Did anyone else who got their box set get the promised "drummer audition dvd?".

I received mine yesterday, very nice packaging, though not as nice as their black clouds one.

The dvd is with the cd case, there is the normal cd, instrumental tracks and then the dvd.

No ticket for life though.......do we know of anyone who has found one?  :smiley:

Still waiting for my box (if it doesn't arrive today I will be really pissed)! **sarcasm on** Maybe they're "randomly" inserting the 50 Tickets for Life in the last 100 boxes before they go out of stock  :facepalm:.

Ok. I didn't know that there are other pockets in the CD case. I also have the CD/DVD combo that I bought at the day of the launch. The CD/DVD comes with a nice CD insert with lyrics on it. The one that came in the boxset does not have it.

IMO there shouldn't be anything that doesn't come with the box set that comes with the retail CD/DVD (lyrics, better jewel case or whatever) for the money paid.

actually the lyrics are printed on the vinyl sleeves. i still prefer the booklet type cd insert that came with the retail cd/dvd. well, one thing for sure is that mine is not in a "collectible' condition when i received it. though the boxset was nicely packaged during postage but it looks like that was already damaged prior to shipment. the custom box had a large crack.

and yeah, the litho print is not impressive at all.

oh well. i blame roadrunner. i believe DT will never rip us off.

Received mine. :D

Fortunately it came in perfect condition. Very cool looking package besides that the litho print looks really cheap. I'm looking forward to hearing the vinyl at my friend's place during next week and see how it compares against the CD.

I'm in the UK and I got mine today with everything that should be in it!

I was thinking of chasing it up while at work and it was there waiting for me when I got home :)

Mine didn't come yesterday  :-[. If it's not here Monday I'll have to contact support. For the ones that have received theirs in EU, how did it arrive (DHL, normal post, or other)? Thanks.

I got mine earlier in the week. The condition was immaculate, and I'm happy with everything. Except lack of golden ticket.

I'm sorry to hear no one here has gotten a "golden ticket" yet (I do kind of feel like Charlie in Willie Wonka!) but, I guess that one positive thing in mine being delayed is that my chances are that much better for getting one. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

Hey guys, received my Box-Set this morning. The packaging is perfect, not damaged at all. I've made a video of the unboxing, but it is in perfect sapnish; however, it proves that the Ticket For Life really EXISTS  :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0vhFZmIjvs

Now... I have a question about it. I have to mail roadrunner to validate my Ticket:

You MUST mail your winning ticket to the below address. Once received, with the above information, you will be mailed
a TICKET FOR LIFE pass.

They're talking about the ticket for life right? This one:

WOW! Congratulations!  :tup Now I'm definitely jealous (but in a good way if that makes sense). It actually looks like it is packaged pretty well for shipping. I was expecting less with the few reports of damaged goods (although some of those were apparently mishandled by the people packing them). 

Anyway congrats again. I hope there are still a few left out there.

Don't worry, mine was closed two weeks before I received my Box-Set.

Got mine this morning (In the UK) It is well worth the wait...but no ticket for life unfortunately.

Regarding 'order being closed' it's nothing to worry about as mine said the same thing.

Received it!! Without ticket for life but with some damages in the back of the box  >:(

Sent an email to see if I can get another one and send this one back. The litograph... is very poor, and I don't like that it doesn't have a booklet  :tdwn

It's not a very good edition... I'm a bit dissapointed  :-\
Sorry for my bad english!

Got home and checked mine... No ticket for life but there was an opening in the one corner big enough to get a hand in (I could actually get my whole arm in)... I know the chances are slim to none that anyone in the delivery chain would know what it was or what to look for (I didn't even know the ticket for life was just taped to the outside of the Box till yesterday) but still  ???.


Anyway, mine looks like it's in fine condition from the outside despite the condition of the packaging. It's supposed to be my Christmas present so I haven't taken the cellophane off yet but probably will just to make sure all is well in the Box.
