It would be around noon eastern if you want to spend $50 on a single lp

They finally got me with DeJohnette. I picked up three in swaps, picked up the fourth using my $15 "sorry the Herbie box is taking forever" credit and was left dangling on the fifth.

Edit: so by my math adding it all up, it cost me $166 to get all five, or about $33.20 per record. Not GREAT but this is the sort of thing I tell myself when I try to sleep at night.

Exactly the same with me. I missed the DeJohnette and saved credit for it. Managed to get it now which im happy with, they are actually really great pressings.
 
Got Purdie Good to add to the DeJohnette I picked up in a swap a few months ago. I am hoping Axelrod or Spencer makes it to this month's swap, even though I know it is unlikely.

I pulled the trigger on the Leon Spencer. Wanted the Axelrod too but....money.

Please tell me I didn't make a mistake.

Spencer and Idris are my two favorites by far so I think you’ll be happy.

I *think* Axelrod never sold out to begin with. Or if it did, it was only in the last week or so. Dunno if it’ll ever make it to swaps again, but I think if one were to, it’d be Heavy Axe.

Did you ever sort this out? Every time (ok, twice) that I've tried to do this, I run into problems. I'm not sure if they keep changing it, or if I keep forgetting how it works. But it's almost like they don't want it to be straightforward.... weird?

Anyway, it looks like if you click "Proceed to Checkout" then click your credit card and hit "Use Different Payment Method" then you get the little slider option to apply store credit.

Yeah, making it hard to use credits is not a good look, even if it is unintentional (it's not).

I just replicated your issue but logged out and logged back in and the credit reappeared... in Safari but not in Firefox.

(PSA: Not actually buying this album) .

The Idris (Black Rhythm Revolution) is the best sounding of the bunch IMO. Spencer is great SQ as well. The Axelrod is really fun to listen to, I dig the random You're So Vain on that album, plus the 1st track is worth the price of admission (featuring Cannonball Adderley on sax). I would rank em: 1-Idris, 2-Spencer, 3-Axelrod, 4-Purdie, 5-DeJohnette.

I had a big VMP box arrive today and.......some of the worst warps I have ever had.

Embarrassingly bad to the point that I refuse to believe they even have quality control. If I could work out how to post a video here you would honestly laugh/cry at how bad they are. Heres a photo which doesn't quite capture the awfulness but comes close....

Looks like its both M.I.A's that suffered then. Arular arrived for me the other day and was the most warped record that I have had from VMP as well. Really awful quality control, I have no idea how either of these passed any kind of checks.

Hope VMP have enough replacements in stock for Arular for you! 🤞

You know what I really want VMP to release (probs too 'small' for an essential), M.I.A. ‎– Arular. That album slaps but even the UK pressings for sale on discogs all seem to be in Europe, I cant find an affordable copy here anywhere.

Yes they have sent a replacement thankfully, just waiting on it.

On a side note I dug out this post from August 2020 where I said I hoped for MIA to be picked one day. I actually suggested it back on the old forum as well. I rarely guess things like that so pretty chuffed that they did it after all this time :ROFLMAO:

I’m so happy VMP did M.I.A. exclusives!!! I love that you love Arular! I absolutely love your music taste! I love everything about it! Your music taste is as original and unique as the album Arular itself!!! 😍👌😆♥️

Adding one to the pile here mine is probably the second worst warp I've ever had (worst is still Still Woozy)... Hopefully they held back a lot of stock!
