Same here.... I received a delay email at 1:00 am, followed by a shipping email at 5:00am (with a tracking link). and just as i was checking the tracking link 30 minutes ago, the UPS van arrived with my box... hahaha, awesome!
The SDE finally arrived at Mexico. At least the nightmare is over and I can now re-enjoy Vs and Vitalogy this weekened

Got my shipping number yesterday, and wouldn't you know, USPS should be delivering it today here in KC, MO.
Just observations; DHL didn't get it until 5 business days after my email from 10c, with a status of "PICKED UP BY SHIPPING PARTNER". (Does that mean another courier took it from 10c to DHL, because that'd make 3 couriers involved in this shipping?) DHL had it for 3 days and shows it was handed off to USPS yesterday.
That's some pretty crazy shipping exchanges. It reminds me of working for my grandfather's courier service 15 years ago, where we'd handle some specialized packages that would take crazy routes. I got to deliver what I assume was a Super Betamax tape to the Hanson residence, in the late 90s. Yes, the band "Hanson", right in their hayday.
Same here, got shipping notice this afternoon. It's just typical that I'm away till Wednesday so I'll have to wait till then to spin the vinyl. Ah well, at least the wait is almost over.
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."

This might be a stupid question, but what happens if UPS shows up at your door and you are not home? :? Do you have to go and pick it up at the local post office or do they come back the next day or...

they leave u a note and u pick it up at their offices
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
I also received the e-mail that it has been shipped from Sweden and there was a link to the UPS site where I can track the package so I don't understand why the people at MyPlay Direct told that it's shipped with Swedish post and they don't have tracking (according to the e-mails posted in this thread by other members).
I manage to track the package on UPS site and it's now in Malmo, in southern Sweden and it's scheduled to arrive on Monday... Looking forward to receiving the package...
Just got word from my wife that I got my 10c shipment at home. I ordered the standard edition. Even though i live about 20 minutes away from 10c headquarters, the 10 days of waiting have given way to 3 days of listening to these disc as if it were the first time again. VS., Vitaology and some beers, what a great weekend

That was the weird thing for me. Because i only received the shipping notice yesterday, i thought it would take a week to get here. But when i clicked on the tracking link, it said they had delivered it and left it at the "side door"...........which i don't have. So i had to walk all around the house hunting it down and eventually found it. They just left it outside. Thank fuck it didn't rain!!! Also in the tracking link, they left a proof of delivery notice, which i thought would be something that someone signed. All it said on there was that they delivered it. How is that proof? hahahaha
i receive this mail this morning...from sony...that the order will delay till 11th april....
guess what..i just receive my box from ups just now...... ..and no taxis extra paid..120euros + shipping,.from sweden
those guys dont know what they doing..
It proves I was really unlucky. But they could have done something concerning the VAT, that's what really upsets me. :(
Anyway. I learnt that Francoise purchased it after I told her what happened to me. And guess what? She saw that UPS was to deliver it on Monday.
I'm divided on whether to be happy about the surprise she made me or to be angry about the way Sony delt with the situation.
The package should go to towards North East (Turku), not South-West (Koeln)!! I wonder how many airports in Europe this package will go to before arriving to my home in Turku, Finland on Monday? Maybe Malmo-Stockholm-Turku would have been a better alternative than a trip to central Europe? Will see where it's heading next...

Too bad UPS doesn't do deliveries with the Express Saver on weekends if I understood the different delivery options correctly at their site.
hey everyone! been on the road for the last 3 months but, im finally back where i belong, with the freaks on the boards. missed you all but lets get down to business, how is everyone enjoying/finding the new boxset? are deliveries working out better than the loxl boxset?
i receive this mail this morning...from sony...that the order will delay till 11th april....
guess what..i just receive my box from ups just now...... ..and no taxis extra paid..120euros + shipping,.from sweden

I still intend to complain - they're still sending me mails saying that the package is being delivered by Swedish post, yet I have a UPS tracking number...
However, their email this morning told me that there is no phone number to call, no physical address to write to, and they are unable to give me a contact email for a manager.
People get over it. So they named the wrong carrier. At least you got a tracking number and your package will be there within a couple days according to your tracking number. Many others weren't so fortunate.
