I hope the joy of spinning this will help me dry my tears after paying through the nose for import duties.  Thanks Brexit.

These vinyl backups are gonna be really bad for the foreseeable future. Artists/labels are gonna need 6+ months of lead time. Probably way more as the year goes on and albums that were supposed to come out or were worked on the past year need to drop. 

But RSD releases will be available, with less lead time.  TMR releases aren’t delayed, we ordered these in Oct. we are going on what 9 months.

Totally agree. I also just get really tired of the lack of communication. Posting on the boards or facebook every few months is fairly ridiculous for a product that we were charged for at time of order. I have ordered a few other box sets recently and all had significantly shorter time from pre order to shipping and had MUCH better communication (more frequent and more informative) from the band/shop ordered from.

RSD releases needed to be submitted by November (and its been that way for a few years and that was aiming for an April RSD until this year). 

TMR basically has 2 of their own plants so they can prioritize. 


Also, I don't think we knew when PJ submitted these for pressing, I feel like the PO as still open in Oct. It may have been open until December if I'm remembering correctly.

Santos has been updating us. 10c had been expecting these for the past few months. But between plant backups, backups in shipping lanes due to the Suez blockage, ports being short staffed because of covid and backups at said ports because of those changes to shipping lanes. Then add customs clearance, ground shipping issues, especially with the PO. Everything is fucked up. 


Yeah, 10c could be better with communication on some things, but this is not in their control and we've known that they don't know much for the past few months.

snap. in Scotland too. Been busy and not had chance to open but packing on these Vault was poor. Good luck anyone getting this in Europe in the same mailer.

Honestly, we shouldn't complain about a delay on vinyl these days. I can't get essential electrical material for my business. Still waiting for appliances order from last November for my kitchen. Tough times. Patience, everyone.

You can spin this anyway you’d like, but 10c has handled the communication on this very poorly.

How so? Santos has been posting updates many times here on the forum that they are still waiting to receive their shipment. And that there has been delays making this Vault vinyl. He has been posting updates also on social media sites too. Plus we are in a pandemic. There has been MANY delays on all sorts of products.

FR181798

From the UK store I think we had 1 or 2 email updates. Delay wasnt too bad, communication was okay if a little vague. I think with stuff like the Vault, 10c need to be emailing all those that bought it. Its all very well replying to posts on here and social media but Im guessing when people have paid money they want a proper email with a little explanation.  People will be understanding in these times, they just want to feel a valued customer.  Since I didnt order from the US has there been any emails?

Tim Simmons

No. But I don’t think I’ve ever gotten an email from 10c about a delay of anything. 

But in fairness, I think I’ve rarely gotten emails about delays in products shipping unless it’s Amazon or Target. 

The National are the only band I can think of who are going through a similar situation as this vault with their membership live record. We got 1 update back in March saying it will probably be late June. They were intending it shipping in January. So that’s been my bellwether for record production delays.

I think most places (big or small) have been communicating the delays much better than 10C. Unless you come to the forum, you would never get an update. It’s not difficult to send out a mass email communicating the delay.

I’ve gotten emails from several different labels regarding vinyl purchases, including several (4)  in this last week.

while we all know things are delayed, to expect news posted on the forum to be adequate is a bit much.  Not everyone who ordered a vault is on this forum.

also, seeing as it took them 4 years to get us some Xmas singles, complaining on here or acting surprised about a lack of info or a delay in the vault is a bit moot

I actually get emails from other companies about delays all the time. And usually it’s just a day or 2, maybe a week tops (unless it’s vinyl, which I know this this), and they manage to send out a notice. What other companies have products months or even years late? And which of those offer almost no updates?
weren’t these supposed to ship in the winter? I can’t remember if they said that at the preorder or if I just assumed so since that’s when they usually ship. Now we’re a few days away from June.
Not a big deal to me, I know things are delayed and it will eventually come. But people who don’t follow PJ forums have little updates. There’s definitely room for better communication when someone prepaid for something and it’s 6 months late so far.

I agree with the last 3 posts, which echo my post earlier on this page. Saying their communication is reasonable or adequate is very far off. Now, granted, they get away with it, but purchasing anywhere else, including from groups smaller or similar in stature, is always a more pleasant experience.
