I had the same issue. They eventually sent my tracking but WITHOUT the Chet Bakers. They said it would be sent out shortly, but that was quite a few days ago now!

I had to have a replacement shipped for something else last week, I thought they would just put my monthly in there to save on some shipping. I guess that's why the price hike's were so frustrating, it seems if they had a better warehouse situation they could save a shit ton of money.

I’m still waiting as well (Cash, Eyedea & the Monk restock).

Yes its really bad decision making, you could improve your system to save money on shipping or just ignore it and throw cost over to your customer. Which even if they think that is not what they are doing. It 100%. clearly is the end product.

And with the prices higher, I'm that much more willing to call out any imperfections in the product and want replacement. If I'm spending $45 for a record from them, it better be perfect.

@Jeff Lerner @Matt M My VMP box arrived over the weekend minus the 2 Chets. I had already asked CS and they said to wait 7 days and I should receive tracking, but I have not seen anything yet and its been more than a week. Have either of you had tracking? I have seen a few people already receiving theirs.

No. No tracking for Cash or Chet.

I received tracking after using the chat feature, they then "released" these two. Pretty sure they should have been "released" when the month turned over.

This is highly irregular for VMP. It's shipping and communication is usually absolutely bang on.
Highly irregular!

Box arrived! Johnny Cash is good overall. There was some pops near the end of side A that gave me some flashbacks to the problems I had a few months ago with Billie Holiday, but even if they don't come out with a couple of cleanings, it's not THAT bad and isn't as noticeable as it was with Billie (which was a quieter record overall).
Also in the box: Monk's Palo Alto that I scored in one of the recent random restocks. Haven't opened it yet and I don't usually care much what the exact number is for limited releases, but this copy was number 5. It's not 1, but still, a single digit is pretty cool.
Lastly I got PinkSiifu's Records & Tapes. Some great RVA-tinged hip hop and at a good price for a double LP. Surprised it hasn't sold out, don't sleep on it, y'all.

I wanted this to be the ROTM, but yeah as a $40 exclusive (plus Canadian exhange) this is a hard pass for me. I'm sad but I think I'm going to wait to see if it gets a general repress at some point, because that is kind of insane.
