    What can I say - the UPS guy was just here. Hubs allowed me to open the box... I did not know the weight or when it would arrive, so it was a complete mystery :smile:

    All I can say is Tenclub has outdone themselves with this one for me. Guys, if you can read this - WELL DONE. You cannot believe how excited and happy we are to have gotten this chance. image

    Today to me definitely felt like christmas and birthday together. The fact that I tried to get work done the whole day too did not make it easier :lol: I feel so lucky and am so grateful. I did not expect anything special to happen when I got up and this day has turned into something that I will never ever forget :blush:

    I wish someone would've took video of you opening your MV package. I/we, would've loved to have seen your reaction while you were opening it and seeing that it was a BENNY!!>But, i/we can only imagine you were losing your mind>LOL!!

    CONGRATS again to you and CAV.

    I did record a video. It is on fb lol I squeaked quite a bit. It was a major rush, I can tell you that. I did not expect the mailman to come. I was just talking to somebody about it. Then I heard a car in the driveway, a door closing. I though "could this be..." Then I opened the door and there the box was. And it was a huge cardboard box, like the Vault ones. I called Cav to tell him that we got something. He said OPEN IT! So I did. Hahaha I could not believe it. I still can't.

    Holy shit , so many posts to read!!!

    Congrats on the Benny , although i gotta be a bit honest and say its one hell of a coincidence. I hope all the good stuff doesnt go to "celebrity" users on the forum (Dimitris for once since his package seems to be one of the heaviest) , that and the non-us fans getting screwed out of rare LPs because they dont have tracking. but as i said its one hell of a coincidence and if it´s true they rigged the all damn thing which is a shame , as someone stated maybe i´ll start a lost dogs or RVM re-issue threat and get lucky

    Still waiting paciently for mine , it will take a few weeks still :)

    yeah im not taking away her happiness , god i would be beyond happy if i got a Lost dogs , RVM , Sevens box hell even a backpsacer from this mystery vinyl sale to be honest but as i stated its one hell of a coincidence thats all. when all is set and done and every package arrive i´ll give my opinion but up to this point i have this very strange feeling that non-us will get screwed out of rare LP´s just because it cant be tracked and all the awesome packs that have been appearing in the US(yeah there were shitty ones also but the percentage of good and bad is huge so far)...lets wait then

    If it turns out all the decent pieces have been kept in the U.S, they should've just opened it up to U.S residents only.

    Obviously we'll have to reserve judgement until overseas packages start arriving.

    While I am very happy for anyone receiving exactly the vinyl they were wishing for, I wonder about the legality. I can't remember if the sale was billed as a lottery or the word random was used (I can't find the full announcement anymore), but if it wasn't truly a 'mystery' package but instead a chance to get incredibly loyal fans the thing they want most, is that really the way it should work? Is it legal? I did not participate as I had to work.

    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!!!!

    My package was just was 15 minutes from my house yesterday and this morning it is now 4 hours from my house. I guess there is a reason for the way they do these, but damn it doesn't make sense some times. So I guess mine was supposed to be here today, so now maybe tomorrow or the next day.
