DO NOT SUBSCRIBE. You will get charged month after month and never receive anything in the mail. Not to mention it is impossible to get anyone on the toll free number. You have to leave a voicemail and of course they never get back to you. You cant cancel or pause on website or through the phone. This is the biggest scam and needs to be shut down.

DO NOT FALL FOR THIS COMPANIES GIMMICKS. They are a scam!
This company continues to advertise for false products, using those with high follower counts to promote a product that is not real, much like Fyre Fest. I made a purchase for a friend for her graduation in May/June 2020, she then went on to fill out the online form for her music taste and complete her profile, it has been 3 1/2 months with no records being made available and NO RESPONSE from VNYL. Contact was attempted to be made via phone, instagram, twitter, facebook and email. Where they have only automated responses and never a real person. This company continue to take from those who have purchased from them, and has been reported several times, they shut off their comments on all social media so no one can be warned to not buy from them. They even continued to charge my friends account without any reason, and never sent any follow up confirmation and now claim to not do refunds. Do not fall for their appeal, they are pathetic.

DO NOT sign up for a membership on VNYL.Org. They offer a monthly membership to have records sent every month. They sent the first month, but not the subsequent months even though they kept charging the $30 monthly fee. Attempts to cancel the monthly charges were unsuccessful. Attempted to cancel via the website, phone, and also the online chat feature. Nobody would return my phone calls and the online chat went unanswered. I finally had to seek a resolution via my bank.

Advertise all over about their monthly subscription service for random vnyl so I tried it. Spent money on 3 curated vnyl then I did some research which I should have done prior and multiple people were not getting their records while they are still taking their money. The only way to cancel your subscription is through a phonecall which they don’t ever answer. They won’t reply to any criticism but will continue to advertise and reply to comments and messages that could lead them to more money. Extremely disappointed because this business idea is wonderful too bad they had to ruin it and scam people

I recently started building a record collection, and ads kept popping up for Vnyl: a vinyl subscription service. They have a large presence on social media, and I saw several people positively review their product. I signed up for a 3 month subscription, including 9 records for $99. I was successfully billed, and then the credit appeared on my account as a "gift card" with no possible option to redeem it. I emailed and called customer service multiple times, and never received a response. I was never sent shipping updates or order updates, only a confirmation that I was charged $99. This company attracts people on social media, completing orders to influential people to receive positive feedback and build their reputation, but the majority of their orders are never fulfilled. I was a bit cautious to complete the order, as the website did not seem completely legit, but I saw reviews from others and thought it would be alright.

My soon to be wife was excited about the new record player I just bought her. In her excitement she immediately ordered new records from amazon, as well as from: VNYL.COM. The records from amazon came in without any issue, the ones from VNYL are not even shipped.
Under the guise of a "subscription" they ask you to pay $40 a month for 3 records a month. Seems like a no-brainer good deal. But what they do not say is that they will never send you those records. That if you try and cancel the subscription, the e-mail provided: VNYL.ORG is not a real e-mail. Your bank cannot STOP any payments because they are not charging you on a "recurring" basis. That any attempt by you to pause or terminate will go unheard. Why? Simply, because they want to keep your money and give you nothing. Heed my warning about this company.
They know what they are doing. By making it a subscription that does not charge you on a recurring basis, they are more likely to get more than one payment out of you. By trying to terminate via an e-mail address that is not even valid forces you to terminate over the phone. A number they do not even answer. This company should be prosecuted for: Fraud, DTPA, Breach of Contract, and many more claims. Be safe out there.
