    Vinyl Me Pauly (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

    Funny how you can't get an answer to a question, but you'll get 10 VMP email ads every couple of days. Buy some stuff. We can't guarantee you'll get it or anything else, really. But buy some stuff. Come on give us $$$. Our CS sucks balls, but we are really good at accepting your payment.

    Looks like VMP is on the ball in all aspects of their business. Look at this ad that just showed up for me! Except if you follow it, it's $224, not @24. I feel baited and switched. What a company!

    FWIW, I've gotten really quick responses when calling them out in the comments of one of their Instagram posts. Was almost immediate. Then just keep hammering them. Took a couple of days, but at least there was a solution in the end.

    FYI, after loudly complaining on IG and then mentioning again in an IG DM that I still had not heard from CS, my issues have been fixed. Replacement Stooges is slated to be shipped. I managed to fix my swap issues on my own yesterday after they mysteriously put more Roots in the swap bin...

    At this point in my 2nd relationship with VMP (going to be a very short 3 month mistake) I'm pretty much laughing at the thought of ordering ANYTHING from them. I wouldn't give them $$ for anything, but that's just me. I can't be through fast enough. Hell, I'd just pick a record and have them...

    Yeah, I was told at 8:35 am yesterday, on IG DM, that I'd be hearing directly from CS. Still waiting.

    You are awesome! Thanks for the heads up.

    So awesome that they teased that Phrenology swap yesterday. Then pulled it. Now it's on sale in the "sale" they are having. Poor form, VMP.

    Wow. I bought back in for the free month. I knew better. I really did, but free vinyl. Stooges arrived with big seam splits. Multiple emails, nothing but canned replies. Never did get a reply. Waiting for the drop today, because I had a feeling I'd want a swap. Sure enough, I did and there it...

    Same over here. I emailed about damaged Stooges and only got the automated response. That was on Monday.

    Ahhhhhh, didn't realize how much I was missing that good ole VMP uncertainty. Will it come? Won't it? How badly was it damaged by whoever does their logistics work nowadays?

    I rejoined for the free month. No shipping notice, just showed up in my Informed Delivery. Corner bump and big seam splits on my Stooges, so back into the VMP customer service loop. I got the non-VMP David Gray and it sounds great, btw.

    I couldn't get anything to load on my phone or work computer. At home on the Mac and it's working fine.

    If it's too mean, they won't get it anyhow. Cheers! Hope you get a bit of rest and relaxation. Vancouver is scary....you know....the "q" word. It seems like nobody wants to be in the ER. Go figure. Especially the stuff that has no business there. Subtract the elective stuff and it's just plain...

    I'm hoping everyone heeds his example ("I'm shaking everybody's hands still...") and learns from his mistakes.

    All I can hear in my head now is the line from the drill instructor in Stripes, with Bill Murray, "Lighten up, Francis".

    FFS. @Captainfog I'd drop it. He's right. We're all horrible human beings.

    Wow. If you can't look at a shitty situation and laugh at it, what do you do? Dwell and fret all day? He didn't wish anyone dead. Or what @Captainfog said. I highly advise you never listen to healthcare workers conversations. You might find, while taking our jobs seriously, jokes and sarcasm...
