It they were a real corporation they would now have the pendulum swing all they back and pretend it was a new and creative idea that no one had ever thought of before…

An “In House” VMP Forum where club members and staff can discuss the latest ROTM and Exclusive album drops.

Perhaps they could dedicate a whole thread to guessing the next months ROTM!?

Wouldn’t that be both innovative and exciting!!

That was kind of a self-inflicted wound though due to the crappy business they became and their legion of stans that thought they could do no wrong while the ship was already taking on water.

I’m talking a bit more about all the personal attacks on Storf and other employees which is why him and Pauly left Reddit largely. Like people telling Storf to kill himself…

The company definitely deserves a lot of flak for how they handled a lot of stuff. I get why the subreddit is the way it is now. I’ve left most of Reddit in general now

I feel like this is as good a time as any to mention this... IF they actually ship that new Blue note Anthology pressing I am still in desperate need of a damaged box and a fucked up copy of Lou Donaldson to complete the abomination that is my Frankensteined bLuERnOwTe BOrX. If any of you bought this and end up needing replacements for the actual box or that album due to damage or whatever, Lemme know
I will pay, I must finish my monstrosity.

I'll keep you in mind.

Anyone with a stax box to spare, i am on the hunt for that

I think Storf can be a bit of a knob, but that ain't okay in any way.

i 100% get why storf is the way he is about internet trolls and critics. he's a dude doing a job and people are making fat jokes and telling him to kill himself? nah, fuck that. he had a health issue and his mom is literally dying hundreds of miles away and every time he logs in to discord its "why do you guys suck, and you personally and in particular are at fault", i would also be of a "fuck you guys" inclination as well. that he hasn't told people exactly how to fuck themselves in detail and at length is a testament to his patience.

I'm also critical of how they've handled (or failed to handle) a lot of issues, but none that's even remotely ok

I am surprised if there are those who ordered Fela and the Dead and still haven't asked for refunds.
With 25 titles still outstanding, I am guessing there's a cash flow issue trying to get all of that pressed and in hand.

Personally, I think he does himself a disservice by not telling the people who personally attack him to go fuck themselves while offering suggestions of how.

Patience with the people who blame him for all of VMP's stupidity, sure; and I'd even say he's a better man than me for it. But fat jokes and people telling him to kill himself... those people are undeserving of patience.

I was told my refund was approved within a half hour of my request. But definitely, unless you got a sweetheart deal or used credit, riding with them is risky!

Good call. Their price increases and ongoing delivery delays (for monthly subs and the 2024 items on their tracking list) are leading to more cancellation talk in various online forums, discouraging sub renewals, and spooking potential new US subscribers. Just want to encourage anyone who has a lot of $ tied up to be careful.

Just to add PayPal buyer protection I think expires after 6 months and when you combine the long pre-orders times with additional delays some of these purchases might be pushing beyond those terms. Buyer protection on credit cards varies but it’s worth looking into if it’s been a while.

.yeah I just assume that my amex platinum will handle it if need be. But my hot take is that vmp will be fine/still around this time next year.

It’s a possibility.

I think they are closer to dying than turning things around and that there is a tipping point that they are either inching towards or might have already passed and once it gets beyond that point there is no putting the genie back into the bottle. With most businesses, when the end comes; it catches people off guard initially but then when they think back on it the warning signs were obvious and everywhere.

I understand hoping that they pull through but it’s fairly obvious that things are not good for VMP right now.
