@chemman14 where are you?

 

[CCKrone]

They seriously think retweeting people who support their price increase is a smart move? This is honestly hilarious in its ineptitude.

I foresee a very disappointed customer in their future.
Man, that guy is reaching for the rationale behind staying onboard.

 

[NathanRicaud]

@NathanRicaud what do you reckon? Still cheerleading with a nearly 50% price increase on a 3 month sub?

No, I won’t be cheerleading anymore!

Only when they release something an exclusive that’s incredible...like the upcoming Spiritualized ROTM!

This is how you respond to, like, a 10% price increase. Not nearly 50%.

 

[Skalap]

Omg, I can’t believe the price hike.....

I really hope VMP don’t change their name. I wanna have free membership for as long as possible!

You know they will increase your free subscription by 47% anyway, don't you?

 

[Skacel]

So the sell is £40 for a record that might be a dud, will likely arrive late and might look completely different to what was sold. On top of support that can take weeks to respond if at all.

Not to mention beaten to shit half the time.

Can’t believe the add-on has increased by 47%! It’s ridiculous!

 

[Rahawk2]

I do wonder if they have some tricks up their sleeves though to warrant that price hike. I bet they have some represses on the way that will suck people back in. De La, Saba , Hooker maybe

Im not clued up on this but lets say you were subbed for a year and they went broke after a couple months, what would happen to the money you already paid?

 

[Skalap]

Awesome

Now I can pick up now stuff from Bandcamp, Newbury comics, urban outfitters (this year I gotta get Lana), stuff I had on my bullmoose wishlist, the black version of that dashboard confessional all, vand trying to be team noswap on the n+g even though I already skipped 3 times

Seriously, you don't need VMP for nothing. We are all way more passionate than them and we don't make any dollar on any record we can recommend to you. We do it for free and we do it because we want you to know and perhaps love the records we recommend. If you want to be part of another paid record club, I warmly recommend French Wax Buyer's Club. The owner @Edd is part of this community and have been really helpful.

The 10$ increase per addi-on will hurt @NathanRicaud enough

It’s still not worth $52 dollars and that’s what you’ll be promoting if you big up one of their records now.

Your money is probably lost and certainly in someone's else pocket.

I was just scared I had no identity without vmp

I just am not great with curation and figuring out what new is coming out so I depend on new exclusives and pitchfork buzz to see what stuff if actually good

Assuming they have sizeable debts? You probably aren't getting your money back.

I guess the only thing that would make sense would be to swap for credit, the purchase the ROTM in store for USD$34/USD$40!

But even that’s expensive too...

Do you really think the store prices won’t go up to stop that being a ploy?

Always pay with PayPal, that gives you 6 months protection.

Otherwise get in line for bankruptcy court. You'd likely get zilch if PayPal or your Credit Card can't help you.

You have your identity like anybody else. You don't need a damn record club for that and certainly not VMP.

That’s also 40 something per cent given that $10 is a fair chunk of $23!
