    Vinyl Me Please Anthology

    Hold. I’m bullish on them delivering, and we have waited this long already. If potentially losing $260 is going to cause some stress or hardship, and you think VMP is going to go bankrupt and not deliver, then request a refund. It would be easier getting it now from VMP than a CC chargeback or...

    Do you have a bundle? Not that it would be a good excuse, but I’m curious if it was 1 title holding up your order shipping. Maybe they had trouble finding copies of Funkdafied.

    Great points. If you don’t think you’ll find 12 albums you want with the 36 annual ROTMs and various store drops, then it’s a clear no regardless of price. To the audiophile point, I guess that’s objective to a degree. VMP is audiophile enough for me to hear the difference between their AAA/ADA...

    Regarding the price increase, it’s still not terrible for 12 months. Of course you need to believe the company will exist in 12 months, but if you can find a referral buddy you can get your monthly per record pre-tax cost down to $31 (($529 - $160)/12). If you don’t want to count $80 of the...

    To your first point, they ended 15% of their business (international subs) that they were losing money on. The international subs were not profitable. It’s unfortunate that our international friends are being cut out, but I see why they had to make that call.

    If VMP were close to folding, why are they even trying to right the ship? Just declare bankruptcy and cash out whatever you can. I'm sure the Board is protected. They are either planning for the long haul, or they want to be sold to another company. In either case, it means VMP will still be...
