    Just got this from nugs :
    I've confirmed on our in-house copy that this is the case, and we are already in contact with the manufacturer. We will be sending replacements to everyone who ordered a box set, so there is no need for each customer to reach out individually. Again, I don't have an exact ETA just yet but the replacements are in the works.

    Shame that quality control only takes place once the product is in the customer's hand.

    So it looks like they are going to send a new VA disc 2 to everybody. I had emailed them about my Charlotte sleeve being messed up and here is what I just received back...

    What is the error in the Charlotte sleeve? Sarah from Nugs is asking me.

    The label was put on wrong (more of it on the back then the front) so when it is in the box, the spine is blank (when it is really just rotated around to the back). The Portland show was the same way (not as bad) but I wasn't at that show so I don't care as much.

    My labels are like that too. Really messed up, though. I need to pull them out to see what show it is. I don't think I'll complain, though. As long as the CDs work I'm happy.

    I've been fortunate enough to see Pearl Jam live.

    I am hanging in the balance of a perfect finished plan

    I have that issue with my Buffalo sleeve not being readable from the spine. I asked for a replacement.

    Good to hear they are rectifying it and not cheaping out while doing it...

    For those who have played some of these CD's so far, the bottoms are silver, but are the tops properly painted or do they have the same look/feel as the made to order individuals that look like they went through a home printer?

    Just ordered mine 2 days ago, and got shipping notice today. Guessing I will have the same problems that others had with the Charlotte disc?

    If so ... why would they continue shipping these sets if they know there is a messed up show. Why not wait until its fixed?

    I suppose the other line of thinking is if you know there is an error with the product why not wait til it is fixed and then order it?

    I placed my order Tuesday night. The mistake was posted here on Wednesday. I just now received my shipping notification, too. I also tried to be proactive and email them yesterday saying "I know there is an error with one of the Charlottesville discs. If you have not yet shipped my order, I have no problem waiting for you guys to replace the CD and then shipping it. That way neither end has to deal with replacement issues."

    I didn't hear back from them.

    Why would you want to wait? You'll have 24 other shows + 2 discs to listen to while you're waiting for the replacement.
    I escaped it...a life wasted...I'm never going back again

    the box after all this wait is certainly not as "cool" as they described
    kind of boring
    the shows are awesome though

    I take it this has not arrived outside the USA but do Nugs put a value on the packaging for USA orders? If so what value was declared?

    For those of us who did buy the CD Box Set, Nugs sent us an email to download all 25 show's via MP3 for free. And for those collectors like myself that have already downloaded the Flac & Flac-HD of each show, we don't mind the wait but would like to receive an email from Nugs directly about the error and replacement of the Charlottesville CD. Especially those outside the USA, where we won't get to see these box set's for another month or so.

    Nothing yet. I wonder to how much the value was put on the custom form. Hopefully Canada Post won't ask for too much @ the door.

    I ordered the 2010 box a month ago and when it came to me in Canada it only had a $15 value or something low like that
    Should be good
