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

Got a generic email saying some records are shipping ahead of schedule. I followed up asking which ones specifically and was told it was for the VMP-100 releases and should expect a shipping notification in the next 24 hours.

I ordered Queen and Saba, which were both slated for mid-May. So yay. 🥳
I had the same, quite mysterious as to which record it could be!
 
Completely random but welcome extra shipment notifications today about Leon Spencer and Al Green. Wonder why Outkast also didn't ship since it's listed as in stock.
 
Four out of the five records I received were almost as bad. I live in Tennessee. It hasn’t been above 60 the last three days. When this package arrived, the high was 52. Something major went wrong with this. I struggle with how much warp/wobble is appropriate, so it’s hard to say how many “good” albums I’ve sent back for peace of mind. This however, way too much and probably sounds awful. I wasn’t putting my needle down on it.

Yeah, I mean, I ain't know @Mather but I've had several warps recently of which I've asked for replacements and yours looks just as bad as any of mine.
 
I told them in the email that store credit would not suffice this time around.
Good. Just insist if they push back. That warp is awful, they will relent and send a replacement if you insist.

Side note, well it looks like grabbing a Kala off the PIF thread shouldn't be too hard... this might be the most screwed up pressing in terms of numbers that I've seen in a while...
 


Maybe I’m too picky, as someone said this wasn’t bad at all, but here is my copy of Arular.


That's terrible. If they don't replace that, I'd be pissed. Maybe link that video up on the VMP Reddit page to get people all stirred up. Paully from Customer Service will likely feel obligated to step in and solve this for you.
