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

Is "they" VMP or other Discord users?

 

[TenderLovingKiller®]

both? i think the only discord dude who hates this place is the guy who came in hot on the PIF thread and you said you'd sell him one of the PIFs haha

I have that effect on people.

i really don't think they care.

You don’t think Cam, Storfinhofner and the rest are all sitting there in some kind of Minority Report viewing room just waiting for someone from discord to leak that they’re churning out some more Nilsson so they can send Tom Cruise over to fuck some shit up?

Or you just don’t want to believe it?

Oh and so much fun is getting repressed

I probably shouldn't freak out, storf doesn't even see this forum and I'm mostly just more a paranoid thinker (I'm one of those safe conspiracy theorists)... I have leaked a few things on this forum before and never got in any trouble..

Like for example hip hop Q3 is definitely big doe rehab and probably too shorts blow the whistle and we're probably getting a def jam anthology.. but I more always think someone's watching me and is ready to shame me

If anything they're happy you share. They want to build hype

I had a question about that; wasn’t Jeffery s VMP exclusive limited to 2000 copies?

This is another example of them promising something and VMP changing the rules as they go along, no?

Have they addressed this? or is this a ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ caveat emptor type situation where it’s the consumer’s fault for trusting a corporations when there is money left on the table?

It would only really be a problem if….

It’s the same colorway and original run wasn’t numbered.

i haven't been following it a ton, but i believe they are doing an unnumbered pressing (different color too?) that will be pressed to order with a 10 day window. i personally don't care about it--always think it's better to have more people be able to have access to the albums on vinyl if they want it. the few times something like that has bothered me was in something like the case of Asthmatic Kitty doing a limited to 500, then immediately after selling out doing the same colorway as an open pre-order.

I feel like back in the day they claimed to be bit more stringent regarding represses of numbered exclusives. That being said, I never trusted their claims to begin with and really don’t care that much personally. Just like to point out moments of hypocrisy.

i also understand people being pissed at something like Dolly, where they were told being a subscriber (or possibly TBT) was the only way to get those albums, only to have VMP sell them in the store later and have them be included in 40% off sales to get rid of stock.

I never cared for the value and exclusivity on vinyl... I mostly buy because I like listening to music on vinyl and the more people can get it the better, but I get many people would be pissed about this


Also storf is planning on redoing the infamous.. maybe as a redemption thing, maybe as its own rotm


I know people will get angry

 

[Nee Lewman]

I’ve said it a million times, just change the color ways. Everyone is happy.

Unless your name is Black Pumas. Then everyone will hate you.

It makes sense but is also hypocritical just a reminder that this is a company selling a product and not a trustworthy buddy.

Redemption? I don’t know the story here.

Long story short
