How many people, who bought all of the 2008 bootlegs before the release of the Box set, are purchasing the box? Doesn't $20 seem a little steep for a box?

    Been waiting for 10c to announce that they are sending out a box to all of us that previously paid up front for all the boots. Probably be waiting a long time.

    gonna buy it, just waiting to get some $$ together to order the deluxe and some shirts...

    I think that would be awesome, if they sent a box to those who had already purchased all 13 boots. Given that if you tally it up, buying the 13 boots individually costs more than the box set. Then spending $20 extra on the box...

    I ordered and received all the bootlegs prior to the box. So I had to also get the box separately after the fact.

    Yeah, the official stats are, if you waited for the box set you paid $200
    If you bought all 13 boots seperatly you paid $220.74
    Then if you add the box to that you ended up paying $240.74 for what they are now selling for $200.
    I was very disappointed in that. I would have liked either better communication about the possibility of a box set or for the box set to be priced at $240.74. But it is 10C, so you never know what is going to happen.
    The reason I am disappointed is that I paid $240.74. But I also got 5 more months of bootleg enjoyment for my $40.74.
    There's no need to say goodbye

    i picked it up last month, and glad i did. i only own 2 '08 boots, but a good amount from 2000 and a few from 2003, so i basically put my 10 favorite shows in the box to keep separate from the rest. it looks pretty good on display too.

    I want that damn box and the set. But I have so much PJ shit and boots that I just can't justify it. I prob would even listen to them much. I just want them cuz I have so much other stuff. Uggh.

    This would be great. Heck even if I just had to pay shipping of $5 or something. $20 is just too much on top of what I already paid for the set individually. Especially with a tour on the horizon, when I need to be saving all I can.

    I bought all 13 bootlegs last summer when they went on sale. I sucked it up and bought the box because it is cool but wish they had sold the box set last summer...could have saved me some money...but oh well... :)
