    As an owner of this label, seeing this really bums me out. You grabbed 3 of 78 extremely rare records, that other people badly wanted. You've had them for less than a month. You're now trying to flip them for "fair offers" because you have expenses (which happens, I get it) - but if you're serious about being fair, I'd encourage you to sell these to people for their original cost.  Dan and I could have sold these for $50+, maybe even $100+, and still sold out - but we didn't. We sold them for a price so cheap that we only broke even on the campaign. So for you to flip them just seems silly.
     
    And you commented here that you were willing to sell before you even received them. Which is just tacky.
     
    Obviously I have no control over this - they're your records, and you can do with them what you please.

    Combination of bands I love and bands Dan loves.  TREOS, Squid, Ghost Parade, and NGHBRS were my offerings, and Dan brought in the rest - obviously HBSB was a mutual thing, since our adoration of the band is well known. 
     
    Personally, I'd love to work with small bands and do small runs, use intheclouds to introduce the world to newer acts that fit with our sound.  Can honestly say I love every band Dan worked with before I came aboard, and every band since.

    I @replied you, meaning only people who follow both of us will receive it.  I can't DM you, since you don't follow me, and I blocked you on FB a long time ago - so yes, that's literally the most private way I can reach out to you.  Tried to be as polite as possible.

    I've said this multiple times - issue wasn't that they couldn't deliver orders.  The issue was they didn't even contact customers about it.  Everyone here knew about it because of this thread - meanwhile, I didn't find out my order wasn't being fulfilled until Jason Tate let me know about all the issues - I don't regularly visit VC, so I had no idea.
    I don't want freebies or anything from Oldies - I just would have expected the company at least let customers know about it.  Even their official statement was posted here, and nowhere else.
    And my career is in customer service (social media), and I have worked retail.  The situation was handled poorly.  Let's move on.

    We see the Athletics and HBSB re-press requests - I assume we'll make both happen in 2015.

    ...what did I not look into?  Here's the exact post:
    We recently posted about Oldies.com's vinyl clearance sale, but it appears most customers are only receiving partial orders, if anything at all. Customers received shipping confirmations with no notice of changed orders, receiving whatever pieces of their order the site could deliver on. It appears users are being refunded , or are in the process of being refunded, though many have not received any updates. Some customers seem pleased to receive their partial orders at the discount, while others have sworn never to purchase again - which side do you fall on?
