I don't quite understand how people who ordered a month after me already got theirs.


Is this a serious question? I'm no expert but I would expect staggered delivery based on the following facts:

All orders went out on 1 of 2 days. A variety of shipping options were used. People live in different places.

I highly doubt that postal/UPS processing takes order dates into account. As such, even with identical shipping options and shipping dates, I would imagine at least a 3 day difference between deliveries.

Did you not understand that all the orders were sent out at the same time, regardless of order date? Maybe that is the problem. Otherwise I just don't understand. Postal mail isn't email, there are delays associated with how far you live from a major hub, how many major hubs it must pass through, timing in terms of postal flights, etc.

I'm just saying, lol.

Woo hoo! It was just delivered to my desk! Ordered on 1/7 and received box #266.

The entire set is beautiful, I can't wait to get home and begin my journey.

Did you order by priority mail? Because I ordered it on 1/10 by parcel mail and did still not get it.

Yep, PRIORITY (2 - 3 Days). I figured what was $18 on top of the $300 I was already spending.

I have a few questions for you guys that got it...

1. Are the spectator's reaction shots edited for "language" as in the trailer?

2. Are the trailers included on the dvd's, as an easter egg or otherwise?

VERRRRY cool box. My opening it had nothing to do with smarts, just watching Indiana Jones films ( that's not a clue, I just think those films make you try things you might not have otherwise ).

I have to split, so I'll wait to watch disk one. I'm like a school kid on his birthday and just got something that I wanted badly, but didn't think it was possible to get.

I am deeply impressed with this whole experience.
I will be back eventually with my thoughts on the whole set, but for now I wanted to jump in and say how amazing this set really is.

I am in awe... and I am definitely not worthy....

Huge kudos to all involved with making this thing come together.
I've only watched 3 disc so far and I have easily got my money's worth just in entertainment and knowledge. I can't wait to give this stuff the time it deserves and then spring it on the real world!!

Well I recieved my set today I opened it checked it out and then had to come to work until 12 tonight Smile The box and everything looks GREAT! I ordered very early and got number 24 I believe. I will let you all know about the discs as soon as I get to watch them the nice thing is that I am off all day tomarrow so you know what I will be spending a lot of time doing. Thanks again to Paul and Jason whom I feel both have done a GREAT Job with everything!

I fell in love with Twilight Angels. Already ordered several refills.

So far I've found 19 of the Easter Eggs. I started a thread on the T11 forums for EE on TA for people to contribute their findings. Anywhere else anyone wants to suggest posting an Easter Egg Hunt thread for TA? I was going to start one in the TA forums, but they've yet to be opened. Have there been any updates on the TA forums?

1. Interesting question. I'm so absorbed in the material that I didn't notice if there were any bleeps (none that I can recall, but I'll keep my ears wider open).

2. Each of the discs opens with the trailer.

Well, I just got a shipping conformation from ellusionist, I will have my set on monday. Although I wish I had gotten it sooner, this works out for me, I am going to be out of town this weekend to go to a magic meeting, and will have a little something waiting for me when I get home. Cant wait, thanks to everyone who worked on this, and to those who have been putting up their thoughts and reviews, I'm glad you have been keeping them simple as to not let a lot out, the expierence of getting it will be that much greater now

Thank you Magiguy...I appreciate your answers and taking the time to do so. I ask the beeps questions because I heard a beeped f bomb on the trailer...I would rather hear the cuss words...but there are lots of different people in the world...
