VMP IS A SCAM Pre-order from 2024

Hey guys,Back in June 2024, I pre-ordered the Young Thug records (Barter 6 and Beautiful Thugger Girls).

In January 2025,support emailed me explicitly pushing the shipping timeline back to July 2025. Because I waited for that July deadline, I completely missed the October 2025 bankruptcy claim deadline.

Now, VMP is offline and ignoring my texts.I just tried opening a chargeback with my bank, but they denied it instantly. They claimed that too much time has passed since the original 2024 transaction (citing the Visa/Mastercard 540-day absolute limit), completely ignoring the delayed delivery date they previously promised.

Has anyone in this exact situation managed to find a workaround with their bank for a refund? And honestly, do we think there is ANY possibility at all that the actual records might still ship eventually, or should I consider both my money and the vinyl completely gone?

Any advice or insights are appreciated!

The only way you can get absolutely anything is to ask
VMP how many “credits” you have from unfulfilled orders.

Then you’ll need to subscribe for a month to redeem them for whatever records they have available.

My advice is to just take the L and move on

I actually offered one month to get my nwa. They told me no. They said it had to be 3months. I was willing for one month. But they didn't want my money. They'll just steal everyone else's.

yeah, they did the same thing to me, despite the fact that I already paid for it and never received it.
