PRINCE Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Hey guys, well since Jason decided to remove the Facebook and almost everything associated with the label except the webstore and shitty tumblr I thought we could create a place for us all to stay in the loop like he asked, I know many of you are still waiting on orders from about a year ago, I know I have about 3-4 orders I still have gotten nothing on, so feel free to discuss preorders, share info or just rant, just want to make sure we have a coalition in case this guy decides to just leave to the bahamas with all our money/boxsets/tapes/vinyl.. http://www.ormolycka.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyFrosted Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I don't know how everyone got into this mindset of 'Oh, it's just Ormolycka, sometimes it takes a while, even a year, but he always comes through' and have that be acceptable in any way. Any label that doesn't deliver product in a timely manner or doesn't communicate AFTER they've taken the money is a shit label. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nostalgicbummer Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 The releases on this label are excellent but yea other than that everything else about it kinda sucks. I placed an order in February for death grips and lil ugly mane tapes (before I knew of horror stories from other people) about a week later I ordered 2 Antwon tapes thinking "cool I'll just order them and send an email to combine shipping". emailed him asking to combine and to either see about a refund on the second orders shipping or to just throw in one of the free tapes that is advertised on the website (no idea which he's referring to but it says you just pay shipping). Never received any response. Got 2 different tracking numbers. opened my package and it was just the lum and death grips. The second tracking number just sat for 2 months and never moved. I ended up moving and tried emailing and posting to facebook trying to get my address updated, again no response but he commented to other people saying he had some one helping with emails and responding to them. Tracking number finally started moving a few days later (earlier this week) delivery confirmation but nothing in my mailbox. They were sent to my old place. Luckily I got my tapes but Yea the whole thing was a hassle. There's more stuff that I would still like to pick up but I'm on the fence about doing business with him again. I feel kinda bad for the people that ordered the lum vinyl boxset and the headache they are probably going through especially since their orders were waaaay more than the money I sent him. Super sketchy the facebook was deleted too. Order at your own risk folks Holy shit longest post ever haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRINCE Posted July 31, 2015 Author Share Posted July 31, 2015 Some good points dudes, I am one of the sad souls who PO'd the LUM boxset and I'm almost debating just filing a Paypal claim to get my $180 back, there's really been no progress at all other than the photo he posted of the MTI 1st presses that he price gouged the fuck out of for those 10 idiotic eBay preorders. I've said it here before but ill say it again, he really lost me when he promised people "bootleg" death grips tapes and never contacted a single person about them, he already knew he was in a hole with getting orders filled and just tried fattening his wallet that much more, I really feel bad for all the Amazing artists he's exploited Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvismcvegas Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I've been wondering when the LUM Boxset was going to happen. He did say june/july so maybe its only a month delayed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pizza face Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I haven't received an email back from him at all. Any of the emails I've sent to him since December never answered.Sent an email to that whereismyorder email when he launched it and still nothing.Waiting on the lum box and a separate order from December. I'm about to grab screen caps of the deleted Facebook, Tumblr post regarding it and whatever else needed just in case.. Would rather get the goods I purchased but wouldn't mind having another $260 in my pocket either...I mean I couldn't imagine this being an easy process for one dude...but this guy in here says he ordered this year in Feb and I'm over here waiting on shit from December. Some bullshit right there. If he can't fulfill my order then it would be nice to know..Trust I can do without a few tapes that are easily available on mp3 that I can dub to cassette myself if I really wanted to.

Yea man that's a bummerit looks like everyone that ordered around the time frame of the death grips boots Are still waiting on their orders. From the way he does business it makes it look like that promise was just a cash grab. I'm sure he got flooded with orders for doing it and it's overwhelming but fuck answer people's emails, work harder or don't commit to something you can't fullfill in a somewhat timely manner. you've had their money in your bank account forever now.

dkrtz Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I ordered exmilitary, two antwon tapes and a lum tape back in february.. still waiting for any word or sign of package. I can't imagine how it feels to wait on those lum boxsets; damn... I hope you all get your stuff in soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erikness Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I ordered four cassettes and the Mykki Blanco LP in January. Got all my tapes in May, I think. Still waiting on the Mykki Blanco. Pretty sure they don't even physically exist yet. I'm moving in November, so we'll see how much of a hassle that causes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cambionic Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I've ordered a few 7" and cassettes, but haven't heard back. What scares me even more is that I am moving in the next month or so - so it's likely I'll never receive my order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellowtooth Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I ordered two tapes last October and have heard absolutely nothing. he's completely ignored my unobtrusive, polite three emails since then. Fuck this cunt. He's a thief. He's not some buddy I'm trading beer with, he's running a business like a total careless asshole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoneyFrosted Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Same with Orchid Tapes. Orchid has never ever taken as long as Ormolycka. Even with the Katie Dey tapes, I got an email stating that they were sorry but they were going to be a little late. Then I received it. Infinitely better than Ormolycka.

dkrtz Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Go back and read the OT thread. But he's right. If you actually ordered frequently from both labels it'd be apparent there's no comparison when it comes to shipping and communication delay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyFrosted Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Go back and read the OT thread. I didn't say Orchid Tapes was perfect. The orders I've had with them haven't been significantly delayed to the point of frustration, so maybe I'm one of the lucky ones, but I've read the horror stories. It's still not even close to Ormolycka. It's been ten months with no items and no communication from Ormolycka for me. This isn't about which label is worse. This is about Ormolycka taking people's money and delivering nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloudsbelow Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 ordered a few tapes in January, arrived a few days before my paypal dispute window would have elapsed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellowtooth Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 ordered a few tapes in January, arrived a few days before my paypal dispute window would have elapsed. Shit, I didn't even think of that. So I'm definitely out of luck having ordered in October? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloudsbelow Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Shit, I didn't even think of that. So I'm definitely out of luck having ordered in October? yes, yes you are. Knowing his reputation I put an alert in my phone for a few days before my dispute window would close.. he slid in just in time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvismcvegas Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 I was content to just wait a while longer for the box-set but after reading this thread it seems like its never going to show up. Fuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRINCE Posted August 4, 2015 Author Share Posted August 4, 2015 Meh, I think we eventually will get the boxes but it would be cool if we could get like an email blast update thing, he did post what I'm guessing is the back of the boxset, which makes me think it's comin??

pizza face Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 I'm hoping that my other order comes in with the boxset (if & when)...but I doubt it because he said he's hiring people to ship out the box sets as soon as they come in...so...my guess is no. le sigh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Multiverse Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 I keep offering to go help him out in the city and he'll usually just like the comment and never gets back to meIunno, it took months for me to get my MTI repress after picking it up from him off of eBay and the packaging wasn't great, especially considering the several month wait but at the end of the day I'm thankful to have actually received itI think the only exception i'd make in regards to ordering from him again would be a new LUM album or something but I'd do it begrudgingly--it's a lot of $$ for little to no guaranteeI hope all of you dudes get your orders, especially if you shelled out for the boxset Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
