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

[Bsdmr2]

Not the best quarter ever indeed but I have at least one record I want per month. Then, if needed, I swap for credits awaiting for the discount code that will allow me to purchase that Impulse box.

Agreed, there are a couple of store items I wanted, and I quite fancy the Little Richard and probably the Stevie Ray Vaughan.

I've not ordered from VMP is absolutely ages, what's the deal with them shipping into the UK now?

Have not received a customs charge for any order over last few years. Sometimes I have 6 or 7 in a box. You should be ok

UK is fine. They don’t add the VAT in the basket and it’s customs lottery in Royal Mail but no one on here ever seems to get charged. For some unknown dumb reason they decided to add VAT in basket for EU customers.

Well that is a pain! It's not like VMP to do dumb things...

Agree I had a big VMP box arrived yesterday (8 records) and no custom charges

Picked up Bright Eyes for 7$. Not bad.

Seeing some of these $10 records in the VMP sale are giving me flashbacks to A$AP Ferg.

IYKYK

Anyone have an opinion on that Booker T/Mar-keys album?

Warehouse Sale​

Ends Monday! We have to make room for new items

There are pre-orders in the sale which presumably have not yet arrived in the warehouse lol

Most ridiculous part is that Baltimore and Nuff Said ARE in stock, but still listed as pre-order... maybe to avoid further discount? I dunno. But people have definitely already received their copies.

Nuff Said is what I have my eye on

It's alright. Tunes are funky, sound is about what you'd expect from a live album from that period. Think I'd rather have just tracked down a decent sounding copy of Green Onions instead.

It's perfectly "ok".

I guess if you're a completionist of either band it's a must have. It's my first album from either and just makes me want to pick up albums from both artists, rather than a live album of both.

It’s fun to see the albums they whiffed on (the $11 dollar albums). Most make sense, biggest surprise to me was Bright Eyes. It seems like a solid pick but obviously the overestimated how many they were gonna sell.

If you're not into 2000s indie folk rock I can't see this as an album that appeals to the masses. I personally love it, but 2000s indie rock is kinda my thing.

If looking for Christmas Album that Soulful Strings at that price is a steal. My copy sounds pretty amazing.

True, but Dirty Projectors is barely discounted and certainly Bright Eyes is bigger than them. I just assume that VMPs thinking was similar and printed a lot more Bright Eyes than Dirty Projectors.

I already had a copy that I was perfectly happy with so I passed on it, can't remember if VMP's version was supposed to be a noticeable improvement in sound quality

Probably really overestimated, and you can still get Bright Eyes for cheap ($28 CAD currently).

EDIT: I mean I can still get Dirty Projectors, but it's almost double the price.

6 dollars for 8 Crazy Nights? Let’s go baby

But seriously, Honky Tonk Heroes for $14 is a steal.
