It was limited to 300. In total, between all variants and black vinyl, this entire press was limited to 1,000. Yesterday on reddit there were a lot of "never heard of this but i'll buy it based on the cover. hope i like it!" and "i already bought the Fat Beats version but will buy the VMP one too!". I think a lot of flippers bought this one too based on the hype on reddit yesterday. Not a lot of people seemed to even know what this record was. I've been wanting a good copy for awhile and I like the Tidal Waves pressings I have so I was able to grab one through my friend.
FWIW the PO lost about 7 records from May including Woodstock, Tyler from customer service sent me replacements, should be here Monday.
same hereI just woke up and am a little bit devastated I missed out on the Oliver Nelson! I previewed the album yesterday and really enjoyed it and the colour variant from the mock-up looks spectacular! Really wish this one didn’t sell out so quickly!
Agree 100 percent that one is one of my favorites, I've been holding off on buying it though. Parasite is just devastating,
Mmmmmmm That last track is absolutely amazing! It’s so touching and Eugene’s vocals on that track are so nice too! It’s such an incredible album. Outlaw is good album, but Headless Heroes of The Apocalypse is a masterpiece!
I'm on 2.5 weeks for never receiving my record, but some people hear back the same day, so it's worth a shot.
Depending on the request anything from ten minutes, to four days, to never. Sucks that there's so many issues with yours, my recommendation is just be persistent. Currently waiting for a response because my swaps changed today, two weeks into the month.
I am SO excited for the Herbie box as well. Hoping it doesnt cost too much and that they choose some of his more obscure releases!Even though I wish I purchased it, i don’t care too much about missing out on Skull Sessions to be honest. Colour variant does look incredibly good though! Something I cannot miss out on however, would be the Herbie Hancock Anthology Boxset (which contains 8 Herbie Hancock albums in there). Like, that’s something I really cannot miss otherwise I’ll be like “”! Nah mean!?!?
I just know I won’t get it if it comes back in store as I’ll be asleep. But yeah, happy for everyone in this forum who got a copy of the Skull Session
Damn that is low. I noticed that there was a 2 limit when I bought my copy, so hopefully, it wasn't flippers that swept them up.
I ended up messaging them through Instagram and gave them my email address to check, got back to me the same day after that. It was kind of ridiculous because all I wasn't to know was what I was actually getting as I wasnt sure if my swap went through. It was a 2-minute job for them to check once they actually looked at my request.
Just a tip for any future issues, it's based on a ticket system so in theory, I believe if you email again it takes your original ticket to the bottom of the pile.
I have now sent an email, commented on IG, commented on FB, and sent them a DM about an issue with Anthology I have had--it is missing one of the albums...Complete radio silence. I have no idea how to get in contact with them beyond that...
I thought that originally which is why I waited several days before following up and then received an immediate response on that occasion. There's no consistency for me between time or amount sent and hearing back from them.
Oh damn really. I wonder if they pick up on it once they go to ship. Like if someone ordered 20 records out of the 300 surely they would flag that up?
I personally do not think that they check it at all. I assume they take the money and don't look back. There are lots of sellers on ebay and discogs with tons of copies of VMP albums and exclusives (Vinceron comes to mind). We have also seen the "glitches" where VMP's system was telling Saddle Creek that one person bought 25 copies of something like The Infamous and it went unchecked.
