Goodies from Vault Platinum Pack #3

[trickster]

I agree this will likely be an annual event. If they include all the b-sides (which looks likely on a double LP) this is a good deal for the people that didn't but the singles.

thats what i assume
12x7" = 24 tracks (some were 1 sided anyway)
So around 24 tracks would fit in a double 12". Otherwise it wouldnt make sense that this is a double release.

and from the tracklisting shown on the picture the b-sides are included as I was expecting

A weird thing to comment on but...

I really like the yellow spine, the spine is probably the thing I see the most and that yellow seems to really pop. I never understood the red spine on GBMS, it throws me off every time.

So April is the cut off?

Yeah, the design of this package is awesome!
I really love the LPs now, coloured and with awesome sleeve. Still going to wait until April to sign up for Platinum, though :/

At the latest it would be the end of the month given the last period was extended to the 31st October

Shelling out $60 now vs. then. For some people that is alot of money.

I have just tried to read some of the posts in the vault website and its saying I NEED TO UPGRADE MY ACCOUNT!! I thought that our subscriptions automatically re-new themselves or do we now have to sign up each quarter? Someone please help!!

I had the same problem and contacted modlife. They said they tried to renew my subscription but couldn't and advised me to choose upgrade from the drop down list. May have been tied to a cc that just expired. Regardless, I'm keeping an eye out for a possible double billing.

I think TMR might be getting record low numbers for this package because they seem to be trying very hard...

They have never released info about the vault to Pitchfork, just reg releases and whatnot. Seems a little weird but maybe they are just ramping up their marketing, the vault being advertised on Pitchfork makes it seem slight less exclusive and interesting to me.

link fixed
I think the Vault had an article mention on Pitchfork during July while they were accenting first time subscriptions

Ah, thanks, it is early haha.

I am registering a second account to get the #3 and have it as a spare cause I love the art on that 12"
So while I am doing this I noticed that on the address step there is this info required:

T-Shirt Size
From time to time The Vault may offer a t-shirt as
part of their platinum subscription

So it is clear that the t-shirt wasnt meant to be a regular offered item

Sometimes this happens if you haven't been on The Vault for a few days - it logs you out. Look for a login or sign-in link just right of the top-centre of the screen

If these postcards are not scaled up then, comparing to the LP size, they seem to be like 10"x5"
which is bigger that I was hoping!
