There is also no Kate Gibb art in it. Looking for a contact for White Rabbit customer service. This was supposed to have been the reason for the delay, they were making sure all books had the correct stuff in them

Totally weird. The special edition is a fixed content package, no variations. Does it seem like the package was opened somehow at any point during transportation?

No the box was taped closed and the book was shrink wrapped. Was the vinyl and Kate Gibb art inside the box the book was in the way the stickers and studio poster was or were they separate?

Judging from unboxing videos I've seen they should be in the same compartment. I fear it's a case for customer support  :o
Oo-ee, bit wobbly on the old feet!


Yeah I've contacted White Rabbit customer service. Hope the reason for the original delay was these items had to be placed in the boxes and they just missed my one.
I've never spent €160 on a book, wont be doing it again!!

At this point, they should just send you a second copy

Here's the unboxing video:

thanks Stefan, yeah when I opened the lid on the left, it just had the stickers and studio poster. I thought there was some hidden compartment for the vinyl that I couldnt find :))

The parcelsapp didn't even knows my package existed 🤷
no idea, no idea

Oh no, @gavin35 ! What an unfortunate turn of events, so sorry this is happening to you. Please retain all the packaging and take images if you can in case it's needed for a possible shipping claim. A reimbursement of some or all costs and a replacement would be ideal. I really hope this gets worked out for you!!
Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.

I received mine today but there was no vinyl with it ::hb

mine should arrive by the end of the day, but hearing this mishap is giving me major anxiety.

I hope you get it sorted out, and hopefully this is the only incident regarding the deluxe editions.

Mine is now at German customs, I hope they will have mercy on me  ::)

Mine was sent DHL and is en route, and hasn't been transferred to USPS yet. I am trying to trust the process but won't lie about being a total worry wart over this!

Is there a secret compartment in the box where it should be? I got the stickers and the picture of the studio alright but nothing else. Is this right?
What the hell? I hope WR responds by today with a solution. Hit them up on their social media accounts and maybe they'll respond faster!

As for the 500 copies of Superflash, they should have spare copies made just in case this kind of stuff happens 

Like Bosco said, I'm now concerned as well.

As for White Rabbit...

By 3pm today, it will be 2 days since the last package scan (still stuck in England)

So I'm guessing tonight I'll land in L.A. and tomorrow USPS will bring it home.

One word review of the super deluxe - weighty!



Can confirm. It's a hefty chonker. Beautiful, hefty chonker :luv .

#84 is my lucky number.

Regarding the Kate Gibb print and Superflash, everything is there. I hope and keep my fingers crossed that WR can sort this out super fast for Gavin, there shouldn't be a need to refund anything, just send the missing items as fast as possible.

As for the record, it's a bit weird, because it doesn't fit the tray on my computer. The laptop is super old, maybe CD standards have changed in between?

Jokes aside, I'm dying to listen to it, but I don't even have a vinyl player :Kry
The public library  in Vienna has a vinyl listening corner and even equipment to digitize them, I might try this next week.

Oh, and there weren't any additional fees to pay.

For a second I thought you were about to cram the 7" into that laptop CD player  out of desperation :D

When logistics and transportation
Have fallen sloppy dead
And White Rabbit is talking backwards
And the Red Queen's off with her head
Remember what the DHL mouse said
