Did anyone get Grace yet? I swapped for it. Got my Caroline Rose and blackalicious but no sign of Jeff Buckley and no mention of it. 😒

That's one that oversold for sure, I'd jump on the VMP site and use the chat feature to see what's up, it was much faster than emailing CS

Did the same thing but got this...

So we figured out that we oversold that Irma Thomas release by about 10 copies, and are currently in the process of letting affected folks know. Regrettably, it looks like your copy was one of those 10. I'm so sorry about that!

0-2 on exclusive swaps for me. Oh well. Priorities, right?

Insanity.

While I only got the $40 credit for the Grace issue, I got a refund and $40 credit for Irma. Sad I missed out on a record I would have enjoyed, but at least I came out on the positive side on the cash side of things. Hoping things go smoother this month for swaps...

Yeah I wasnt going to say no. Will probably just put it over towards membership credits to pay for swaps. Havent jumped at many Pre-Orders lately.
 
An interesting thought here is what the state of the USPS will be when shipping time comes for the April ROTMs. Amazon is already halting music and media wholesale orders beyond what they have in stock, USPS employees are saying they are already seeing stresses and will eventually prioritize mail over packages like Amazon (god forbid any post office gets closed).

I know Criterion is doing a 30% off sale right now and I thought about just paying extra now for what will be 20% cheaper in July because who knows what the state of things will look like then.

I’m already seeing it on my side. I had multiple media mail packages that reached Jersey City Distro Center Friday or Saturday. That usually means I’m getting it the next business day but I’m still waiting on everything (including my March ROTMs).
 
Damn, they changed it up from when I checked earlier. I would've grabbed Jolene and now it's sold out. :|

I wonder if the "swaption only" experiment was deemed a failure after they messed up and oversold stuff so they just dumped future swaption only picks in the sale section. Jolene would've been a great swaption only choice.
 
Well the arse fell out of the Australian dollar so I might have cancel VMP unless it improves.

My 3 months renewed this month when the exchange rate was better but I guess I’ll be limiting my sub choices to 1 out of the 3 tracks over the next 2 months with no add ons.

Fucking Math.

That was my thought as well . I was really glad to grab that Mavis on discount .Its really really good and that title track is more relevant then ever right now.

I thought Amazon was only halting third party media sellers to prioritize their own shelf space for more essential goods? Maybe I’m wrong but I’ve read a lot of different reports about that...I don’t doubt that things will slow down at least.
