Got a response from merch bar.

Thanks for waiting and sorry for the delay in shipping your order. We've encountered some unforeseen processing issues and currently don't have an estimated ship date. In some cases, updates may not be available until your order ships, at which point you'll receive a notification.

Should you wish not to wait any longer, simply reply to this message and we'll be happy to guide you through the cancellation and refund process.

LOL

 

I went to my Order Status page and the Cancel button made an email template for me. I asked for a refund due to more than a month without an update and said I'd be emailing once a day starting Friday if I didn't hear back. I got a reply within minutes granting my refund. Glad that's over.

Guess I'll be looking for TOP - Vessel and Turnstile - Time & Space elsewhere.

 

Got myself into a dumbass of a pickle. I ordered the Sufjan Christmas vinyl from Sentinel Vinyl
Last December. I didn’t check for all the negative reviews and warnings on Reddit. Anyway, they said it was backordered.

Waited almost a year. Emailed them today to cancel only to see they canceled it in September and never messaged me. The customer service rep sent me a gift card for double the price of my order. The catch: The site got into so much fraud that it changed its name and now everything they have is backordered. They might as well have given me a gift card to Hollywood Video.

I’m threatening a chargeback and to claim fraud through their vendor. Scummy as hell.

 

VMP sent another email out now blaming the US port strikes for their vinyl release delays. Clever.

 

lol I didn't heed warnings about them and had to cancel an order recently. took a minute but we got it back.

 

I have no idea if it still matters(it’s been a while since I ordered from Merchbar) but if the shipping location is from Florida I always seemed to get my stuff, and if it was from Kentucky it didn’t move an inch and I’d have to cancel.

 

That’s odd. When I lived in Florida it was always Kentucky.

 

Today's the day! Extra 30% off already discounted vinyl on Urban Outfitters: https://www.urbanoutfitters.com/record-players-vinyl-sale

 

fuckin finally. got five things for ~$50, free shipping, and used a five dollar rewards i had

 

thank god. nothing i want. haha

 

It would be irresponsible to not buy those Sufjan albums at that price.

I've never heard those Michigan b-sides, so I'm excited to hear them for the first time on vinyl.

 

Marianas Trench "Haven" PO's are up.

Haven (2LP Vinyl Pre-Order)

 

K. Soto (Seahaven lead singer) solo effort is now up for preorder. I see anything Seahaven related, I'm all-in. Complete sucker, I guess

Your Love is Conditional

 

Hell yeah. Got FOB, Rihanna and Hovvdy.

 

i should mention, all of them were artists i haven't heard before. i've done blind buys on UO sales before and it hasn't backfired ...yet

 

I do really like that Raveena record, and the variant matching the artwork aesthetic is even more tempting… damn you, Urban

 

that's one of the ones I got! excited to listen to it

 

I think I have the same shirt he's wearing on the cover art

 

Doesnt seem worth it with shipping, but I may swing by my local UO this weekend to see if FOB and Lil Dicky are in stock.

 

#WhoWoreItBest

 

Making some sounds on my turntable…it’s gonna be a good day!

 

Thanks for posting! Finally purchased that FOB album i've had on my wishlist for a while.

 

Wait y'all hadn't gotten the Stardust one yet? I think I preordered it from Target so I've had it since it came out. Just kinda figured they'd be a high priority band round these parts

 

i liked that album. but not enough where i felt like i need to add it to my vinyl collection.

 

This. I couldn't justify it as a $30 vinyl after shipping. Snagging a colored variant (even clear) for $20 shipped is perfect for this album for me.
