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

Just got my shipment notification yesterday too. Way earlier than last month. I remember when the 10th used to be the deadline, now I consider myself top of the stack if I get one by then...

Did you go for the Strokes? I'm actually really looking forward to it. Possibly most excited I've been about a VMP release since Spiritualized.

I didn't even realise they had an editorial department. It seemed to me that they'd just put any old shit out with little attempt to even proof read it first, let alone edit it.

I suspect the Dunning-Kreuger is strong with the former "editorial department invented from proof of concept"
 
I just got confirmation for a replacement order for my damaged disc so hopefully they have enough to fulfill any problems for those just getting the record for the first time,

It just arrived, and does have a minor corner ding from shipping (it was packed loosely, ugh). A bummer, to be sure, but I will probably just let it ride unless the vinyl has obvious flaws. Will give it a spin tonight.

Yeah my disc had distortion every rotation all of side 1. Super weird. I couldn’t see any obvious scuffing or flaws either. Side 2 was perfect. Wet cleaning did nothing so not sure what happened there. Hopefully mine was just a fluke.

Sure did. Not a huge indie Rock guy but I definitely like a good amount of bands from that early 2000s period. I have all the White Stripes albums but only 'Is This It' from The Strokes so pretty excited to revisit this one
 
I don’t even know why I bother. I stopped my VMP subscription when they jacked the price up but I really wanted that Sparklehorse set so I gave it another go, it arrived today... with a seam split on every motherfucking jacket in the box set. Some of them were even split across the text on the spine.

There whole operation model consists of mailing records to their consumers, they have been in business for years and they still have not figured out an effective way to accomplish this task.

Bullshit.

Guess you're getting another box set!

Someone posted on the VMP Reddit yesterday that one of their Sparklehorse records was warped and CS claimed they could only offer a credit but no replacement because they didn't have individual albums available. I guess with all of your albums having a seam split, you have a chance here :LOL:

If they replace the whole thing I'll give you a good price for the busted ass one.
