I got mine today!!! We got in 5 copies at the record store that I manage and all 5 sold! We buy direct from Bigger Pictures distributor and they are now sold out too. So if you have the chance to buy one, get it!

What do I think of it??? I absolutely love it! The packaging and selections are fantastic. Just finished the book and I'm getting ready to watch the DVD. What a great job by everyone involved putting this set together! Well worth it, in my opinion! Cheers!

It's #19 right now for Classic Rock items on Amazon U.S. It's almost Top 200. But gotta keep in mind this has been on pre-order for a while and for the cost of this that's actually really very good. This sounds like it's been a success!

I think it has been a great success sales wise. Maybe they will do a second print of 1000 or so. I'd still like to hear some more reviews.

I had ordered mine by amazon.com (cause it was a litle less expensive). It had been shipped the 28th and amazon give me the date for the 20th July.

It will be long :smack:

I got mine yesterday. I didn't have to sign for it either. Fed Ex just left it on the front steps. Glad I was home. The packaging is amazing. The whole desktop box with the hinges just makes this extra special. I am real pleased with the "yearbook" and all the prints. I wasn't too sure about how necessary the vinyl bootleg and the 45 were. But they're definitely cool now that I have them in my hands. It's going to take a while to get through this and have some sort of review. I like to listen to things a few times and let it marinate a little before I form an opinion. The packaging however is excellent. How many bands do something this cool?
