So far I just have the memento box.

I've ordered and waiting for :
2 copy deluxe
play.com signed
vinyl

And I have the Townsend "It's Not War" singles bundle

Update:
Post has come and gone for the day, still didn't get the rest of the stuff - I felt like today would be the day...sigh

I didn't think that play.com shipped overseas. Otherwise, I would have ordered the signed copy.

They don't. I decided I needed to be a completist and got one off Ebay the other day. It wasn't too expensive, more than Play, I think it came to about $25 American, I had the guy send the receipt as well for authenticity.

The Canadian single CD is at $25.99 at Amazon (and out of stock). I think my UK purchase will be about $12. You got a good deal for a signed copy. Lucky you.

$12 is a sweet deal I find buying stuff right from the UK is way cheaper than buying anything on Amazon as an import. Haven't heard anything about the N. American release date yet. JFPL was about four months after the UK for the US and Canada.

I don't wanna think about how much I've spent so far....

I think about $12 is a sweet deal. The 7.60 quid x I think a $1.60 exchange rate. Makes up for all the Manics CDs (and others) I paid a small fortune for, when the pound exchange was about $2.60 Canadian. Ouch. $30-40 for a single CD. I got the 'Canadian' version of JFPL from Amazon to discover it was the American version and then got the UK version.

I've spent $800 on a pair of shoes, so it's relative.

I love how the album leak was super hush hush and now we're all posting sordid details of our internet history.

Awaits legal letter.

i have ordered the 1 disc, but have not received it yet. nor have i received my singles bundle, but i suspect that's more to do with the Post Office here than Townshend Records.

i would happily have bought the download if they sold them cross-border, but alas only you people in the "first world" can apparently download music legally. go figure.

I'm not allowed to buy the Amazon download or get any free downloads from Amazon. I have an iTunes Canada account, and I don't know if I can get an iTunes UK account. Mainly a copyright issue.
