I'm going to miss all this box and package talk when these are all shipped out
me too. But I won't miss the anger and jealousy I feel after seeing other boxes as I can honestly say the box I got was crap. But still would buy another if they came up again.
The mystery to me is how did you get that Kong poster so flat so quickly just lying a couple CDs on top (and not even on the corner)? That's one magic Kong.
Yeah I noticed that too. Either that guy has a really good memory from reading show comments or searched the heck out of him.
Honestly wasn't that hard. First - there's no way one of those is showing up I'm a mystery box, and if you notice that pic the poster is way too flat without anything on the corner of it having just come out of a tube.
Then I clicked the guys name and the post I copied is like the 4th one down of his posts. I would never have remembered that or searched much further. The Internet and common sense are the only tools Shelock Holmes would
Here's a picture of my Mystery Box contents. It took me a little while to figure out how to post a picture here, sorry.
Post us a picture of both your Kongs together please.
I'm not interested in selling or trading any of the posters in this picture, or anything that was included in my mystery box. Please don't send me a message asking. None of it will ever go on Ebay either. I have a family and my kids are into Pearl Jam. They like the posters. One day they'll each have a part of my collection for their own homes to display or just keep to remember their dad.
These boxes have been awesome and there's no reason to believe the 10c isn't including great stuff in them. I took a picture of everything that was included in mine and posted it here. Some chose to believe I threw in the MSG print to cause a stir. It's in my picture because it was in the box. It seems like it's gotten popular now so hopefully some other people will find one as well. If you like PJ posters, you've seen there have been a lot of awesome prints arriving in homes. I think that's cool. That's part of the fun. I've been having fun following along and seeing what others have gotten.
Whoever posted my review of the MSG show- Thanks. I forgot I posted that. I read through it again and it brought back a lot of great memories. That show was the single greatest Pearl Jam experience I've ever had, and I was fortunate enough to share it with a great, great friend. I'll never forget it. The Donkey Kong poster marks that night- the band, the music, the people I experienced it with. To me, it's not about what people are paying for it. Maybe that's why the 10c sent me one. Whatever the reason, you can believe they are including it in mystery boxes.
Thanks again 10c.
The magic one on the left was in my mystery box.

Wowza, Lew is that you ?
Im sure this has to be the same More Coffee as BRY??
Man its been some time, hope all is well, and congrats on this excellent mystery box. Thrilled for you.
hope to reconnect soon when you have the time. Meeting Brian for the first time in 2 weeks
Well, it was good day in the AO253126 household: Superunknown super deluxe, Led Zeppelin III super deluxe and, the piece de resistance, ten club mystery box, all landed at my front door. I have to say, I'm genuinely happy with what I got in my mystery box and if I could, I'd gladly buy another.
That being said though, I'm not above trading away anything that interests anyone, except the "PJ guitar" patch from Wrigley and the Hail, Hail promo. I'll update the have/want spreadsheet as well.
I hear you about kids and posters. My daughter is four and already has four Pearl Jam prints (Wrigley Shuss, Boston II 2006 Ames, and both Brooklyns framed together) hanging in her room.
Wait a minute ... that's more than I have framed and hung for myself!
now that this has been ironed out... does anyone else have news of a delay from UPS due to a train derailment?
I got a message from UPS saying "a late UPS trailer arrival has caused a delay" But, the latest location as of today is at the UPS hub in my town - so I'm thinking I should be getting it today, which was the original plan.

Nice score! You got the hat and shirts I was hoping for. Other than that we almost got identical boxes.

I was scrolling really fast so I might have missed it, any apologies to More Coffee for calling him out unnecessarily? I think he just served the crow on a silver platter to those who did.

No apologies. I wasn't really calling anyone out. I was skeptical and been proven wrong (perhaps). Won't be the last time. Didn't mean to cause heartache. I don't believe in coincidences, and i'll stick with my cynicism. It has served me well. If it means I miss out on something, so be it. Better than being taken.
Anyway - as I said - congrats on the Kong. Quite frankly, I would have been more impressed if it has been a fake set up. That takes a lot of ingenuity and creativity. It's actually slightly disappointing that it was real. (and if the latest photo is a fake - all the more kudos. That would take a lot of effort that wouldn't really seem worth it, thus sealing the deal.).
And just for the record if this didn't make it clear enough - even if he had been fabricating it wouldn't have made me think he was lying or any less of a person. We don't even know each other, and I'd hardly think less of him if he went through the trouble of trying to punk us (again, I'd think it was pretty cool).
Either way, I don't think it effects Mr. C or my life one iota and I've returned the crow as if there's anyone to feed it to it's those that have questioned my motives as I wasn't questioning his.
Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

If you have a smartphone: take some pics, and then upload them to an image hosting site like flickr or imgur (create an account first). Image hosting sites let you create a;bums, but they also give you direct links (i.e. directly to the file you you have a link like http://www.imgur.com/ahd74hflke5.jpg). Once you have the direct file link, copy it to your clipboard and then when you write your post on the board, click on that little icon that looks like a picture (hovering over it says "image"). Paste the URL into the pop-up text box and you're all set.

For all my griping about my Mystery Box, I just wanted to give a big SHOUT OUT to SNH for sending me a bootleg as advertised, since my box was missing one. Thanks so much!
My wife let my daughter pick out one of her old shirts for an ersatz smock to wear during messy art projects at her preschool, and she picked the blue VFC patriot shirt.

I own the one on the left in brown, right in red.
Anybody get any Lightning Bolt promo singles? Wonder why these aren't in there?
