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

Replacement Yusef came today. There are some minor pops a couple of times on Side A, but nothing at all like my first copy, where the first 10 minutes or so was practically unlistenable. Side B sounds perfect.

This is the type of crap VMP keeps doing that infuriates me - yes, you absolutely deserved a clean pressing, but you've already received a second copy before I've received my first. Did it just go out-of-stock at the end of last week because they realized they might need more replacement copies? Are some people going to get screwed (and how many is enough to justify a re-press)? I now have to try to "rush" through listening to the albums that hopefully show up tomorrow.

Exactly. I asked about the Dolly Parton record and was told they were all gone. I guess that means 'all gone' except ones that are being held to cover replacements for messed up ones. I guess it's good that they plan for replacements but while playing the FOMO game they are asking for disaster and dissastified customers.

They need to hold on to a bunch as I've heard a lot are warped. I just got mine and oh boy is it warped! It's the worst dish warp I've ever scene. Video can be found here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/rofRvX9DLgqbpSjz9
I've reached out to see if I can get it replaced
 
Man, my original September package got lost. They sent me a second one and that seems to have also been lost. Both were sent with partial tracking. Now Paul tells me my records from September are OOS and they'll have to refund me.
October box isn't here yet, but it has full tracking and seems to be moving along with no issues.
 
Was just about to snag the Merge store version, but this mock-up looks unreal. Tough choices...

I love Sprinter, but I was kind of disappointed with Three Futures.
I'll hold off until some tracks are out.
