So I received yesterday my copy of 40 ounces to freedom which I’ve been waiting for for eight months and after listening through it, it seems like bad fish is completely messed up. Unlistenable skips through the entire song all other songs play great I’ve contacted customer support. Hopefully they get back to me. Has anybody else had the same problem?
I’m hoping for the best, but I am burning off my credit just in case.
Loyal VMP member since ‘15. Decided not to renew since the upcoming releases don’t really appeal to me and swaps have been coming in a bit lackluster the past few months. Seems I got a sweet parting gift with a buy one get two free on Gus Cannon.
Has anyone received their Blue Note box set? I ordered it what seems like over a year ago and have heard nothing.
Hello and welcome to r/VinylMePlease weekly discussion and recommendation thread!
Looking for some ideas to swap into or pick up from the store? Rediscovered a previous album and gave it a spin? Talk about it here! This weekly thread is intended to help facilitate discussion specifically about the various records from VMP.
Picked up a copy during the Black Friday sale and just received today. Unfortunately it's pretty warped, I imagine this was in storage for a long time. Anyone else pick up a copy recently?
Finally got frames for these awesome posters.
Wondering if anyone has received or got a shipping notification for the Freeway ROTM? I am waiting on a ton of records and when I inquired about the status they said that it’s because the ROTM is holding up shipping because of a ‘technical issue’, but wouldn’t say what it was when I asked.
I’m feeling a little frustrated and just trying to suss out if I’m being played a bit or if there really is a bigger issue with the record.
Thought I’d get the rerelease of the impulse collection using my $300 store credit. But no, vmp adds $95 shipping to Australia for this box set. Individual records will ship free just like always, but not this! Membership is still active.
I ordered this back in February and still haven't received it.
Here’s how the smoke vinyl looks. Still wish I got the brown marble but I’m listening to it now and it sounds nice, so whatever.
Who ordered this on VMP has received a replacement ?. Just got one side but idk what was wrong with it since I didn't send any issue replacement with it.
This was in the special section in today’s NY Times. Price still shocks me.
I have six records to be delivered. Getting a little antsy….
Have people’s records started shipping. Anyone received them?
I have every single classics record by VMP up until this one. It was good while it lasted but as an international customer it became unaffordable for me, and apparently now international shipping is not even available anymore.
I look back at my VMP days with a lot of fondness, it peaked during Covid times. I miss the excitement of receiving VMP packages, quality products albeit at premium prices (eventually too premium!) but I’m grateful for all the music they’ve made me discover and all the hours of great tunes I’ve gotten out of it! Hope VMP can capture its older magic again, they had a special run

Like the title says...
Basically, I'm looking for some kind of sign that VMP isn't just killing time before their demise. If they have some ROTMs planned, that would at least mean they're trying to retool and regroup... plus, *maybe* there might be something nice to look forward to instead of a freakin' banjo album!
Yeah I'm done waiting for my master of reality pre-order and want my money back before the company goes tits up. Anyone with any experience doing this help me out?
When I ordered this vinyl it was a dark marble brown color. Today they shipped my order and had this mock photo attached. So, I’m wondering which I’ll be getting? I’d understand if it looked slightly different, but this looks completely different from what I ordered.
I made my order on Voodoo months back in June, an international order that occurred before the whole membership mishap (I'm not a member though). I checked the production calendar which has now updated Voodoo to be now shipping since last week (November 12) but I never got an email to confirm my order being dispatched.
So I'm wondering if anybody has been notified about their copy being dispatched yet...
As a non club member I placed an order on November 1st for two in stock records and it’s still sitting at “ships once all items are in stock”. Is 10+ business days the usual for in stock items? I would have just bought on discogs or somewhere else third party if I knew it would take a whole calendar month to ship regular orders that aren’t part of the subscription service.
I didn’t see anyone mention this being outraged back again. No update email from VMP either.

What are folks picking up in the Black Friday sale? I’m working on my cart right now trying to find the right mix to hit the $125 threshold. T. Rex and Little Touch of Schmilsson are locked in. Debating on Visions, Taker/Tulsa, None Shall Pass, Major Arcana and Unapologetic Art Rap.
