crocodile 8,020 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 My box has a tiny manufacturing error on the silver lettering. In certain light it looks like a scratch. But it's not really and you won't notice it while looking at it casually. So I'm going to leave it as is. No point of being too dramatic over something this minor.

While the music is the main thing I hate it when such a deluxe item is damaged. They'll probably replace your case without any fuzz. A friend of mine is getting a replacement because his spine print on the box is very off centre. Apparently they're all a bit different, and usually not quite centred (mine's off a wee bit, but not so much that it bothers me), and his copy more so than most.

So, next time, you too should beg LLL to please please please please please package well The packaging itself was very good and most likely the damage to my box was done already before it was delivered to LLL from the manufacturing plant. But hopefully if they send a replacement it comes in as sturdy package as this original one. The jewel cases were in good condition. No missing teeth or cracked cases which further testifies how well the whole thing was packaged for shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And people are only really raising them in this case because it's a premium collector's item and there's a reasonable expectation to it to be in 'new' condition. Mikko's is definitely not If this were just another LE by any other composer I suspect a lot of scratched CDs would've gone unnoticed or unreported.

staccato 6 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I have nothing else to say like "So close, so far away". The package came very fast from my country capitol city Warsaw to my town Wrocław. The mailman today came to my flat and leave letters and postcards (most of them from Christmas) but no my lalaland package. He leave only a paper note which I must take with me and I have to go to the post office alone to collect my package. I'm working so in home I was about 3 pm. So I took papers and run to the post office. And here came the New Years Eve. The postal office today changed opening hours. They closed at 2pm. Damn I was so furious when I came to the place. Once again postal office destroyed my plans. Tomorrow they're closed. So I stuck with waiting till second (2) January when I will come back from work finally I will be able to take what's mine.

But larger bulk orders I usually around Black Friday get shipped to my aunts house in NY. Since it's holiday season in December, she brings them along when visiting us. This time MV made sure my LLL BF stuff got delivered urgently before Xmas. Here's all the stuff. Needless to say I save greatly on shipping and zero duties and customs. LoL.
