I was wondering if anyone else has yet to receive their Vault 14 package? I know they shipped in reverse alphabetical order and my last name starts with a "C" ......... but the anticipation is killing me
Anyone else out there still waiting on theirs to arrive as well?
I think they announced that all had been shipped. You should e-mail vault@thirdmanrecords.com to have them check on yours.

For Vault 14, everyone was supposed to receive an email to their registered Vault email address when theirs was shipped out, U.S. Vault members received a tracking number. I'd suggest first checking your spam and then if you are a regular Vault member check that your funds were taken out of your account during October.

^^ Except that not everyone's funds are taken out in the month that the package is announced. The date funds are taken out coincides (more or less) with the date you signed up.

How does that work? Say I skipped 14 which was offered during the month of October, but decided to join in December despite missing the October 31st cut-off, does that mean I'm already good for Vault 15 being offered today through January 31st?
I joined the 8th of the very first sub so my funds have always been taken out the 8th of the month it's open.

The whole system is a little weird, I signed up for vault #8 on the next to last day. With the way the processing goes if that date the next time around falls on a weekend or a holiday the date gets pushed back. Now on the last vault, #14 my payment was taken out 4 days after the last day to sign up for the vault but it still works fine, it scares me everytime that my payment does not happen until after the cutoff date but so far so good.
That is really complicated! I guess OP should use the above example when checking if payment was taken and contact TMR. From reading all the posts about Modlife and the Vault, sounds like it can get a bit complicated.

If you paid in December, you missed Vault 14 but got a great big jump on the deadline for Vault 15. I first went Platinum at the end of July 2010 (dunno why Modlife shows my start date as 8/30/11 when my history shows that it's actually earlier- WONKY!!). My payments have shifted to a few days later, with the last being charged to my credit card on December 5th. That means that I'm always paying for each package before it's been announced.
I keep thinking of reverting back to Premium for a few weeks and then signing up for Platinum again after the next Vault announcement so that my payment will go through during the deadline month, but I'm always paranoid of doing so at a time when Modlife might be generating the package mailing list for TMR. Seeing as how they're so wonky and all.
