Now I just hope it arrives in good condition, and if possible, before Christmas None of the Black Friday batches from LLL ever arrived late. I've been ordering every single year since 2010. As for the condition, it largely depends on the carriers. LLL usually stuff their packaging with ridiculous amount of bubblewrap. And many bigger deliveries are being shipped in boxes. So I would sweat too much. Should something go wrong they'll probably replace it for you. They're usually good like that. Karol Chewy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crumbs 14,300 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Yes, I've never had any damaged packages from LLL. Their packing is very good and secure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me on this. They all communicate with each other. Well duh. What are "order instructions" good for, otherwise? At the beginning (like, if I remember correctly, with Rosewood), I didn't write anything in the comments. Starting with A.I., I always ask them to package the CDs carefully. And since then the amount of bubblewrap has increased noticeably, and they now stick even one box set in a big carton, crammed with bubblewrap. And no more broken jewel cases!

Demodex 557 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 For those that frown on downloading copies, if it's not sold out then someone is getting it for me for Christmas. I still think it's not worth $100, and I bet there's a ton of music included that I never listen to (like all the extra stuff on the SW SE's). As far as packaging, it will just collect dust once I rip the CD's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
