Did anyone get it? Nobody unboxed it?

Is it too late to buy one?

What shipping method did you opt for?

I ordered a few days before the release date and went for Media Mail because I'm a cheap bastard, and I haven't heard anything other than the e-mails everyone got.  I realize mine is probably the one of the last ones to get shipped.  Just trying to get a gauge of when it might come.  Don't want it rained on!

I should have mine sometime between now and my death.

I live in Italy, and this morning I sent an email to Warner Artist asking for news about the delivery.

They answered me this (I translated it in english):

Same as you, i live in Italy and I've ordered it a few minutes after it get available, so I'm thinking about some logistic issues.

Would it be correct to say that most of the people who ordered the box set did not receive it yet?

I live in the SW United States and haven't received mine yet.  I ordered with expedited shipping and got the email saying my order was "complete" so I'm hoping I see it later today.

mine is little different:

Many thanks for your email.
 
I can confirm that we have received your order but unfortunately we are currently awaiting stock of this item A DRAMATIC TURN OF EVENTS LIMITED EDITION BOXSET from the supplier. Due to the lag in time between an order being placed on the site and the items being marked for dispatch at the warehouse (which updates the stock amount available to order on the store), occasionally orders can be taken on the store when no stock is available to process your order immediately - we have to order more stock from a supplier before we can send it to you.
 
The stock is due in next week and as soon as it arrives, we’ll get your order out to you. Sorry about this.

Obviously is laughable, because my  order was the number 9 so is one of the earlier, maybe they are shipping first in the USA and then in Europe

USA users are receiving it now, so I suppose that we'll get the box set after a couple of weeks from now.

I´m from Spain. My order was "complete" a few days ago too, but i don´t know exactly what it means. I mean, allright, it´s supposed to mean it´s all ok and done, but did they sent it? I hope it will arrive next week.

I´m trying not to listen to the album too much because I´d like to listen to it with the lyrics, looking to the cover... and it´s hard to wait!!!

Got mine today. It's beautiful! I made a video of me unboxing it but it's relatively boring. Just know that it's very cool. No ticket, though. ;)

I'll post pictures of mine. The box itself is WAY better quality than BC&SL. Also, a completely different CD case!! I think so.
