deadbluehawk Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I contacted them last week about vault #19. They said they were sorry for the delay and that they are on "R". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natenomm Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I contacted them last week about vault #19. They said they were sorry for the delay and that they are on "R". They're doing reverse alphabetical for shipping, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxweidler Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 i really dislike how the vault lp has the same features as the ultra, especially the hologram. I really don't see it working properly with the colored vinyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't see it working properly with the colored vinyl The idea is bigger than the vault, and they aren't going to make "normal" plates just for the handful of subscriptions they'll sell. And by handful I mean in comparison to the 40K (give or take) of the standard black editions they'll sell. If the ability to see the hologram is that big of a deal then it's easy to grab the standard release as well. I'm willing to bet plenty of people will be doing that. Not only for the extra features, but because the artwork is different as well. sergeantscruffy, psus2h and stl_ben 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, and as adverse as people are on here to reselling something, they wont have an issue selling the vault version if they are unhappy with how the hologram looks on the limited edition version. sergeantscruffy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bossdj26 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 I got #19 over last weekend and I'm an R (first). I emailed them last week just asking for a status and got the shipping confirmation the next day Not sure if it was a coincidence or not *Also, 3 out of 4 of mine are almost straight up clear...:/ box and sleeves are awesome though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natenomm Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Welp, I guess that means I should send Third Man an email. ratbrain 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreamover Posted May 16, 2014 Author Share Posted May 16, 2014 Welp, I guess that means I should send Third Man an email. i had to send them an email. for whatever reason i wasn't on the list even though i paid and my subscription was active. they manually sent one out the other day and i just got it.

natenomm Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 They ask customer not email till all packages have gone out. I get that, but for the average customer who isn't asking around on the internet for an update on where they are in the shipping process it's almost impossible to know when all of the packages have shipped. After a month and a half with no updates I think it's kosher to ask for an update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stl_ben Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 They post on their site and email out when they have all gone out. The more emails they get from people asking about shipping the longer it takes them to ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allenh Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Welp, I guess that means I should send Third Man an email. One of my early vaults ended up going via Nairobi. It was a bit of a panic as I was on holiday when it should have arrived and to add to the panic my postman thought he'd delivered it and left it outside the front door so I ended up buying another from ebay before the globetrotting original arrived. Luckily not an expensive one and I've kept the outer packaging as it has some cool stamps and notes on it concerning it's travels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiscodeman Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Okay, don't hate me, but I'm confused.. Did they start shipping Vault #20 out alphabetically or reverse-alphabetically by first name? I saw someone say that they are on 'R' and I'm a 'C' so maybe I'm not on the subscription list even though I should be. Should I send them an email (even though it's recommended I don't) or just wait it out for a bit longer? Sorry, I'm just really excited to get this haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamover Posted May 18, 2014 Author Share Posted May 18, 2014 Vault 20 won't ship until June or July. Though it'd be nice if they'd arrive in time for release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadItUpToHere Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 The shipping being discussed is for Vault 19. They're being extremely slow with this one, most people think it is due to RSD. I got mine like two months ago now or something lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
