mclz Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Media mail is an option if you do not want a shirt. At least it was for me when I faux checked out. it should be an option for anyone within the US but if you are having an issue please set up a support ticket. Chris and I will personally be packing a group of rare records when these start shipping. Thanks, I submitted the ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregor Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Ordered box #3 - last year's box was awesome, looking forward to this year's batch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xschurzix Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Shipping to Germany (one box) is 24$... To much for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamlikesmusic Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Is the Paypal button broken for anybody else? It just takes me to a blank page that says "ERROR: The page you are trying to access does not exist.". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shitty Rambo Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I'm guessing if you select M/M as shipping you won't get a shirt. Went for a #3 box. First time I've ever ordered a mystery-anything so I'm hoping I am surprised (positively). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfred Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 This is also the first time I've ordered a mystery anything. Grabbed #3 like most others. 12.55 to ship to Canada. Not bad, since that's about what I'd be paying for a single LP at Interpunk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueprintforjoy Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 thinking about trying for box #3 as i never do anything like this. what were last year's boxes like? worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviex2shoes Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 My last year box wasn't that great. It was basically the Polar Bear Club 7" w/screened b-side. Like 4 or 5 cds, some posters and stickers, and maybe the New found Glory Tip of the Ice berg 7". Not terrible but I was hoping for t-shirt since it said if you're an XXL you have a great chance of getting something, but I didn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oterecords Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 thinking about trying for box #3 as i never do anything like this. what were last year's boxes like? worth it? In my opinion the boxes last year were only worth it if you ordered all 3 boxes. Almost everyone got the same exact things between boxes and I don't remember anyone saying they got any tests or any rare records. But it seemed that people who ordered all 3 boxes got more stuff than each person who individually ordered the single package. I ended up with like 14 cd's, 5 lp's, 6 7"s (counting the 3 /500), a have heart shirt, 4 posters (12x18 ones), and a few stickers, and that inflatable mace. But I saw some people who ordered a single package get like 2 cd's, a 12" and 2 7"s and some stickers and that was their entire box. So for $50 after shipping it definitely wasn't a bad deal, and if you like a lot of the B9 roster then you'll probably get a bunch of stuff you like. I'm gonna try for all 3 again this year and hope for the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wear a large and I got a large have heart shirt so I was really surprised by that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamlikesmusic Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Two years ago, I got a copy of NFG's Tip of the Iceberg (2nd press, black/2500), a Death Before Dishonor CD, and an H2O flag. That led to me skipping last year's. But seeing as the 3 bands on Bridge 9 that I like are the 3 mentioned for option 3, I think it's a rather safe bet.

Snaggle Von Swift Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 was interested until I saw shipping was $14. oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pastepunk Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I bought #1. I wouldn't have done it without the 3 CDs guaranteed this year, I'll be curious to see if B9 writes anything up about total orders received compared to 2010. Regardless of 'value' of the final contents, I just like the entertaining waiting+mystery aspect, plus doing a write-up once received for Pastepunk.

diabretic Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I was really hoping for a Fans of that included defeater and polar bear club. Strongly considering the polar bear club box anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diabretic Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 The chances I sell everything in this box are pretty high. I'm hoping for some legit polar bear club stuff, but who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maneatingcow Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I love a good game of chance. Musical version of the Woot Bag of Crap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamlikesmusic Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I love a good game of chance. Musical version of the Woot Bag of Crap? But way easier to buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nico Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I enjoyed last years mystery box, despite receiving not something insanly cool, but the anticipation was great, but I can get myself to join in this year due low funds and not feeling anything for the bands discribed in the listing.
