[Just Passing Through]

A little patience is appreciated. There were an incredible amount of orders that came through for just the first day alone and I only started yesterday afternoon. Around another 200 orders have been dispatched today.

Gotcha. I don't know why I thought that it would be a more reasonable number spread out over a large number of days...


EDIT: Now I feel sheepish. Just got a dispatch e-mail.

 

[Azar]

Got my dispatch email too! Thanks @MVM

 

[ussjtrunks]

seen some arrived damaged already hopefully its only a few, the set is kinda chonky

 

[demonix]

Pray don't delay release forever...

I think the Evangelion Finally vinyl is going that way considering it's released has been put back at least 3 times so far (and for some reason Zavvi had the current release date well before AL updated on their end).

 

[HellCat]

Violet Evergarden just arrived.

To paraphrase Megatron, "Yes, Grant. Your constant whining saw us through!"

Mine too. Now I can start whinging about Planetes.

 

[Takei Daloui]

Mine arrived too. Been looking forward to getting this one.

 

[Just Passing Through]

The AL website says there should be 2 stamp books in the Violet Evergarden set but mine only had 1. Did anyone else find this to be the case?

Mine came with one also.

Same thing happened to me. I e-mailed them about it over the weekend, and got a favourable response.

 

[Just Passing Through]

Just got a quiet dispatch notice for Planetes.

 

[Vincentdante]

I do wish I had the funds back then for Planetes but alas. I'll try and grab it sooner or later when I can though.

Now I can start whinging about Planetes.

Just got a quiet dispatch notice for Planetes.

AL be like "checkmate"

Just got a quiet dispatch notice for Planetes.

same, it'll be nice to see what it's like.

 

[Joshawott]

Same thing happened to me. I e-mailed them about it over the weekend, and got a favourable response.

Huh... so they were supposed to come with two? Mine only came with one.

EDIT: From Hanners on the Discord:

It should have been two stamp books, but seems like a few units are missing one. We're hoping to have some spares at the end of the stock repackaging run (which will be continuing for a while) for anyone who missed out but really wants the second one.

 

[WMD]

Huh... so they were supposed to come with two? Mine only came with one.

Yeah seems to have happened to a few people. I also emailed them and sounds like I should get a 2nd one sent in due course.

 

[praseodimio65]

The whole stamp book situation seems a bit weird to me because I pre-ordered the French set from their website, and I received a second set of stamps with the replacement discs. But both sets are identical, so were the plans to have two identical stamp sets from the beginning?

 

[ussjtrunks]

Yay Evergarden shipped (ordered 4th October)

 

[Dai]

Mine is on the way. Are the two books of stamps identical or different?

 

[Buzzkillington]

Yeah the stamp book things are supposed to be identical. My set only came with one set too but I can't say I care enough to do anything about it tbh, wouldn't even have noticed had it not been mentioned here lol.

 

[Dai]

Turns out I'm also in the one book of stamps brigade. Everything else is present and correct. It's a gorgeous looking set. It looks like a lot of work has gone into the art book in particular; there's a lot of text that has all been translated.

 

[Gemsy-chan]

I only got 1 book of stamps too

 

[Azar]

I also got 1 book of stamps but not fussed.
