Woohoo! mine has arrived too, came home from work at lunchtime especially to see if it had arrived, but no. So rang the company and they couldn't have been more helpful and reassured me that it had been despatched.  Went back to work looking forward to Friday! Got home only to find a card saying it had been left with a neighbour - obviously after I had gone.

Thing is,it's here now & I am unable to open it! It is so gorgeous and I cannot believe I have it. It is sitting on my table and I just can't bring myself to tear the cellophane! Am I daft or what?!

I want to listen to it, but I cannot allow myself to open it...

I'll let you know what number I have if I can convince myself to look inside!

Very, very, very happy! :)

Number 430!

Break that cellophane Bee and really savour the next few minutes.  Then dim the lights, load your player, and enjoy.

For those who purchased the box outside the UK, here's a useful link:

http://www.docoja.com/blue....%3D&b=5

If it doesn't work, copy and paste
http://www.pushentertainment.com/283
into
http://www.docoja.com/blue/

It's not fair that only UK residents can access to the content of a EUROPEAN release.

Thanks leesonar and thanks crises1980!!!!!!!!! :) Great video, too bad people always use the camcorder microphone instead of a quality mic or boom.

Mine did turn up in the end, number 163. Website still shows preorder status 'cause it's useful like that.

I don't know. It's printed on the DVD label, but it's nowhere to be found. It's not a huge loss, though.

Mine arrived today, number 203, guess we should all have a list from 1 to 500 of who owns which one  :)

Remix sounds really good...can tell it wasn't re-recorded on old tin boxes

Loving the demo. Lovit. Many ideas in there that didn't make it to the final version. Sound quality is far better than I would've expected considering how it was recorded. I wonder how much postprocessing went into this.

On the amazon debacle...I think they will try to claw copies back from people who ordered multiple copies, to ensure those who ordered one copy will receive one, people who ordered multiple copies post here if your orders come incomplete, the trouble now is they have dispatched all of them, so any mistakes now cannot be ratified. :/

only 1 out from all has added their number to list...i think tubular net should make so called "offical" list of signed copy owners where you can submit your info.

Hey, what's this preoccupation with what number everyone's got! :D

How does the music sound?

Good call, Wiga.  That's exactly what I was thinking.  I've been having a bit of a chuckle observing the hysteria.

And on another note... call me old-fashioned, but an autograph doesn't mean squat unless it was done expressly for me.

:p

I got mine this morning.  After what I had read here, I was paranoid whether I would receive my signed copy at all. ;)
What still annoys me is the fact that the "exclusive" order is not really exclusive, only in terms of the extra money they took.  :(
Is there a chance we can do something about it?  I am not familiar with English law, but this seems to be not really legal to make extra money the way they did.  Has anyone decided on doing something about it?

I got caught up in the fun myself. Wanting to be one of a somehow lucky few purchasing a special rerelease of what to me is a very special album. I can imagine looking from the outside if I hadn't gotten caught up in the enthusiasm I would have the same view a you do and would also be chuckling!

To be honest I am disappointed that the 500 limited edition were only differentiated by a single bit of paper. No signing of the album or book, nothing else. If I had known that (and been thinking clearly the night it was released! ) I might well have just bought on Amazon.

Anyway, I've had fun and love my copy and that means I am happy  :)
