topshelfsquad Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 All orders that had JUST the box set left our office on Friday! So they should start showing up in mailboxes as early as today (if you live near our office) and hopefully throughout next week! The remaining orders that had something else as part of the order either went out on Friday as well (only a few) or will be going out on Monday. We packed 'em all extra safe so hopefully everything arrives in good shape. We also stashed two toe set lists from their North American tour into two random orders. And yes, the number /207 you'll get is completely random. The company shipped us 265 total boxes though, so IDK what we're gonna do with the other 58 of them. hippielauryn and ajismetal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd be good to keep around in case someone damages theirs in some way, or just use them as decorations around the office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacktownjim Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 I'm a goober and didn't pull the trigger on a box quickly enough. Will be keeping my eye out in case anyone feels like selling down the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raidenradio Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Sell the boxes. I have a complete Toe discography that needs a home. You could even hand number it "Loser/207" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batman Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 the only thing about that is that if it was known that the boxes would have been available separately, a lot of people (including myself) would have just bought the /100 variant of all of these (and had them way sooner) and then bought a box. doesn't really work out.

Guest deleted Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Would love a shot at piecing together my very own box set. It would encourage me to buy the last couple of Toe releases I need too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this, completely. I wouldn't have ordered a set to begin with if I knew I was able to pick and choose which variants I wanted to put inside a box, myself. Totally. It's not like we knew either, y'know? I have 58 extra boxes from an overrun, though. It seems stupid and wasteful to recycle them for no reason. They're rather plain boxes, aren't they? I think it'd be cool to do something artistic with them. Maybe if you raffle away (or sell) test presses in the future, you could have each band (or a band member) doodle on the box which houses the record. They could also sign it if they chose to; kind of personalizes the album and gives it some extra flare. Obviously it'd be a roomy fit, dedicating one record per box... but I'm sure you could make something work. I don't know, just a thought.

Guest deleted Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 please go ahead and sign me up for a test press box set. kthx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batman Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 2nd run of box sets, unnumbered, sold with the least rare variant from each release included? i could actually see that not ruffling too many feathers. to sell the box by itself though would be a misstep in my opinion. what do you think about that derek?

jameswiersema Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Separate numbered tour boxset with least rare variant for when you bring them back to America and more specifically the West Coast. Bring Crash of Rhinos and Enemies too. topshelfsquad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serum7 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I'd take a box for mine. I don't have all the rarest variant so all the self conscious people who were able to order the set here need not worry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he's right. Burn the boxes. It would be selfish if you let "running your business" interfere with how he feels about his records. I mean come on, you have extra boxes? This guy could have bought the albums another way. Didn't you think of that? What a monster. Okay I'm ending the sarcasm. This is honestly the most self-absorbed thing I've read on this forum and that's saying a lot. Honestly I think most of you guys dream of having every record you ever wanted, created just for you, limited to 1, and even if that happened you still wouldn't be happy unless every musician and record distro you ever liked went bankrupt and died alone under a bridge.

colinb Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Seriously, some of these posts are pathetic. No harm in selling a few more boxsets and making a few more dollars for the label. AlexH. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinb Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 There isn't anything wrong with selling more boxes either. Go listen to your records and don't worry about whether they are any more rare than some other asshole's collection. I'm sure they will sound just fine, man.

batman Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Then there was zero benefit of buying the box set back in June and I could have had these records months ago. Not that big of a deal in the end, but thats my angle. Just my opinion. I'll still love the set and Topshelf no matter what. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
