Hi all,
Just a quick note to clarify our intention with the pre-sale tickets on the Vault Pre-Sales page. These tickets are meant for members who are on the Vault for the same reasons that we hope all fans and followers are so dedicated to Third Man: for sincere and genuine interest in Third Man artists and releases, vinyl, historic recordings and reissues, art, film, literature, challenging normalcy in the antiquated music industry, analog recording, high-quality collectible products, etc. An intention that is not encouraged (and, in fact, not tolerated) is turning a profit off of our members' genuine interests in such creative works.
Although it would be impossible for us to filter members by intention upon purchasing a product, it becomes pretty clear on the secondhand market whose intentions are less than honorable. If and when a break in this policy occurs, really for any offer extended to Vault members, the Vault member(s) and any outstanding store orders will immediately be canceled from the Vault and membership will be revoked.
We hate to be so strict about this policy but feel that it is our responsibility to stick up for the members who have been so loyal, supportive and kind over the years since this whole crazy experiment began. Hope to have you all on board for years to come.

Vault Ticketing Policy Note
i stand behind this fully! well said, vault team.
hold on, you say you can’t filter members out that are disloyal, and yet your policy i was aware of when i signed up.
I love this policy and i think you can be able to track down the members by bar-coding the items and/or start numbering the vault issues like (123/15,000)…just some ideas…
if theres’s a will, theres a way
Damn skippy
Good to hear this from you, dudes.
Good for you, guys. This is why vault memberships are such a genuine experience
Go TMR! This policy is a great thing. The vault is a big deal for a lot of true TMR fans.
Oh yeah. Do you think you’ll do early entry again this year? That was the business.
Anything that enforces good judgment I am all for. When you figure out common sense – I’m all ears. Everyone does so much, I really appreciate all the work that goes into each and every offering. Thank you. :)
Dear Ben, Vault, and TMR,
This policy is great! Please don’t say that you hate to be so strict about it. I love your first paragraph. That really sums up so eloquently exactly how I feel about being a member of the Vault.
Please continue to do as you are doing. The creative works you bring to life are incredible. I appreciate them and enjoy them so very much; they also provide insight and education into many creative works. Thank you!!
Yeah, I really want to go to The Masonic Temple. I’ll give it a try tomorrow with the rest of the rift raft.
