GOT THE BOX

[mackro]

Mine is supposed to arrive on Monday, but that's estimated.  Unfortunately, our post office likes to leave large packages in front of our door for anyone walking by to take, so I had to pay for a Package Intercept to keep it at the post office for me to pick up -- and their hours are exactly my working hours.  I hope to get it on Friday, which will be the month anniversary of the Numero Group shipping label being created.

I wish Congress didn't defund USPS so much...

I'll get this box eventually.

Mine came on Friday. My kids were very intrigued by the awesome cover artwork.

Well mine arrived Thursday. I had to leave it packed being that we moved Friday. It was hard to resist opening it but I figured I had been waiting since last October. I could wait three more days. So as it happens sometimes, I had no help Friday morning and my fiance was at work. While moving the furniture solo was rough I was able to keep a vigilante eye on the box. It rode with me up front in the uhaul. So after a weekend of consolidating cardboard, egg painting and unpacking. This morning I finally opened it. I wanted it to be one of the last boxes I opened. I wanted to earn it. So only after getting the living room, kitchen and little boys room unpacked did I let myself open the box. It was glorious. The box is immaculate. Thank you Tom and Jon. It was worth the wait.

Can anyone weigh the set, still in the shipping box with CC tape, for me? Trying to work out a less expensive way to get one to the UK since from Numero it's almost as much as the set itself.

9 pounds +/-

My ladyfriend and I were about to leave to go visit her father and were going to be gone most of the day.  I knew from tracking that my package was out for delivery.  I had already gotten my paper mail in the mailbox and figured the mailman was doing packages last.  Luckily his truck was parked a couple houses down from me and I saw him returning to it.  I went out to him and got my package. Oh happy day!  I played Barry Dworkin for my ladyfriend on the car trip and she loved it.

Got my box yesterday! I simply cannot believe they only charged me $100 for this. What a beautiful package!

Did everyone that preordered this get thanked in the back of the book?  That's the only reason I can think of why my name is back there, if it even is me.

Not a complaint about anything that Numero or USPS have done, but, according to the tracking page, my order has been sat in UK Customs Clearance since 1:28pm on March 31.

I'd like to think there's a Customs officer who opened it up to check for drugs and has spent a week listening to as many of the discs as possible.

Got mine yesterday and it is awesome.

I wanted to share the inspiration for the USB drive design:


Also, the drive fits in a normal tape case for storage (sold separately):

Bless Numero Group and S&W for getting the box ready for delivery this past Monday for me.  It's quite a miracle after hearing the back story that I was able to get it as soon as I could.

Sadly, I have the Worst Post Office In The World... the postal worker for my neighborhood leaves packages on the front door without asking, which has made our block a magnet for thieves.. and the hours of my post office are 8am to 4pm Monday to Saturday... since I work 9-5am, and the line on Saturday is huge, this means i have to get up early on Saturday as my only chance to get any special packages.  This is a picture of my post office by the way. no joke - it's the Ballard Carrier Annex in Seattle:



Despite the premises, I look forward to getting my box Saturday morning!

If they're anything like Dutch customs you can expect another week and a nice sizable surcharge upon delivery.

The box was the first time I've ever heard Conventions, Inc. and I love Jon's energy in it, is this the one he said he shotgunned a beer before doing?

Thank you

Finally got it after tracking the slow, slow accent from Chicago to Toronto via the entire north east United States. All I can say is that it is the most amazing thing, greater than I could have ever imagined. Thanks Tom, Jon and Numero Group!

3 beers! Back before the great undrinking.
