The Isley Brothers sounds magnificent! Get it! Much more worth it than Jay Som in my opinion! And also, I have a feeling Isley Brothers will sell out before Jay Som!signed up this morning for Soft Bulletin (I'll sell it or my old copy whichever I like less) and Jorge Ben
Confirmed getting QOTSA now and maybe Jay Som? It's limited to 500. But I kind of want Isley's too
One thing I will credit VMP for is being very open about the existence of the standard edition on their details section of the announcement page for QOTSA. I'm glad they're not pretending their version is the only option, and tout the deluxe packaging as a sign to members showing their value. Say what you will about VMP (there's a lot to say, surely), but they've done great with the SFTD reissue. Can't wait to get mine!

That’s called damage control, not transparency.One thing I will credit VMP for is being very open about the existence of the standard edition on their details section of the announcement page for QOTSA.

What damage are they controlling? They are about to make a boatload of money and the QOTSA website even directs to VMP for the deluxe edition. I know this forum is firmly entrenched in the VMP is evil camp, but this ain't it.That’s called damage control, not transparency.
The well documented 3 month sign up scam. I believe you’ve been called out for your VMP apologist nature before, which you mostly denied. I guess we just got confirmation.What damage are they controlling? They are about to make a boatload of money and the QOTSA website even directs to VMP for the deluxe edition.

The 3 month sign up that is required for new members is now a scam? I have indeed been called out for not being hysterically anti VMP, sure. They do plenty I don't agree with, I just try not to be a child about it. If you come to these threads to just hate on the topic of the thread, I think your motivations are more questionable than my own.The well documented 3 month sign up scam.

In his defense, this forum is hotbed echo chamber of VMP hate. Sometimes it might be justified but it’s usually overboard.
Apparently you don’t have any of the relevant details around this issue and I’m not going to waste my time informing you.The 3 month sign up that is required for new members is now a scam?

Stop.
They are talking about announcing the next 3 months at that time. It was a way of jumping the gun and getting 3 month sign ups before Queens could announce their release of it.
I'm really not trying to insult anyone here, but how was announcing the next 3 months of Essentials a scam? From what I recall from that day, VMP made the announcement, everyone freaked out, and then there was discussion pretty early on about whether it was exclusive. I don't recall when the QOTSA announcement about a standard edition came out but I don't believe there was a huge gap.Bang on! It was sneaky and not a nice strategy to play. I’m happy to get the nice colour and because of the dollar to euro exchange rate at the moment it’s not going to be more than the standard and I’m getting a nice coloured mono aretha the month after. If it’d had been followed up by something of the derisory standard of essentials March-September I’d have been majorly pissed off!
