Weird site. Weird site. I kind of like the whole "monthly subscription" idea (although the catalog is so limited it wouldn't work for me), but the truly bizarre thing is that the site primarily sells vinyl fetishism rather than music. Catalog is the smallest of any record store I've ever seen, including brick & mortar, which might be okay if there seemed to be some kind of guiding principles or aesthetic driving the offerings, but it comes across pretty random, with some quality releases sprinkled in *if* they have hipster appeal (they probably didn't have any Bowie until after he died). Worse, there is no information about any of the releases...not even lists of song titles. But the dead giveaway is the emphasis on framed options. The Vinylmnky tagline might as well be "we sell music for you to look at."

VinylMnky came through VinylMnky came through. We got off to a rough start largely due to the timing of my order. There was no communication for a week until a wrote a panic review after having read some other reviews. After the initial delay in hearing from VinylMnky, they returned to work after the Thanksgiving weekend and set about to sending me the Kanto YU6 speakers (BIG SHOUT OUT - these speakers are fantastic!) and a selection of some classic vinyl I had ordered. Again, slow start but Travis’ team at VinylMnky came through in the end. This would have been a “4” all along if the communication about being closed through the holiday had been clear.

The best of all my subscription services VinylMnky is the best! Consistently introducing me to new music, while also peppering in some recognizable artists. And they throw in stickers and signed posters with almost every order. They have awesome access to the artists and their teams. Ordering vinyl from them is extremely convenient as well.

DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM. Avoid ordering from them. They overcharge on releases that are usually widely available and their policy WON’T ALLOW CANCELLATIONS OR RETURNS. I pre-ordered an item that arrive damaged and now they don’t reply to my e-mails So I’m stuck with an item that I highly overpaid for. Shop somewhere else.
