My limited-edition copy of Ommadawn arrived today, August 5, 2010, in perfect conditions, with a good packaging and a shitty signature on the framed pic ("Mi ldf"... he really could've done much better than that, IMHO!! ) But the funniest thing is that 2 weeks ago I asked Universal for a refund (because, unlike some other people here, I care much more about the money I spend than I do care about owning those super-deluxe, vinyl+2CD+DVD, "personally-signed-by-Mike-Oldfield", "individually numbered" Limited Editions) and I actually got the refund! And today I got the missing package as well... call me lucky. I'm not asking them if they want me to pay again, as I'm little short of money right now, so you may also call me thief.
Ah, by the way: HR: 166 of 250 Ommadawn [ordered a day later]: 50 of 250
P.S. To all of you out there: I've got a surplus of HR & Ommadawn Deluxe Edition sets (4 copies each). I'm seriously intentioned to sell them off. Please PM me for details.
LATER EDIT: I've just compared the signature on the framed pics with the properly signed certificate within the TB box. The sig on the pics is just Oldfield. What I mistakenly interpreted as a M was actually an O, and the dotted I belongs to Oldfield and not to Mike. It's the n-th confirmation that Mike O. has gotten terribly lazy since he moved to the Bahamas.
