The website states that "All orders shipping from the E.U. will ship via UPS Express Saver. We'll e-mail you shipping details and a tracking number (where applicable) on the day your order ships." and "Each of our stores ships all of its products either from the EU, or from the US, but not both."

It makes me think that they'll ship from within EU so you won't have any customs worries, for sure.

Why would we pay VAT twice ???!
To me it's pretty clearcut now : they forgot it yesterday, they added it today and that's about it. We have to pay VAT. We won't pay it twice. That's it. The only question that remains is whether those who ordered it when it said VAT = 0 will still end up paying it and therefore will end up being charged more than the total amount they agreed to when placing their order in the first place.

CREDIT CARDS WILL BE CHARGED AT TIME OF PURCHASE

You're talking about US orders. For international orders, "When will my credit card be charged?
We will charge the full amount of your order when the item ships. If you pay via PayPal you will be charged the full amount when you place the order."

VAT =

or else, maybe VAT = Value Added Tax.

And not an explanatory note in sight still...

That's really not good enough. Sure folk
Make mistakes but most people don't try to correct it and hope no one notices...

Still why the price difference between the USA and the world without vat? Or has that been cleared up now?

I don't know about the UK, but in NZ lots of things cost more than they do in the US or UK etc. Why is that? Who knows! All I know is that this boxset is going to cost USD$45 more than the Ten box set and that sucks!

This feels so premature.....wouldn't it have been much more fun for all involved (not that I think the band is much involved in these releases... :? ) ifwe were celebrating the albums reaching 20, one by one, instead of the year 91......hard to fathom, but there exist TenClubbers (terrible word, sounds like a seal clubber....;) ) that due to being born in, let's say..1989 didn't really connect all that much with Ed in the light mast in '92, but some random year thereafter....

My puberty and Ten where pretty synchronized, so by all means...1991 is a year to celebrate, but yeah....feels a bit pointless....should have kept to just printing the vinyl re-masters.....

My two cents, never to be seen again, I gather

A$242 delivered to Australia... killer! Still bought it, but fuuuuck!

Probably get the Deluxe version. No real point of getting the Super Deluxe.

I ordered the Super Deluxe but I do have my doubts whether it's worth the money, my only justification being that I won't be going to the weekend festival thing and the fact that the band does not tour this part of the world (Asia) and I have basically missed the last 2 tours in Australia, so all that money is now going into this box.

That said it's great that they are putting out 6 variations of the reissue so you can choose what you want and how much you want to spend. I know it probably still won't please everyone but these things never will. The only concession is that there's enough stuff on the net / out in the ether that if you really want to get it, there's a means to, just that it's not an official release.

My only real gripe, if you will (and it's really not I guess having had a day to digest it) - the lack of a DVD in the re-release. There has to be a TON of good footage, likely pro shot, from that era that we have never seen and that exists that could have been included in the box or properly presented footage of stuff that is doing the rounds on Youtube (eg: the Self Pollution footage or something that was filmed in 1995 that shall remain nameless).

But I'm still fine that we don't have any DVD in the box as, like I said, if you want to see some of that stuff, you can probably find it on the net or by some other means (ok ok, so it won't be the nice pro shot version but a LOT of it does exist in people's collections). I *think* also, they may be holding onto some of this stuff to give Cameron Crowe first dibs on it for the PJ20 doc so we'll hopefully still see some of this soon, the fact that maybe some of this stuff is just not release quality (much like the reason why they can't justify putting the other 6 songs on for the Boston show releasr) or for legal reasons due to their previous contract with Sony or - here's the pipe dream - maybe they will do something like the Neil Young Archive project and release a MASSIVE BOX, Blu-Ray with all the trimmings, so that we will somehow finally get access to "The Vault" and most or all of this stuff (in whatever form it comes in) for those who want it and want to pay for it, will be there. Maybe, just maybe.....

All that said, I'm still looking forward to the Super Deluxe and whatever else is coming this year from the band.
