FAQs
Got a question?
What is VMP Anthology?
VMP Anthology is the vinyl box set, reinvented. It aims to use music to tell a story, and gives space for lots of listening, learning, and conversation along the way.
What is VMP?
VMP started as a record of the month club in 2013 and has expanded into an online record store and magazine. Click our logo in the footer to learn more.
How much is shipping? How will shipping work?
Shipping is free in the U.S. and $50 internationally. Records will be sent in one shipment. Orders will ship out within 5 business days. We will notify you of any shipping updates.
How is the experience structured?
We created VMP Anthology for people who recognize that every album has a deep story to tell. By breaking up the albums into 4 weeks, we give you space to truly listen and absorb each individual recording, listen to the podcast and soak it in. Of course, this is just a suggested cadence!
Do I need to be a VMP member to purchase this?
Nope! We built VMP Anthology as a way for all fans to experience music more deeply, and VMP membership is not required.
Is this available internationally? What about customs?
Yes, shipping is available in 16 countries in addition to the U.S. (view all FAQs for more details). For international customers, customs and duties will be pre-paid and nothing will be due upon receipt.
What is Afterpay?
Afterpay is an interest-free financing option that allows you to make four bi-weekly (every two weeks) installment payments rather than one upfront payment. If you choose Afterpay at checkout, you will be redirected to the Afterpay site to create an account and to complete your payment. You won’t be charged any interest or fees, as long as your payments are made on time. At this time, Afterpay is only available for customers in the United States.
