Obviously not. You're crying because you're not the first one to receive the boxset! It was probably a sad day for you when you have read the tour begin in Paris. J'hallucine... Edited by user 03 November 2015 17:55:10(UTC)

J'hallucine... Eh? Not at all. I'm going to 3 out of the 4 EU tour dates and very much looking forward to them as it gets me off this dreary island for a bit  the only thing I'm "crying" about is not having enough annual leave to do the Paris gig because I'm very fond of that city. Plus seeing the kick off night of a tour is always special. C'est la vie. My suggestion was if Mute was going to dispatch to different countries a week or two apart then they should maybe include the download code in the e-mail receipt so all fans who spent the cash can get to enjoy the content in advance of receiving their physical product. The box set itself is a curio, I'm sure it's lovely and all that but I'm mainly paying for the digital content which will realistically be getting far more plays than the actual vinyl. Anyway, I've managed to source a copy of the Extended Mixes from an extremely kind soul and so they'll be on heavy rotation today. What I heard of them on the way into work this morning was very promising indeed; Academic has the sequenced bassline pushed up in the mix and sounds incredible. Very pleased to finally have these. I was dubious when I first heard they'd be doing this but what a great idea... some of these tracks really benefit from being stretched out. Speak of the devil, my box set dispatch e-mail has just come through from the NO store... a 3 day lead time apparently but if I go to the Hermes site to track the parcel it says it doesn't exist

Well, I sent off a polite email to their customer service. I was reading the FAQ of the store and it said that "In most cases, your credit card will not be charged until the product is shipped". I was charged back on 9/25, so maybe I'm an exception to their rule? Anyways, I'm just anxious to get the box set....and *hoping* that I get a signed one!

I think the boxsets sent from the United States store were not autographed.

I'm paying the price of another box set only with UPS postage costs. It was very expensive.They could send by US mail without that the UPS service.

The photo was left in the comments on one of NO's posts on Facebook. Just had another look and it seems they are from Canada. Edited by user 04 November 2015 07:43:04(UTC)

I have had the email as well but the tracking number they have given me does not work. Let's hope it arrives when somebody is in!

I don't think the tracking nos. work until the courier has them scanned on their system. The NO store may have them as despatched on their system, but Hermes may scan them when they arrive at their depot for instance. This happened with the Restless 12". Nothing showed until early the following morning and suddenly it was out for delivery, and by about 11 am on the Thursday it was here, one day early. I'm hoping the same thing will happen. The CD was a different matter, as that was just sent in the post and ended up arriving late. Edited by user 04 November 2015 10:18:17(UTC)

Finally received a reply from the New Order Store Support and was advised that my order is currently processing and that once it ships from their warehouse, they'll send an email with tracking. *sigh*

I just got my confirmation of shipment today. Looks like the tracking number isn't showing up on UPS but that sometimes takes a day to show up in their system.

Do you lot get a digital download of the extended tracks along with the boxset? Hoping to stumble upon it on a torrent sometime in the future.

No chance of mine coming today it doesn't seem. There's hardly any details showing on the tracking system. Seems it's going to take an extra day this time round.

I got my confirmation last night. Did anyone else get upgraded shipping? I asked for ground shipping (7-10 days), but the tracking shows it will be here today.

I also selected ground shipping and I'll get it tomorrow, which is two days after getting shipment notification. So either ground is faster than originally though or they upgraded shipping.

Mine arrived today too, unsigned..... Given the strength of the colours used in the sleeve design, I was expecting the records to be a little less translucent........ Edited by user 06 November 2015 09:45:13(UTC)
