    Vinyl Me Please Essentials

    I do receive a higher amount of vinyl from VMP vs any other label on a regular basis. So maybe it balances out in the long run, but if replacements weren’t available (they weren’t with my super warped RUN DMC LP from them), I’d probably just dip for good. I avoid numero vinyl because they had...

    Vinyl Me Please Essentials

    I had the minor pops on the other sides but side D quality sounded like the old timey record player from classic movies. I kept thinking about what my cutoff would be in terms of tolerance while listening to the album (vinyl isn’t perfect) but multiple times in one track seems to be it. An...

    Run Out Grooves also do a nice job. Precedence that paper sleeves are not at all premium.

    VMP are sending a replacement. Rhino will put some of their releases in lined Inners and also include a facimile of the original sleeve to boot. That’s the sweet spot IMO.

    Vinyl Me Please Essentials

    My D side of Ladies and Gentlemen also had a lot of noise even after multiple cleanings of debris. It’s crazy how they pitch a premium product but skip on lined inner sleeves. I’ve maybe requested 3-4 replacements this year for various titles from VMP and it’s starting to wear my confidence to...

    it’s actually from my local shop - every RSD they have cookies made with record company logos. However, river runs red was very influential for one of my old bands, just not in cookie form.

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

    keep it up people and VMP will be emboldened to press Starbucks cd collections to vinyl if they feel subscribers will accept anything. Also, I never want to hear the phrase “ear porn” again but I have a feeling it’ll end up in a promo at some point for VMP.

    If it’s 90s artists, can we expect a Woodstock 94 boxset to hit swaps next year?

    only pixies LP missing deluxe treatment is trompe le monde but anniversary is next year, so 4ad likely already on it. BBC sessions would be cool.

    was typing an edit as you posted. Not sure I’m relieved or alarmed it could be Hole/Nirvana.

    Vinyl Me Please Essentials

    edit: I misread the clues and mixed them up. As you were. I didn’t see a Hole release in 96 or 02 via discogs that jumped out other than bootlegs, but a live Nirvana was released in 96. I’ve used the quarantine to read Patty Schemel and Mark Lanegan’s books among others about the Seattle scene...

    Vinyl Me Please Rap & Hip Hop

    Unfortunately the masters are no longer available for the imago albums, but End of Silence would be incredible.

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

    I’m just pissed that the recent Otis and Stooges releases are likely the best things I’ve ever gotten from VMP. Package and sound are flawless. Maybe it’s the quarantine talking, but I’ll pop back in if they can pull off stuff like this in the future.

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

    I gave up 2 of my 3 tracks this week after continued issues. Cancelled my main which is due to renew in June but CS finally corrected last months issue today after I called them out on IG. The swap issues got me last month and the title in question was again in swaps this month and disappeared...

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

    I haven’t gotten my April records yet. That part isn’t my issue, but rather that my swap reverted back to rick Ross and they shipped it even after I emailed well in advance. Tired of giving money for warped records and inconsistent CS. For that reason, I’m out. (Cancelled until something...

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

    I wrote in on 4/13 to the help desk about a swap that defaulted to the original pick (that I never wanted) and got the automated response. Today, I got shipping notification that they sent the original pick (that I still don’t want) and no response from the help desk. So at least I’m getting...

    I agree with your point, and if that would be the case their system should reflect that. However, it didn’t.

    where does it say you can’t? It was in the swap options, paid for both copies full price.
