as far as concerns shipping expenses i prefer to pay more and get a better service (hope courier) than get through regular mail, well hopefully. sendback is full of surprises when it comes to shipping i agree in everything said about armistice <3 it makes me want to buy a piano and actually learn to how to play. it's just that kind of song...

Dammmm all these choices. And pricey, especially outside UK. I find it odd that the Deluxe Box Set does not include Lemuralia. One would think it'd have everything. It costs more to buy the CD+Lemuralia, the LP, and the House EP. EDIT: GOOD GRIEF. With shipping (which is $25), to get all three is $83.85! And if I put just the Deluxe set in my cart, with shipping ($40.85) it costs $83.48. That's not cool man. yeah I was saying this in the 'New Merch' thread, I can't believe North Americans have to pay $114 for the deluxe box set and CDs! I asked him on twitter if a download of Lemuralia comes with the vinyl because it's so expensive, and he immediately RTed someone saying they were giving up booze for a night to afford the albums, so erm, I think that might be his answer. He also said on twitter that there might be a US release with different formats later on, but I think he might have just said that to get me and some fans to quit complaining. Who knows in reality...I'm gonna wait and see if I can catch him on the US tour, and maybe he will be selling some vinyl then without the $40 shipping price. On a positive note: Love Armistice!

Yeah I'm not going to hold my breath on the US getting the exact same. I think I'm going to go with the CD+Bonus and the House EP. We really don't get the 7" vinyl and never sure if we'll get that bonus CD, but we tend to get the LP vinyl just fine so I'll leave that out for now. The deluxe box is nice, but I'll live with out it. Maybe Patrick (or rather his US distributor) will surprise us and release it here. Maybe.

Great formats although I wish Lemuralia was included in the box set, it makes it feel a little incomplete...

It is a bit irritating that you have to buy the same album twice (cd and vinyl) to get the bonus disc. Not that I wouldn't buy the cd anyway, but yeah. Why not make a "complete" box set with both the vinyl and cd editions + bonuses tucked away in that lovely box? I'd be happy! /t

Great formats although I wish Lemuralia was included in the box set, it makes it feel a little incomplete... Yeah, that's the most annoying bit I think. Otherwise I'd just be like screw it and get the box set if it had the bonus CD in it. It really should have the album CD in it too. I ended up going with my plan of CD+Bonus and the House EP. If I have to I can (hopefully) get the LP at a later date, but it should come out in the US too. I stared down the "Pay Now" button for about a minute and then quickly clicked it, crying out a little in pain for my bank account. But it'll be worth it I suppose... We're getting close here....

It does feel a bit like fans who are completists (like me) are being made to buy two pricey formats. What I love about box sets is that usually they include everything and that's what makes them special. If you look at the price of the box set here it's actually cheaper to buy the two vinyls separately so really you're paying an extra fiver for the poster and the box itself. It's not a big deal, after all nobody is forcing me to buy anything (!!!) I love patrick and I can't wait for this album so I'll swallow it. I just think it's a bit of a shame that the box is not complete.

actually i think it's nice to have a special cd version as well, for people who'd never buy the vinyl anyway... you know, so everyone who wants to can have something "special" and the sp. ed. cd costs about as much as any normal, not special cd, costs over here, so it looks like a good deal to me (personal opinion).
and an a3 poster for a fiver is not bad either?

does anyone know if the download of armastice is different to the album version? I already have the cd preordered and am weighing up the worth of buying the special edition one aswell, the download is the dealbreaker for me

Mailout says that the vinyl box set is limited to 1000 copies.
There's also a bit more info about Lemuralia:

I was SO EXCITED to see the box set... but $75? Sorry, that isn't happening. I understand that shipping is a huge part of it, but still. I just can't bring myself to buy it, even though I really want it. My loss =[

from the news:
Patrick’s new Webstore is now live and it’s the only place where you can buy the Lupercalia vinyl box set. This specially commissioned box features beautiful exclusive artwork and houses the LP in a gatefold sleeve with booklet, a “House” 7″green vinyl and an exclusive A3 poster. Big enough to also hold the rest of the Lupercalia family 7″s and CD formats, it is strictly limited to 1000 copies for the world.
i think they have decided to go with the vinyl only version to keep the price low, but then people can fill it up with double cd album and rest of the 7 inches. for a strictly limited edition price is not that bad, actually would be great if they will be individually numbered. the best would be with a3 poster signed by pw himself...
