    To open or not to open. Anybody get this and not plan on opening it? I got mine, but I am still trying to decide on whether to open it or not. Anyone else having trouble trying to decide? I still have the "Ten" Deluxe set sealed too.

    Let's hope Santos was right.....though I gotta say, it's still a sad day that it takes THIS LONG to get something to Canada...all my other 10C stuff has come fast, and without extra charges, so I must admist that this is a new situation for me when dealing with 10C, but still....the optics of this whole thing are brutal from a fan's perspective.

    Actually its pretty common when you order from the 10c to Canada. I've been ordering from the 10c for years. Whenever you order something that gets mass shipped. IE a new record/cd/fan club single etc... Something they have to simutaneously mail out a megaload of copies, they seem to use some wierd super slow method of distrubtion. If you order something normal off the website (like a shirt or a cd thats been out a while) they ship it themselves via USPS and it arrives in two weeks flat like anything else from the US does. Whatever methods they used to the bulk shipping is pretty bad, I'd almost prefer they just dump it in the mail regular usps.

    Toys are meant to be played by a kid. But go ahead and leave ´em sealed and sell it 30 years from now and receive a complain about Vitalogy vinyl # 2 missing. See what you can do to resolve such a situation.

    Yeah! I saw that too. :(

    Isn't it in the box, between the pictures and stuff?

    You must be f*ckin kiddin'!!! You have a strange hobby in buying expensive items to be held on the bookshelf and in that way decorate your home... Remember that this band called Pearl Jam plays reaally good music and the music they play is presented on those vinyl records, cd:s and dvd:s in those big black expensive boxes.

    P.S. Remember that you will need a turntable to play the vinyl records, a dvd-player to play the cd:s and dvd:s, an amplifier (or receiver) and a pair of speakers or headphones in order to hear the music, but you might already own all of those (don't know if you use them)... Now open the boxes and SPIN THE BLACK CIRCLE for cryin' out loud!!

    I agree. I just got mine yesterday. There is no way I'm going to leave it wrapped up for display gathering dust without looking at it. Half of the fun is listening to the records or CDs while going through each page and viewing each item. Not to mention smelling the fresh brand new goodness. Do yourself a favor and :shock: open it.
    I bought the Ten box last year at a local indie record store and it is awesome as well. Open those and be amazed.

    ok now this is odd. My SDE boxset arrived on monday morning (they dispatched it on friday i think) i ordered it on the first day so i got it for the cheaper price. Ive just checked my bank online and the money hasnt been taken out of my account at all??!!! I paid with my visa card (not paypal) and im sure that with credit/debit cards they arent meant to charge you until it dispatches which was on friday...... :? :shock: it kinda looks as if ive not been charged at all???? Anyone else had this happen? Have i been stupidly lucky and not been charged or will it come out in the next few days??
    I'm not saying stupidity should be a capital offence, but what say we take the safety labels off everything and let nature run it's course?

    My only issue with these box sets is how easily fingerprints and dust show up on the outer box material. It does not come off easily either.
    Anyone else notice this.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    My credit card got charged the day after I received it and not on the day they shipped it. So it still might come out. I guess :-).

    Couldn't be more thrilled! The set is beautiful and I live for a textured Vitalogy! One future request, please please package No Code alone. There is something so special and perfect about that record and it deserves its own special little packaging. I can't wait for it!
    In the meantime, there's Orpheum to hold me over...best Sonic Reducer ever.

    The box finally arrived and I'm happy with it :D
    But this was clearly not a first-come-first-served service :problem:

    The No Code cd/lp boxes were very special back then, so it would indeed be nice if they make it a very very very special one this time. :)

    Lol, just got the Vs/Vitalogy box and already thinking about the next one :lol:

    I wish I had lots of PJ stuff still wrapped up in plastic.

    I could sell it all, and then pay for my travel to Alpine Valley.

    IF, as a Hypothetical question, I had the Australian National Highway Road Sign that reads,
    "PJ
    10"

    How much is THAT worth?
    and if 'they' replace the signs once a month, I can take ORDERS!! :D

    Finally arrived in Canada but won't be able to get it until tomorrow on top of the $40 USD I paid for shipping there is a $26.74 COD charge and they only take cash which I never keep on me. Its going to be a long 24 hours knowing its 5 minutes away from my house and I can't listen to it
