It's unlimited because in the old days you could only swap a few times a year

Sure, but the word "unlimited" means "not limited or restricted at all," rather than "well I guess technically if you want to be a jerk about it, swaps are more limited than they've been for the past year or so, but in reality they are less limited than they used to be if you go back a few years ago and that's the part that we expect you to focus on even though we all know what we're saying isn't actually true."

You can only swap once per track now, and then you're locked into your selection, even if they added something new to swaps after you locked yours in, and that's only if the website doesn't crash or forget that you're a member when you're trying to swap, or if VMP oversold what you swapped for and changed it to something else for you a day later when they realized they didn't actually have enough copies of it in stock. You can totally e-mail them as many times as you want requesting a swap and maybe they'll reply, but they might not get to it before the swaps window closes, and the more times you e-mail them, the longer it will take them to respond. Also, they might tell you they're out of copies of the record you want, only to offer copies of that same record to other folks in future months.

Not yet! Not sure when it will ship, but I’m in no rush to receive it!

I did receive my Woodstock Box today though! 😃🕺🎉☺

Ok cool, I wasn't sure because the record is listed in the pre-orders section, but the shipping estimate is "3-5 business days" so I have no idea. On the other hand Labi Siffre is still listed as a pre-order and I got that back in December. 😶

And also congrats on scoring the Woodstock box set. lol remember when this thread was doing nothing but speculating how Anthology boxes would be in swaps this month? Kind of relieved that didn't end up being the case, given what a clusterfuck that turned out to be.

Oh just want everyone to know after a drunken email to CS I got ALL my swaps changed to what I wanted, and the best part is there is no chance of them getting changed.

This month I am now getting:

Classics- Removed Track

Rap Hip/Hop- Removed Track

Essentials- Scheduled Cancellation

Well, there is a solid chance that Stevie, SnP and Errol will show up at your doorstep anyway. 🤪
 
I could be mad at VMP for sending all my packages to the wrong zip code, but honestly mistakes happen , I'm more annoyed at the post office for sending them back . The zip code they had was one off and they're literally a 10 minute walk to my house instead they just said not my problem and sent them back to Colorado. No wonder Trump wants to shut them down lol.

That sucks, but if you had the right address on file and VMP sent it to the wrong one... it’s VMP’s fault, USPS is just the middleman, they cannot and will not deliver to non existent address. They can’t just assume they ‘meant’ a different zip code.

They actually just did so I know it's possible 2 of my records with the wrong address were forwarded to me and the other 5 were returned. It literally came with the 4 scribbled out in pen and a 5 written in. They can and will do it. It just depends on if you lucky enough to get someone that doesn't have the not my job mentality and toss it in a return pile. I mean yeah it's ultimately VMP's problem and I'm sure they'll make it right in the end. When they get the package back I'm sure they'll resend it to the right address. I mean what's the point of having a tracking number when if you see it going to the wrong address you can't call and have it correctly rerouted or at least hold it so I can walk over and get it.
