My TLC sold out out, fine it was an out of stock record and a lot of people were trying to get it at the same time. So obviously the site is going to be bogged down with so many people vying for the rare ones They could have said tough tits and take the album of the monthor the available swaps but instead they swapped to FKA Twigs. Now I don't know who that is, but a quick look on discogs shows that the price is similar .So they swapped it for another rare record. That album is not set in stone they offer you to email them something else you want to swap for, so I picked Pinata which has been out of stock for months and is something I have been trying to get. If I don't get that I'll request something else until I get something that I'm happy with. To me that is not something a Soulless corporation would do. That's thinking outside the box to make a customer satisfied.

Of course they still haven't acknowledged my ticket about not getting my April album.

Frustrating to see this and them speaking of "processing in the order we receive them" when I (and I'm sure others) didn't even receive that email and am still waiting for a response from emails sent both the night of, and the morning after, the swap issue.

I actually got it within a minute of emailing info@ about my open tickets. Not sure if that was a coincidence or not. I agree that order received is bullshit for new tickets instead of the old ones.

do you have a ticket number from your first time around?

Looking through my email I cant find any reference number or anything

No, just the blank "thanks for contacting VMP" emails, and I didn't even realize I was emailing info@. I was just responding to the reply I got last time they answered a ticket for me and didn't realize until after I sent that it always is "from" info@.

Also, here's an idea, why not just PUT EVERYTHING IN SWAPS THAT YOU CAN SWAP FOR!

ahem, sorry for the outburst.

Probably because a lot of those albums were in the members-only flash sale and in some cases, would've been cheaper to buy from the sale as opposed to swapping. The sale is about to end so they put them back in as swaptions.

I don't follow. People have swapped for off-menu swaps every month lately. This month people have already swapped for stuff that wasn't in swaps or a part of that sale.
