    Another thing, I vaguely recall... last time a mystery box sale was released a tour followed shortly after. Maybe they are just clearing out the warehouse to bring in merch for a tour next year.
    As soon as MB was announced I thought the same thing.  Clearing out old merch to prepare for a tour

    I’m interested in merch when there’s music being played and shows to see. I’ll wait until then before buying more stuff. Good luck to those who are in! 
    This^^^^^^ 

    Anything I would be willing to buy, I am to cheap to buy and the odds FAR to slim they would end up in a/my mystery box.

    Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) this is one of the only ways to secure one of those prints that are out of reach. We all have reasons why they are out of reach so why the hell not right? One of these times I’ll get lucky too.

    I appreciate your optimism. I think a lot of people share it. Unfortunately, a lot of people got clowned last time around.

    "Watch out for music. It should come with a health warning. It can be dangerous. It can make you feel so alive, so connected to the people around you, and connected to what you really are inside. And it can make you think that the world should, and could, be a much better place. And just occasionally, it can make you very, very happy." -Peter Gabriel

    Nope, glad I have finally got out of the merch game. Starting to sell some stuff, so nice. I think I'm just going to start collecting $100 bills instead of t-shirts and posters.

    At almost $200 USD/box including postage it's not a wise purchase.

    I absolutely love Mystery Boxes. 

    I have done PJ ones twice and EV once and the Mystery Poster.

    I think it is a lot of fun to watch the thread of what people get, it's just really fun. 

    That said, I don't have 100.00 for anything. In the past I would impulsively charge it, but I have debt to my eyeballs and what's coming in isn't covering what needs to be paid. So I won't be participating. (Weren't they cheaper before? Still wouldn't be buying .) 

    I will be watching the threads to see what people get though, that's the most exciting part. Good luck to those getting one!  Hope you get something cool and hope that your shirts fit!!!

    I ordered one, despite the cost to the UK. My last one was really good and I think the whole process is fun. Love seeing what everyone gets on here. I'll have to intercept the inevitable customs card so my Wife doesn't kill me!
