I waited to open my ultra deluxe edition until Xmas. #164 reporting!

The page issue is mildly noticeable in mine, but not as bad as some. Unfortunately, the case has some corner bumps and slight tear inside. Not sure how the latter could've happened during shipping, but I'm just glad to finally have it in my hands.
What patience. Very well done. And a fellow deluxe version owner with tears on the inside. I am also wondering how that could happen.

I made up a draft as a reply on the White Rabbit message and shared it with 26 of you of which 6 replied. As I would like to post the reply this week, before the end of the year, I will just post it at the White Rabbit topic and you can add your comments if you want or disagreements which is also fine. For me I want to finish my correspondense with WR this year for myself so to start the new year fresh.

Haven't responsed to this yet because i'm in talks with them. They're answering, not as fast as wished they'll do, but at least it's something. That's why i'm not really sure if i should open "another case".
unfuck the world please

I have just opened mine today after receiving it for Christmas. It's so pleasing to unbox. And even more pleasing, I'm #123.

Just received the vinyl and artwork, and a bonus little card with Tom, Ed & Robin's autographs which is a nice touch.
Only issue is they just used a regular padded envelope so the artwork is creased in parts. The 7 inch was wrapped in bubble wrap and label is on the correct side and no bubbling etc.

Also on the flip side is the new live version of Wide Open ::Y


only joking

That is a nice touch. Good to know the guys are aware of the issues.

The not working tracks from the Ellie Rowsell session would have been nicer  ;)  ;D

Hoping this wasn't a joke too, otherwise i'd lied to Jen  :D

ha no it did arrive today Pum, the only fib was a track on the b-side. Just have the 2 pieces of artwork being flattened out by the boxset itself. Hopefully that does the trick. Still bad form by White Rabbit to just throw the artwork into a padded envelope and hope that it doesnt get creased in transit

Just received the confirmation that my missing items have been sent but without any tracking information.

They're fast! I got the mail at 1:39 PM and an hour and a half later the doorbell rings! The corners of mine are a little bumped, but I could not care less especially given this copy was free of charge. For the Europeans - No import fees! They sent it in a big first class letter, although be careful while opening it up and remove the staples rather than cutting through it, I'm still removing the dust that cutting it open left behind  :D

They included a wonderful little surprise too:

I'm not sure if it's meant to be actually on the page, but mine came as just the sticker in the book and does still have a removable backing. You can choose if you want to stick it on this book, your deluxe edition, your wall or your forehead. Needless to say, I am so happy  :partyG
Oo-ee, bit wobbly on the old feet!

Ok, Berlin at 1:39pm and 1,5h later you got your stuff.
In Cologne i got the mail at 2:18pm so hopes are high  my doorbel rings within the next 22 minutes  ;D



edit:  :(

And there it is  8)


But what to do with the print and the studio pic? They are to big for the box (i don't want to fold them) but i also don't want to put up on the wall. First world problems...






Edit: After spinning Superflash 3 times in a row, i just don't understand why they waited 11 years for the release. Beautiful.

Noice! Finally! Must admit, though, their signatures look pretty dull  :P . Also, if it wasn't for the name tag, I would never have guessed it was Mr. Turner's sig at all :D

I know I had the same conundrum, in the end I just folded it in half as thats what would have happened if it came normally

I guess that happens when you have to sign hundreds of cards in one go :D

I know, right?! It's perhaps no A-Side tune but it's just as great as lots of other stuff they've released as non-album tracks.

Makes me wonder (again) if at some point we will also see Problem/Question, Animal Track, that morning wood song ( :D ) or Here Comes The Drums as studio releases. Still high hopes for Disc 2 of Singles 04-24 (or at least one behind the couch track on B-Sides vol.2).
