Anyone here own Romavarium?

[The Letter M]

If so, what was the packaging like when you received it? I'm trying to get a copy of this, but I just want to know how it was sent/presented when shipped from the fanclubs to the fans.

Also, what's the quality like on the DVD? Worth looking to get, or should I just pass?

Thanks for any and all help, guys!

Representing!

I got a clear plastic slipcase, with the CD inside, the booklet, and the back of the tray. Everything except the jewel case, in short - understandably, 'cause they easily break in the post, and it'd make it a heavier package.

DVD quality was good! Surprisingly good, actually. Very impressive. About as good as the Ytsejam Bootlegs, which I wasn't expecting from a fan club CD. It's very listenable. Not perfect, but not too far off the Chaos in Motion level. Slightly better than A Walk Beside the Band.

Marc..GET IT! Stop asking questions. I saw your DT side projects list!  I'm amazed you don't have this already!

It came with a cover with some notes and pictures. Also a very nice back tray insert. The video is very cool, not like watching Score, but very cool. It's the same footage that was used for the Rome portion of the A Walk Beside The Band FC DVD. I suppose you could youtube it to check the quality.
I actually had someone rip the audio for me, as it makes a great live CD. I mean you get soundboard audio/live video of tracks like These Walls, Never Enough, and a non orchestral version of 8V.

Yeah. I think of Score as the event show with the bells and whistles, but Romavarium's the tour souvenir.

Okay, cool! The seller states that he's got a copy that comes in "its original plastic sleeve, as distributed by the fan club", so I'm hoping this is what he means. I guess I'll have to ask if the booklet and tray-insert are included, which I'm hoping they are as he replied to a question of mine saying it comes sealed as it was sent to the fans.

I've seen some of the video online before and I agree it does look pretty good!

LOL Yeah, I'm slowly working on getting the DTIFC stuff, as well as the officially released DT singles (beefing up my DT collection). I actually had a friend (fellow fan met online) do the same thing with the audio, and it IS pretty good audio.

Thanks for your input, guys! I truly appreciate it!

Yeah VUK always ship without jewel cases as they are bulky and add significantly to shipping costs, so you'll be getting it as the rest of us do.
