So early this morning my package made it to Orlando! That's only an hour away so I figured by Saturday maybe? Wellllll now it's heading toward Jacksonville 3 hrs away. So much for innovation .... Sights set on next week so it looks. This waiting really is driving me mad!!
I think it's "innovative" because somehow, they think UPS gets it there quicker..and by "there" I mean "somewhere in the vicinity of your address.
Mine was in SW Columbus on 4/28 from 3:59am to 1:33pm. It then went to Cincinnati. The original "estimated delivery date" was 4/28, but apparently that means "deliver to USPS for local delivery."

Seems wacky how it's run. Mine took six days to make it to Florida even. Now the usps part to deal with. I hope I get something cool! I don't own a lot of vinyl so fingers crossed!
Well, the anticipation alone has been worth the $50 + shipping! (Although I may walk back that statement if I get another black Backspacer...) Package was scheduled to arrive yesterday... Hopefully today? 2.12 lbs! C'mon Lost Dogs!!!!
Package arrived today. I was like a kid at Christmas before opening it. And not saying I called it, BUT........

Good luck Amantria, it's been a long process but so worth it. Here's hoping you get something that's on your wishlist!
You make me smile, with your smile. I know I razzed ya a couple years back on the reissue thread, and after seeing this little dream of yours come true, I can't help but feel totally stoked for you. Good job on the persistence. It paid off. Greatest album of all time in my books. You earned it. Kudos 10C for making this super fans dream come true. But seriously, what IS up with that blue benny on photobucket?? Perhaps just an edited color for effect? Regardless, Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeze you are awesome. The selfie screams happiness and joy. Have you been added to the official owners list??
Has anyone outside of North America received their package yet?

Thank you for the nice words! The blue one on my photobucket was something I did just for fun for the reissue thread. We were trying to think about what a reissue could look like I added myself to the owners list and I also deleted the Benny from my wantlist on discogs and added it to the collection there. That was a fun feeling This album is going to rock my world till the end of times. Getting that package felt like christmas and my birthday together and now, sadly, getting the mail will never be as exciting again Now all I want is for fellow fans and friends to get the same experience. I truly hope a reissue is in our cards at one point. This album is too too too too good to stay sealed and gather dust in the collector shelves!
Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue!

I had a 'missed delivery' card from the postman today. I went down to the post office on my lunch break full of anticipation only to be handed a small cd-sized package...
I forgot that I'd ordered Jesse Malin's "New York Before The War" a few weeks back as well. It's a really great album but after the initial heart-pounding rush of excitement it was a bit of a let down

Haha! I'm waiting for a book and a Superheaven CD/poster so I'll no doubt do the same.

Apparently, just one Benny in Canada, as far as I know.
