its in a lovely wooden box with a bear engraved in to the front, slidey off lid which has 6 7" records inside for your musical pleasure. Each record is nicely decorated to.

We picked up our boxset at the Newcastle gig last night. It's a fantastic package, absolute bargain at ?20! I want to know what the bear is saying though ... there's nothing in his speech bubble! Anyone got any ideas? Is he speechless? :)

Click on this link to see a piccy of it ... in case you don't want to spoil the surprise of buying it at a gig yourself!

Goes nicely with the "Chip Bailey Signature Model Cheesegrater and Whisk" ? 8)

i've been a big fan of my Killers hot fuss 7" vinyl box set for the last 6 months. i'm sure this will now get pride of place in my collection as it looks amazing.

and i get to listen to the album before the CD comes out. yay.

it's the polar bear from 'lost'. he was just about to tell us who "the others" were but the fox network silenced him :roll:

I got mine today in the post just before heading out to work - I didn't have a chance to have a proper look through it though, the covers looked great. Going to convert it to mp3 then put it on my mp3 player.

So I take it those of us who pre-ordered can expect to receive it in the next few days? Can't wait to see and hear it :D

We're still posting them out! We got a lot of pre-orders (which we forgot to charge postage for ) :( Plus the guy who normally does the postage is off on holiday so they are being sent but a bit slower than normal.

Don't worry its worth the wait!

You managed to charge me for postage! :)
(I'm sure I must have been one of the first)

Ah, just got an email to say mine's been sent :D Let's hope it doesn't get damaged in the post, at least they won't be able to try squeezing it through the letterbox!!

i was very pleased, i had ?30 left in my wallet when i went up to the stand, and i was thinking "it surely will be worth it" still haven't gotten a chance to play it tho, my record player is wrecked, afraid it'll do damage!!

is this artefact not being sent bubble-or-foam wrapped? whilst this is undoubtably a beautiful artefact, surely it's worth packing properly to ensure it doesn't get fucked in the post?

My box arrived broken, but I have been kindly sent a replacement, double wrapped this time and I'm glad to say that it arrived this morning in one piece (well, officially two) , whoo-hoo! :D

Off to see the Duke tonight in Sheffield 8)
