I think it's probably easier for everyone if it's posted here but under the spoiler tag. If you aren't familiar with how that works, you can just modify the text in the attached image below.Ditto

Yeah I dont know if USPS itself really works that way once it gets to the facility. That would more be something VMP has to do themselves from their own warehouse (I could be wrong).
I know JC facility is a huge one and they get backed up easily when large quantities come through. Usually its just during December but lately I've had alot of packages delayed a day or two there when it used to mean I was getting it the next day.
Mine left NJ yesterday. I'd guess I could get it tomorrow, Monday more likely. I'm in Philly so it's not a long trip! No estimated arrival though.
Just got mine in. This box is a heavy, beautifully thing and was well packed. I like how they packages the “episodes” as well. Much better implementation than last time
Got mine yesterday. Haven't had a chance to do a deep dive yet but, initial impressions are very, very favorable. Absolutely beautiful. I couldn't wait to open all the "episodes." Just wanted to make sure everything was there and no record, print mix-ups. Waiting on a new needle for my turntable to arrive in the mail so, I can't wait to start spinning these and see how they did with the most important part, the music. In terms of packaging and design, a monumental improvement over the BN box. Will have to see if anyone else reports on mistakes, etc. All positive for me at this point, though.
Mine arrived today. I'm debating over whether I should open everything.
ugh mine left the same facility at the same time, been "in transit" for 5 days now, and still NO estimated delivery date - I'm in SC, so not that far from point of departure in USPS terms.
Never had this issue (lack of updates and estimates) on a VMP delivery in 4+ years. So odd. Hoping for delivery today - working from home!
I'm in lower NY so Jersey City is only about an hour from me. Even still I didnt have an "estimated" delivery date until it arrived at my local post office. First time I can remember that happening.

Just couldn't resist and unsealed all albums. Have a holiday coming and will start listening in about 32 hours or so.
without spoiling, exciting choices?
Yes. (This is as much as I can say without spoiling it.)
I'm teetering on which route I want to take. I liked knowing them all last time and dread waiting to open something damaged later that should be replaced asap, but since its a weekly cadence now, the slow reveal is finally appealing.

So much excess non recyclable packaging.
The box looks really nice! Love the design on it.View attachment 19122

My only disappointment is, the images are kind of low quality.... they actually don't look great at all.
I did notice that two of my three QRP inner sleeves were pretty mangled/smashed from being shoved into the sleeve. I hope that didn't cause any audible scratching. I just replaced them with some Mofis, no huge deal, but annoying.
These will probably be the big oofsEpisode 1 is unwrapped (three records) and totally visible. If you want to be totally surprised, don't open the box at all!
