Yup, just got that too. Honestly, Im ok with the truly exclusive albums getting delayed due to production issues. That obviously will happen sometimes. Its when their exclusives which are really just color variants available elsewhere get delayed by a month or more and we could have just bought elsewhere that is the real problem.
 
Sigh. Just got the delay notice regarding 'Jinx' by Crumb. I already canceled my membership weeks ago, but this was my last remaining pre-order with VMP, placed before forum-gate. I was holding out hope they could just deliver one last time, without any associated drama. Too much to ask, clearly. And given that I am entirely uninterested in having the swirl of VMP and their issues impact me for another six or seven weeks (or even another day, really), I canceled the order. Now 100% clear of VMP (no, I have no regrets...and yes, it feels fucking great).
 
Shit that is annoying, If anyone is considering cancelling, I think you can still get Deluxe edition of Funky Rob Way from Analog Africa. It took them like 10 days to get my copy to mefrom Germany and it sounded great. If you order from their Bandcamp you get the digital files immediately and I emailed them and they were able to ship my whole order with the records outside the sleeve.
 
Meanwhile if anyone ordered the VMP Groove Box from Bespoke Post, check your junk mail because I just found this in mine:

Brian from Bespoke Post here. Hope you’re doing well!

I wanted to drop you a line because it looks like you recently signed up and are set to receive the Groove box. Excellent choice by the way — we love vinyl, too.

Here's the thing, Groove is actually coming back for June. We were testing out the box page when you found it (kudos to you), and it wasn't intended to be live just yet. Not to worry though, you're still gonna get the box, it just won't ship out right away. Keep an eye on your inbox in the next week or two for your tracking info.

In the meantime, I wanted to tell you a little bit about how things work here. Tomorrow is June 1st — the 1st is like a monthly holiday around these parts. We'll announce your June box selection in the morning via e-mail, and you'll have until the 5th to switch or opt out.

We've got a great lineup coming your way tomorrow, and we've picked out a box for you that we really think you'll like. Stay tuned, and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out.

Have a great weekend!
Brian

So they just billed me for the Groove box which technically wasn't supposed to be released and now they're going to bill me again for some shaving cream or shit like that I don't want which will probably be shipped and arrive before the one thing I signed up to them for will.

Does Bespoke Post and VMP have the same owners by any chance lmao fml
