It's probably too much to hope for but I'm hoping Mike's autogragh is personalised  :)

...too much hassle I suppose !?
:(

That would be perfect,but Mike is not the type of person who likes to do this that much...IMHO.

Well, I would imagine signing 500 dedicated signatures would be rather time consuming so I can't see this was ever a possibility. Maybe if it had been an edition limited to a mere 50 copies rather than 500 it might have been more feasible.

I'll just be chuffed to get a signed UE full stop, even if it's not personalised.  :cool:

I would have bought a signed edition if I could have got one, not sure how I managed to miss them looking at the times quoted on this thread as I was online at about from 6pm until 8pm on the Friday & never got a chance to buy one as site never showed any for sale.

Got the MO email yesterday & had a few goes at the game then hit the buy button, went to the site but thought too much to pay, then looked at Amazon & got The Ultimate at £62 which quite happy with.

There is only 1 vinyl LP in the set.
The rare BBC footage is the Second House programme, prevoiusly released on the Virgin 'Elements' DVD. The 'Whistle Test' promo is not on the set, even though it's printed on the DVD. It's not printed anywhere else.

Hello all
Has anybody's order status changed from pre-order, to dispatched, or anything of the sort on the signed ultimate edition? Just curious because from what i knew it was supposed to be sent out the week beginning the 8th...maybe I'm just too impatient  :laugh:

curiously, my order is still showing the same status as a few days ago too. Payment has been taken from my account though. So, if it's not here tomorrow or the very latest Wednesday, I shall be asking questions I think. By contrast the tee shirt arrived incredibly quickly...same company but may ofcourse be a different despatch from address...

it's adding to the anticipation & excitement I suppose... :/

Not mine !!!! :(

I'm rather annoyed about it ....My hopes and expectations were that at least for those like me who ordered on the evening of the 15th May that the ULt.Ed would be dispatched today and I would then have received mine tomorrow with paying £12 next day delivery charge ! esp. when they debited our bank accounts at order time rather than dispatch time !

I suppose I'm annoyed also because I never received a reply to my request regarding larger size T-Shirts !

:(

Looks like "the week beginnning June 8th" mean this week, not that date in particular - however waiting a little longer for a signed copy is worth it I suppose!

Very true...I'm just too impatient for my own good  :laugh:
Really can't wait...it would be great if it arrived on my birthday on Thursday ^^
