    I'm still on Cloud 9. I was smart (or geeky) enough to video the unboxing process, so I'm actually gonna upload that to YT and post the link here if anyone cares.

    Congrats!! I, too, received a LD yesterday! Not from the mystery sale, but it was a bit of a mystery nonetheless!

    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!!
    Its good to be back!!

    NO. Just Atlanta. I have both shows though.
    Being a Pearl Jam fan in the Southeast is tough. My 10C number is pretty bad because I quit the club for several years... It just didn't make sense to get primo tickets when they weren't playing within 400 miles of me and I didn't have the money for long road trips.

    Has there been an original Ten or Riot Act sighting yet?

    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."

    I think there's been 1-2 RA sightings. An original Ten would be nice, but since I already have the box set... now, a Coke bottle Ten... :smiley:

    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!

    Spinning the Benny right now.... I'm in heaven :smiley:

    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??

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