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

So I’m completely fulfilled now with my outstanding orders except for Al Green which I cancelled since its likely oversold anyway. Paul gave me store credit for the corner crunches on TLC as well.

I didn’t get Ray Charles yet despite some receiving It but wasn’t stressing yet since it was originally due in January. Anyone else still waiting on it that received their other orders?

No Blossom Dearie yet for me. Not sure I’ll ever see that one though.
 
Still waiting on my December ROTM. Sitting in Melrose Park IL. I doubt it will make its escape to the Canadian Socialist Utopia until after New Years. Also the ass hats have put a declared value on it of $50 USD.

Yeah the asshats don’t have a clue. The four that I can see the declaration are all wrong. What’s the betting the fifth will be too?

Looking like it's a little bit tougher to get people back to their grandfathered prices than originally thought. From Pauly yesterday (replying to my reply to him from Dec. 3):

Hey there,​
​
Sorry for the late reply!​
I wasn't able to get far with getting you back on the old price, but I added more store credit because of this, and you should see that on your end.​
Does that clear things up for now? Let me know if you have any other questions, or if you need anything else. All the best!​

I've got $50 in VMP credit now instead of the $10 he was originally giving me to make up the $140 > $150/6-month sub difference. My sub renews in February, so I'll see what the Feb-Apr albums are to see if I keep at it.

Plus Aretha and BB King were on my front porch last night, so that bodes well.

So there is still a grandfathered pricing? I just resubscribed for $81 (plus tax apparently) for 3 months but I know that I was paying $75 at some point.
 
Had a response from Pauly (after messaging them on instagram to check my email) in regards to swapping the essential pick for the R&HH. This is something I have been doing for months now and im really not interested in Dirty Projectors but definitely want the N.E.R.D. I was checking the swaps before they even announced the ROTM through email or social media but it was 'SOLD OUT'.

Pauly said:

'So currently, we are sold out of that N.E.R.D. title, but we are still running a final count to make sure. So if copies open up, we will process your request and let you know that we did so. Otherwise, if there was another title that you would like instead, please let us know and we can process that now.

Sorry about all of this! Let us know if you have other questions in the meantime.'

By this statement they are basically saying they pressed the EXACT amount of copies for their subs, which I highly doubt, and had they told members that they were doing this I would have just added the R&HH sub and got them to shift it around and cancel once it was in my Essential. I told him in that case I really only want the Classics and will be cancelling all subs but this in the future. So I will see what happens. Annoying as I have not missed a R&HH since its beginning, and I saw N.E.R.D live last summer and loved it.

This is bullshit because a LOT of people swapped N.E.R.D. for something else, including myself.

If you have no luck there’s always the recent red vinyl repress for £12.99!

I wonder if that pressing is 45RPM though? 🤔

The VMP pressing definitely looks sexier, and it’s also 45RPM. If the 2019 Red pressing is also 45RPM, then it’s not much of a loss purchasing it, especially as it’s cheaper too! But if it’s 33RPM, then I’d definitely want the VMP exclusive!

I have the Seeing Sounds Marble Red exclusive, and the sound quality is pretty average on that one. So I wouldn’t be surprised if the Red exclusive for Fly and Die sounded average too.

I’m sure the VMP pressing for Fly and Die will sound amazing however!
