You probably sent 1 courteous email too. Having sent 3 in a week about something that has only been shipping for a week is probably a good reason to give bad customer service tbh haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jhulud 10,034 Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 Haven’t gotten any shipping notice from VMP. I ordered when they up for members & snuck in via that link that worked for non-members. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hmmm... When I contacted VMP about my damaged jacket, providing images and details, they responded with a $10 store coupon, saying they would not offer of a replacement.

CosmicHero 7 Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Same here with not having received Bolt Cutters from VMP yet. I haven't reached out yet, though. Was just giving it more time. vinyldavid 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My copy of Punisher showed up last week, really beat up, and they responded by offering a store credit but claim they will not replace items with cosmetic damage to the cover or sleeve. Guessing PayPal may think differently if a claim is filed through them, though. How did the Paypal dispute go? vinyldavid 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Seems like a company whose entire business model is centered around shipping vinyl to its customer shouldn't be having this problem. As I look through this thread, I'm seeing a lot of comments about people getting damaged orders from VMP. That's a bummer. vinyldavid 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fondfarewell 160 Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 FWIW, my copy from VMP showed up just fine, packaged like lots of other retailers package records. Does VMP just attract people who don’t buy a lot of records? There’s nothing better or worse about VMP shipping compared with most anyone else, as far as I can tell. If their shipments suffer from particularly bad seam splits, maybe the problem is someone throwing the boxes around at their local USPS distribution center. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oblivions 614 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 (edited) Mine is broken in half but I don’t collect vinyl for how it looks or plays. I collect vinyl to make a larger point about how everyone on this forum cares more about vinyl and sleeve condition than me and that they should be embarrassed by this.

wuhanclan 38 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 got my copy today. the sticker label on side A is severely off-center, luckily doesn’t affect play Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nyhi 251 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 This is what a little bird told me about pressing numbers. Take it with a grain of salt, I don’t think it’s a perfect science. 20,000 black 180 gram 6,500 indie pearl 4,000 purple VMP (though they’re openly saying they will repress) 1,000 gold B&N Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lethalenforcer 3,168 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 I don’t even own a vinyl playing machine. Why would I waste money on that when I have my old roommate’s Spotify login? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
unknown pleasures 1,578 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 (edited) The seam on the shrink of my copy was slightly off center; it starts slightly visible on the front of the jacket and by the time you get down to the bottom it's visible on the back. I won't settle for anything less than an even shrink seam along the edge. It's the perfection I expect - nay, demand - as a true collector of the art form we call vinyl records. PayPal here I come...

jhulud 10,034 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Well. Had to email VMP to get an update on my orders for Fetch and When the Pawn. Haven't received any shipping notice at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fowty Dollaz 2,206 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Y'all shoulda just ordered the pearl for less money. Instead of that fancy-ass-eggplant color. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BeardedSteven 16 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 I emailed them on 7/27 to ask where my Fetch (and White Stripes!) is and so far all I've gotten(after the initial we received your request) is a canned response reminding me to not email them again so they don't push me to the bottom of the list...
