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

I've got shipment notifications for Galt McDermot, Leon Ware, the 2 Chet Bakers, Cash & the replacement sleeve. A few long standing pre-orders on the way.

Oh shit Galt is shipping?! I would have an epic box arriving if they end up getting that out with my rotms as well.

I also think this is the case. Have we had any delayed that don't have Cash coming?

If they oversold Cash, I don't think it'd be a one-week delay. Nat Turner Rebellion took about two months to get a restock after it oversold, IIRC.

Now if they picked up a lot of brand new subscribers through Cash, I could see the warehouse falling behind due to the influx of new orders (and it may even be something as simple as running out of shipping boxes like someone else suggested). Almost like another Christmas season where they always need an extra week (or three).

I'm not expecting Cash, didn't add it in time; still waiting on shipping

My guess is that if they oversold (and given that I haven't ever seen a more incompetent IT group than VMP's, there's every chance), it will just cut into the amount they're supposed to hold back for replacements. Over the next month, as people find warps (look who I'm responding to :LOL: ) and scratches, that's when customers will get screwed.

I thought the Grateful Dead anthology was going to do it but not so. Hell that didn't even kill off Anthology Me Please. They are like zombies, head shots only will do it.

We just need a particularly heinous fuck up to turn @NathanRicaud, lose him and they’re clearly dead 😂

I’m not sure how they’d do that though? Maybe slowly send him The National’s discography monthly in the sleeves of “sexy” albums and then ghost his tickets...

I will be a VMP member forever because I love them so much! I am absolutely loving their ROTM selections as of lately and you know how much I love VMP as a company! ♥️🙈😍🙏

Even though I can’t really afford much vinyl at the moment, I’m looking extremely forward to the 5th track VMP create in the future and I still look very much forward to their drops every Wednesday! 😇

I wonder which fuck up will finally see them run out of hype?

Weird I don't go into threads where you talk about what you're buying to criticize and insult. I could care less when I get the albums as long as I get them. CS still takes care of any issues better than most sites I buy from. If I thought they were too expensive or out of my budget I'd pass. I don't understand the mental energy spent constantly on this.
 
Does anyone know when the ROTM announcement date is for the upcoming three ROTM’s in each track!? 👀

I’m so freaking excited for the reveal! Can’t wait to see what gets picked in the Essentials, Classics and Rap & Hip-Hop tracks! 😍

I dunno. I kinda do care when I get albums if I've paid for them. In fact I'd say my preference is absolutely to receive them in a timeframe that makes me think they actually exist in the real world and aren't some undeliverable concept that some one has dreamt up over a session on crystal meth and blue cheese (I'm looking at you three hundred pound Herbie Boxset).
 
So.. I asked for more specific info about the delays, and this is what I got:

Thanks for reaching out! Specifically, our warehouse was late in receiving stock of a few titles this month which caused delays across the board for our March ROTM shipments. This delay affects your March ROTM shipment alongside any titles queued to ship with that shipment, but you should see a shipping confirmation for those titles within the next few days here. Don't hesitate to reach out if there's anything at all we can help with moving forward.

I got the same. I wish they said that in the first place. I completely understand weather was garbage and could have delayed packages at the beginning of the month and pushed shipping timeline back a few days. But the message was too vagure, and honestly that should have been known 2 weeks ago, not on the 15th when shipping timelines were supposed to be wrapping up.

The communication between VMP and their warehouse is still pretty bad.

fixed that for you...it's always crazy to me that they tend not to have updates on stuff I ordered until a few days before the original release date. i sometimes just get no updates at all until I email to check in and ask where something is.

I emailed last week and they thought it would be done by around this time. It's why I think it's distinct possibility that they didn't even learn that the warehouse so was so behind until late last week. Still unacceptable but not necessarily withholding information...

I don't think they are necessarily withholding but it's bad communication all around which has always been an issue with VMP.
