How are you able to do this with Outlaw that will only allow you to add 2? Also thank you for doing this!

When it was in the magazine link you were able to add it with a high number as with the others, before they removed the functionality in the page.

Oh I thought earlier someone said this could no longer be done shortly after Skull Session sold out. Like, VMP was alerted to the workaround and was quickly able to nip it in the bud.

I happened to have the window in the background still from adding Outlaw to it, so I can keyboard refresh on it and still check (currently at 101). As mentioned a couple of posts up by @Ethos99 it's cookie/browser based, so even if I accidentally close it I can ctrl+shift+n and get it back for now.

I mean they just need to close the loophole. People even claimed to have told CS about it. The other issue is that anyone can have an unlimited amount of memberships. If you are hellbent on flipping, you can have multiple memberships all using the same CC or PayPal info. We already see this with people like Vinceron and lots of people on ebay selling 50+ copies of Stooges.

I saw this as a non-member now--just close the loophole. Don't let non-members order store drop exclusives until 48 hours have passed or something.

Absolutely, however at the end of the day what do they care if they sell 300 in 10 minutes instead of 10 days?

That's why they take the listing down right away. Members can't be pissed if they never saw it for sale in the first place.

What I want to know is why the fuck CS (or maybe someone on social media) is responding to these people, who weren't able to give them any money, immediately and ignoring others like me who didn't get what they paid for.

This is pretty fucked. Do you get the “we’re working on it” canned emails every 10 days or so? I think you might wanna just pepper them with emails. Like 2 times a day. Type shit.

I was thinking, if ya wanna give me the email tied to the account and wording for what you wanna ask, I could try to send em an email and see if I can get them to respond, maybe a few others on here could do the same.

Yeah, I've gotten a couple of those and some weird blank replies to the other email asking about swaps, that was supposedly resolved.

Thanks. Let's see if by some fluke the Instagram dm I sent works by tomorrow first.

So how much time does CS takes to get back to you guys? I received three records from VMP today. First, Norah Jones AP: last song The Nearness of You doesn't play well, there are some kind of woosh on her voice. @Poly-Rythmo do you have the same issue? It happens when she sings a bit louder. Second, Fania Live at Yankee Stadium: both records are warped and will need to be replaced. Third, Rosetta Tharpe: slight warped but I'll spin the record to make sure it's playable.

Well, VMP at their best.

My disc was fine. But I had a seam split so asked for a refund. I've now sent 3 emails with a week in between and they haven't answered one yet...
 
It's really sad and bad that many of you don't get a response from VMP at all. I have no idea what happened to their CS. Also I'm sorry to hear many have issues with their ordered records, @Skalap for instance. That's so frustrating, hope they will sort it out.
Big thanks also from me to @Kyuuji for the amazing stock checks, so helpful. ❤️ I'm so sorry you already have had so much trouble with VMP just in that one month. I hope that when you receive your orders all will be nice and there won't be any damage on them.
Also I think it's unbelievable that apparently non-members can buy unlimited amounts of new exclusives, this should stop immediately, in my opinion. I'm sorry @NathanRicaud and others missed out on that exclusive. I'm also a bit sick of their FOMO practices. In the old days there were sheets and you did know what date which record would be dropped and that was an excellent thing as it allowed checking out records beforehand and planning financially. Now it's all about surprise drops to increase FOMO. I understand they want to sell records and make money, but still I think it's rather sad.

I had no update until yesterday neither and had the parcel in hands by the end of the day. I believe yours should arrive in the next days too. I am more concerned with my National membership gift... Last update was on May 2nd, @Selaws already received his parcel a couple of weeks ago and no signal of mine... I believe this Covid-19 situation is not helping, I have a few packages in the wild...

Did you get this without a shipping notification or did your page update from unfulfilled?

Still waiting for any sign of a delivery.

Are you still waiting for the April delievery? Or the recent one?
Living in Germany too, I had both shipping notifications for my April and May shipment and on my orders page it went to fulfilled. It seems there's a big inconsistency with VMP these days.

I've got no update on my National/Cherry Tree package since April 11th! I asked last week and they said just to wait. What with that and me thinking I'll have ended my 3 month sub from VMP without even getting any records (currently no shipping notifications even), I feel the vinyl gods in the US are not smiling on me...
 
Are there actually also many people on reddit complaining about not getting shipments and not even shipping notifications? I think that's horrible and it sounds as if many people could be affected. I'm usually not following them there, but really wonder how many may be affected.
