Mine has just arrived.

I'm glad the box is cardboard this time, rather than that dust attracting covering on the Black Clouds one. I share more people's disappointment with the litho, I've also noticed it's not numbered like the last one :(

One thing it has over the Black Clouds one though is the full vinyl case. The Black Clouds just had the sleeves, no outer cardboard case.

All said and done I think the Black Clouds one was better, but the stems are a massive swing in that direction.

I got mine today, perfect condition, no ticket for life... and two litho prints!

That was to make up for it not being as good as the BC&SL one!  :smiley:

Frankly, the litho print seems... well, not as great as I expected.... I like the vinyls presentation a lot, a love the artwork, but lithos should be... better.  :sad:

Finally got mine. Box has been opened and taped again, was fairly beaten up, usual post services stuff. No ticket for life inside, which makes me wonder if this is connected to the box state. Well, shit happens.

I have to say that like others above I am not really happy with the quality of the whole thing (cardboards and all), but I bought it as a gesture of respect to the band anyway.
