra??

Jackets aren't near MM though or even AP.

They’re actually better than the AP ones I have but yeah nowhere near MM. That’s the gold standard to me.

Minus the Dexter Gordon one but I guess we will see what the new one looks like.

Pleasantly surprised they’re actually giving us a replacement. What are the chances it gets screwed up? And will this come with another sleeve too?

Watch them just slap a shipping label on the record itself and ship it Amazon Warehouse style...

*sigh*
My schizophrenia is mislabeled. Also judging from FB, this is pretty widespread.

You'll get a replacement copy. They just emailed everyone, regardless of if you have the mislabel or not.

They are asking for my Dexter back that has a scratch (sending me a label) so I wonder if they will do the same with shorter

I'm already getting into it with backwards big dick.

It would be nice if they just let us keep it but I can see how that would lead to a lot of flipping too. Probably depends how widespread it is. Is it unreasonable to ask 100+ people to mail back a record? I really have no idea. It’s kind of a hassle for some.

Hi friends. I'd just like to be first to congratulate you all on your recent acquisition of duplicate copies of various VMP Anthology albums for myriad reasons. I'm very happy that VMP appear to be trying to make this right. Now... For those of you with extra copies of the first four albums, or even those of you who got sent duplicates of the same albums within the span of a week because whoops shipping and numbers are hard... I'd just like to state that I would be more than willing to pay the shipping for you to unload said albums on me, myself, and I... up here all lonesome in Canada with currently no anthology albums to keep me warm.

Thank you.

P.S. Seriously, send me your tired Bluenotes, your poor CD albums, your huddled masses of mislabeled vinyl yearning to breathe free...

If I hadn't already promised my extras to my brother they'd be going straight to the PIF thread or @Mather

Uh, I just received set 2 again this morning. With the exact same tracking number as the one that was delivered on Monday. So I now possess 2 sets of Lou Donaldson and Wayne Shorter. Jeez. Email sent to VMP about it. I hope someone else isn't missing their set because of this.

Ahaha haha haha... what? I’m laughing to keep from crying.

 

[MattS]

@Dark Star Boogie Did you end up ordering Schizophrenia?

Yeah I saw that after I had posted. I hate VMP.

Meanwhile, my shipment has been “pending acceptance” since May 29th.

Ugh the comments on Facebook. People should care about this and demand the best possible product from VMP. Thankfully we are getting the new jacket for Dexter Gordon and a new record for Schizophrenia (eventually). Those who are commenting about brushing this off are insufferable. Like the comments almost seem fake with praise and scoffing at others who are (rightfully) complaining about the various issues. I hate Facebook.
