    Still hoping for a magical refund on things I already bought (ha!) but my Rolling Stones On Air LP finally showed up unannounced so at least my orders are complete now.

    I've been trying to return warped records since NOV 30th. I have the longest support thread ever in my inbox. We will see...

    I’ve been waiting for about a month. One record was warped and scratched, and the other one was an opened and used copy. Trying to resist emailing again since that apparently bucks you to the back of the line, but yeesh.

    I was notified my Coltrane Ballads would ship by the 19th. So maybe I'll get it in a few days. Would be a nice surprise!

    Yeah, I’ve checked it out since but missed the boat on grabbing a free copy. Hopefully it will come around again.

    I scored it in the summer sale but it sits, unopened. When I remedy that I'll reply

    Looks like a Valentine's Day BOGO 50% off sale will be going live soon. Not much better than the 30% off holiday sale, as this really is 25% off per item. Same deal is at uDiscover.

    The graphic is up on their front page, but the link goes to a "404 page not found".

    Valentine's Day BOGO sale is over it seems in spite of advertising that it will go until Valentine's Day. I was waiting for Chiefs bet to finalize before ordering... oh well.

    Lol, I told them months ago to cancel my "Coltrane" order, but apparently they're still sending it supposedly sometime this week. We'll see!

    Does anyone else have points on their Sound of Vinyl account that cant be redeemed? Not sure why but I can never use my earned points on an order.

    They won't let you use points if items have been discounted in a sale.

  18. Same experience here - unable to use points on either sale or non-sale items.

    They do eventually respond to messages, in my experience. I would contact them and explain the problem.

    I normally always got decent/good support as long as I was patient but I was having a similar issue late last Year and had about $30-40 worth of points about to expire and couldn't get them to work with even full priced items.. I messaged them and got a reply full of grammar errors that didn't really even make sense to what I was asking at all (TBF to them this was the first time I ever got a response like this so hopefully it was just a rare occurrence?). I meant to start a new support claim but completely forgot and ended up losing all my remaining points there and SoV due to them expiring. I got so many great deals from them in the past I just never even messaged them again and let it go since I didn't feel like dealing with it anymore as I didn't have the time. Sadly, it feels like this is how many of the current big businesses especially run things where they make CS such a hassle many people just let it go or simply forget about it.

    I was always one of the few that stood up for them but i'm done with both sites unless it's an unbelievable kind of deal.

    Saying all that, i'd absolutely message them still if I were you and hopefully you have better luck!

    I've used points recently, but it seems like the new Rewards program for both SOV and uDiscover makes you wait 1 month after placing the order (or maybe the delivery date) to receive your points. :(

    They had that price when I ordered in December. Great record but probably hits this price again if anyone has FOMO.

    I think it’s in their “Secret Sale” section and has remained there for a while. Pretty sure his Colors album is too.

    EDIT: Yep, still there along with a bunch of other stuff! Apparently they are gonna keep these prices until this stuff is gone… Secret Specials

    I ordered the 4 LP Goat’s Head Soup set from Sound of Vinyl and the Paypal payee was Universal Music Group, same as the online Blue Note store. So it’s the same company?
