I ordered $171 on the 27th of Dec. and they have not posted. It was saying 150 points for me, but I called GP and they said they would honor the 450 point 10-4-1 promotion.
Someone above made a good point regarding VM delivering 150 is fulfilling their promise, and your credit card company was not involved with GP. I'll wait and see what happens. This a reason to have a good credit card. I've always gotten good service from AMEX Delta. (Redeeming points for actual trips is another matter).
BTW, there is an old saying--Pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered.

I'm still waiting for points from Nov. I've faxed, called and emailed and still nothing. I also have several orders from Dec that haven't shown up including valuemags from 12/20. I'm owed around 50,000 points. Normally I wouldn't be so anxious but I need the miles for an award. Frustrating.

I order ~$500 on mags in mid Dec, no points. I ordered one more magazine recently -- and the order posted twice for some reason (and I was charged twice, argh!) -- and the points for THAT order have already posted (w/in 3 days of the order). 150 points per dollar, as I expected.
I'm getting a little tired of Valuemags, personally. I know they are swamped but they've made mistake upon mistake on my orders.

Ordered on the 26 or 27th (just after the downgrade to 150). 150 points per buck posted. Faxed receipt to GP - per their instructions confirming they would honor the 450 points per buck - as was stated in my previous post.
Account points were just bumped up 3X to the 450 mark - just as they said they would do.
Kudos to GPs!

fireflyreaction: I transferred 90% of my goldpoints to AA on 26 December - they posted to AA 2 days ago. Today I called up goldpoints to move the remaining points to Delta and they told me that I have to wait 30 days from the date of the inital purchase to do it.
Looks like I just got lucky - maybe I was the first. Hope your points post soon!
