Just found out by doing a little research is the Ten reissue is just a repress of one of same cuts they replaced in the later EU Ten/ Redux lp pressings. ... again.. what a haphazardly thrown together box of pressings.

Give them a break. They’ve only had a decade to plan and capitalize on the resurgence of vinyl.

Lol, I know. I'm sorry

I had a chance to pull the trigger and I hesitated. would have loved to have a box for all of my albums, but I was concerned about the cost. Fun to see everyone getting excited about their deliveries. I am excited to complete the album releases with these latest reissues. Cool product and I have some hesitation regret, but that's  pretty normal for me.

I think the fact remains that this set was a nice way to receive all the studio albums, whether re-release or original as in the case of Backspacer and Lightning Bolt, in one nice complete package.  

The Limited available with the content as a whole, as with the numbered COA included, isn't something for the vinyl audiophile per se.....but more for the vinyl collector "completeist".

I don't believe this is a set that will rival the Benny in terms of rarity or price, but I'm very glad to be getting it nonetheless.

Agree, it was sold for the newbie with no studio vinyl, and collectors that bought it as a paper weight.

What happens when the band releases a new album next year?

Man I feel like they should have put some information out on these so people could know what they were getting.  I didn’t get one but i kinda think I’d be unhappy if I did.

I wouldn't say I am unhappy, but I am disappointed in the way the box was thrown together. I would rather of had them just sell the box so people could fill them up with reissues and the readily available other releases. Would have been MUCH cheaper for fans to have the collection. Selling it as Limited, imo was their way to get rid of a bunch of already available releases. C'mon to be honest they sold 500 more copies of Yield & No Code Reissues, Backspacer and Lightning Bolt to a majority of fans who already had the EXACT copies.

For this thing to be known as their Studio Album Boxset is an injustice to the music. Like I have said before, maybe Sony will properly release a boxset sometime in the future.

Well it rivals the Benny in rarity, 500 (or 600?) vs 2000. but that rarity won't translate into crazy dollar amounts like the Benny has.

Thats exactly what I thought when I saw it listed. I saw it with time to buy it, and laughed at the idea of trying to dump 10 copies of vinyl on people who most likely already have 8, 9 or even all 10. Then was even more shocked when it sold out and thought for weeks I must be missing something.
Nope.

It’s not even in the same conversation as a Benny because the content on the Benny package is tough to find, these albums are all readily available.

Tax should have been $55 so they charged you $82 in fees?  That seems wrong their website shows it should only be $56? https://www.ups.com/ca/en/shipping/zones-and-rates/customs-clearance.page

I'm still trying to figure out what the extra cost was for?!?

both well said. this will be the first "limited" box set arriving unsealed. some lps sealed, some not. more than double the price on the 10 box and vs/vitalogy. they had some heft...that was a box set! all in all, has been the most intriguing offering to date!
