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

[avecigrec]

I’d pretty much made up my mind to resub. Risk aside someone has to keep this thread alive and I’m willing to take a potential financial hit to be that person. Even if that just entails me talking to me.

Someone else is going to have to carry the RHH torch though.

Wondered if I'd ever post this...

Ah, Junior Wells on standby. Thought that would last at least 1 month.

New swaptions just hit including Alicia Keys 3LP. Hop on it!

excited for this one. are you gonna get another alicia?!?

Thinking about it. I still need a decent right hand side

On a serious note I’m now thinking it may be worth having a spare set of records in case the unthinkable happens. So if I crack one there’ll always be a pristine box.

Figured why not. But I added a track, I still want the Ramones.

oh yea i didn't swap for it with an existing track, i added on the worse ramones one and swapped that. maybe i'll still get $15 credit hah

kept rocket to russia and junior wells which seems to also be sold out now.

Holy fuck! There is a guy on the discord that says he got kicked off of Rocket.

In theory, if you have 4,652 subs to a track and you have data showing a percentage of subs that substitute a different track (say 15% average) why wouldn't they be able to press enough copies to cover subscribers?
This kind of crap, after years of being in business, is what frustrates subscribers. It shouldn't be an experience like an overbooked airplane where the airline attempts to lure me out of my seat for the next flight plus 200 Sky Miles.

Thanks for this . Pulled back in for the Gospel Truth Swap, almost pulled the trigger for one on eBay the other week.

There at least two other people that say their swaps to Rocket to Russia were reset without their intervention.

And of course there are the cult people saying “it makes sense.” WTF.

 

[Nee Lewman]

People are also pissed that there are new things in swaps. It’s like meltdown central over there.

I pointed out that this isn’t exactly a new practice (I didn’t realize that a damn email had gone out)

apparently was on a gifted sub and got an email saying that he got swapped out so paying customers can get first crack at the title. wild.

But even if it is a gift sub, someone paid for it. Right? Fuck VMP logic hurts my brain

A gifted sub is a paying customer. (Unless it’s Nathan. lol)

yep makes no sense at all.

 

[Nee Lewman]

Makes me glad I switched my primary before swaps opened.

I got suckered in for the Comedy anthology originally. Went in a few days later and still had Jeezy. Went for one of the Dolly’s now wish I had waited for the Alicia Keys or the Gospel Truth set.
