The first of my XL bags to arrive in the UK. Overall I'm pretty happy, nothing particularly special but the scarf will come in handy and I like the grey halloween shirt.
My other XL bags showed up in the UK today.
Not going to lie, I'm a bit gutted to get almost entirely identical contents in all 3 bags. All 4 shirts were the same and the special items - the 10c plate and scarf are also identical. The only minor variation was 1 pin different and a couple of the cancelled show stickers.
I know its random, but can't help but feel a sense of disappointment after weeks of anticipation...
Misery loves company. My (2) XL bags were identical to yours.
how are canadians getting their mystery bags with the strike still on? mine hasn't shipped yet.
I think some of the later bags went from UPS to a different carrier instead of USPS > Canada Post.
how bizarre. I got a notification of shipment the second I checked this thread.
You have an alternate carrier delivering? Lucky you, mine will be in customs for awhile by the looks of it. Something to look forward to in the new year
dunno. just says it's starting with UPS. And it's coming from Fontana California for some reason.
Extras - Dana Point snapback hat - 10C Plates (taken), Indiana plates, Minnesota plate (taken) - Pins (all taken) - Stickers (a few duplicates of 2020 remain)
Looking to trade for: “33” shirt or Ament gear, PJ20 hoodie in XXL, or other hoodies/jackets in XXL.
My 2lb WM bag finally arrived with some wonderful items. (I would have had my hermit crab sit for a photo, but he is hibernating.) Pretty happy about the bird shirt, since I got one in the last mystery box and it mysteriously disappeared. Thanks, Santos and co.
maybe Mike left it in Dana Point after Ohana? haha. A guy can dream.
Fender ships out of corona, CA… 53 miles from Fontana, CA… soo there’s a good possibility.
I'm not gonna get my hopes up, but that would be FUCKING INSANE
Hopes and dreams are a wonderful thing. The strat or autographed poster or Benny is mine, until it isn't. That is what makes this and this thread so much fun. Supposedly my bag arrives on Wednesday with my special item. Maybe the special item comes a week later, as has happened. The joy of all of this is about hopes and dreams.

You definitely have my sympathy.
i knew it was always likely there’d be some duplication - I mean I still have three baby brain posters from previous mystery sales - but I never for one moment thought I’d get three bags exactly the same. (Incidentally the tracking weights on these were different but the contents were not)
It’s a pretty bang average bag too. Hard to think each one is worth the $145 total they cost by the time international shipping and taxes are added.
I am not blaming anyone but myself and I feel a bit like a fool for getting overexcited and wasting my money.
That's the thing with the " bait" of benny, strat, posters. Then the volume of bags sold the ratio is wild. And add nothing showing up in Europe. It's very hard to swallow that amount of money. I'm with you on that

I had instant buyers remorse then looked at it like an overpriced lottery ticket for a vinyl, poster, or guitar. We all know most people end up with similar items, the kind they have thousands of tha couldn’t sell otherwise.

Imagine it's the strat and it’s going to Canada! As a fellow Canadian, I'm rooting for you.

This Canadian is rooting for you. It would be amazing if the Strat ended up in the hands of someone from the Great White North!
