Probably an exclusive edition of an already existing Now Again, Mr Bongo, Tidal Waves Music record pressed at GZ on colored (altered marbled maroon poop) high quality warped vinyl remastered from an original tape (not the original tapes, AN original TAPE). $35, shipped in March, comes with a VMP Happy 2019 sticker.
I don’t love companies/businesses and you shouldn’t either. They will never love you back.So, does anyone here reading STILL love VMP, as of today?????? Anyone? 🗣
100%. The whole “we’re your best pal” shtick some companies do only puts me off from actually purchasing/using them. I do love the community that’s spawned as a result of VMP though.I don’t love companies/businesses and you shouldn’t either. They will never love you back.
I wish Hoss was the real boss. I want to find a photo of him and start a series of memes with Hoss giving good. Business practices, and VMP leadership saying "no! Bad dog."No wonder VMP is in the toilet, it’s being ran by an American bulldog named Hoss.
If I was in your shoes, I'd be demanding that $25 credit be refunded as real cash money. But that's just me.The amount of business 'insight' on this thread is overwhelming. Does anyone actually own a business here?
In other news: I got two shipping notices, one for Aretha one for Fiona. Neither has started the journey but the labels have been created.
I've also gotten a reply from CS about a problem with my November record. I swapped for Jackie Shane. It's a two album deal with one studio recording and one live. The record was sealed but only the live record was there. VMP is sold out so they credited 25 to my account. Did anyone else by that record? Did anyone else have the same problem?
I've also emailed Numero Group to see if they have an extra disc 1 they can sell me.
I got almost the exact same email, but I had an extra detail...What a load of crap

Come on, I'm not asking for replacements, I just want everything cancelled and refunded, should be a quick thing to do.
I had the money, and seriously considered it. What I didn't have was faith that VMP could actually execute on an entire box set.Who the hell has the money for the Woodstock box?
He'll probably re-post when he feels things have settled down. And I'll continue to down vote it until I have all records and/or refunds in hand.Seems like storfer deleted the latest store drop post on reddit. Hmmm....

Shits fucked indeed.I’ve been a member since 2014 and this might be the latest in the month I’ve gone without getting a shipping notification. Shits fucked.
They were great to me I asked to swap out one record after I placed the order and they sent me another box of 4. I hope they do another one soonThat's funny, but those dicks gave me zero referral credit

nah, it´s still there. you just have to search for it because it is downvoted so much.Did you see what the store drops were?
100% this. Stick to the company as a whole if you do need to vent about stuff.Specifically, attacking individuals over at VMP is off the table. Frankly attacking any individuals is not really acceptable, but just because they're not here doesn't mean you can single people out. Too many of the recent posts have waded into this territory, and frankly it's not OK.
I noticed that Storf was saying on Reddit that he was getting comments amounting to fat-shaming, or calling for him to be fired - both of these are just totally outrageous and disgusting things to attack anyone with.
God, if I worked there I'd have my resume polished up and be actively looking.
Yeah, but you're still on board a sinking ship. There's no way VMP is all that profitable or has a healthy balance sheet + cash flow, and a month or more of this clusterfuck they're going through is going to hurt big time. And the slim margins mixed with an unpredictable cash flow means big trouble at the next sight of any global or domestic economic downturn.
This isn't a company that can survive even a mild recession right now.
I'd hate to get stuck standing on that ship when the music stops.
There's a way to express your frustration with VMP/skepticism at how we're handling things without it being about me personally losing my job (a person with a family, dreams and as real as you), and this is not it, just for the record!
Yes, the bold would be outrageous and disgusting...if they actually happened. Which they didn't, at least not in public comments (I cannot speak to his PMs).
The whole "calling for him to be fired bit" started when I said the following in a comment to a reply made to him:
To this, he responded:
Now, nowhere did ANYONE say "I hope Storf gets fired" or "Storf should lose his job". What I DID say is that if I were in his shoes, I'd personally be looking at external opportunities. I'm not someone who likes to be the person asked to rearrange deck chairs on the Titanic.
But Storf has blown this up into some huge personal attack and is ADAMANT that people are calling for him to lose his job. It's ridiculous. It's a lie, full stop.
I'm all for what @Needles & Grooves said about making personal attacks on VMP employees. The problem is, that doesn't appear to be something that has actually happened in reality. Just a lie Storf has repeated endlessly over the past few days. I'm fairly active on reddit, and I have never seen anyone call Storf any of the things he has suggested, have not seen anyone make digs about his mother - as he has claimed, and certainly no one has called for him to be fired. He has been asked where these things have occurred, and has not responded. So unless this is all going down in PMs to him, he's making it up. Which, after ALL of the issues with the company he works for, is just another drop in the bucket of things that are frustrating about the VMP experience.
