It said it would be shipped in 5 - 10 days. Time will tell I guess. Enjoy yours !

I ordered Vol 2 from CCMusic in January when I noticed it was listed as being in stock and they shipped it same day. When I contacted them about the blank USB they said I would have to return the whole set for a refund as they didn't have any more in stock.

TMR sent me a replacement USB despite me not having bought the set from them, which was very nice :thumbup:

Of those of y'all who've received their Volume 2, has anyone been able to read the runout etchings? I'm having trouble seeing them clearly on the white vinyl.

Oh, and photos, if anyone's interested. Pardon my messy apartment-- https://www.flickr.com/photos/28108918@ ... 857968581/

1. Good old Rounder, but he's dead and gone
2. Why you wanna drive me away?
3. Something very marvelous
4. What a low contemptible Rounder
5. Standing Pat
6. Musta shook that thing
7. Poor boy, long way from home
8. Come back tomorrow momma, try it again
9. Live right so you can die right
10. My friends want to give me some air
11. Wasn't fit to eat
12. Where is my boy tonight

Thanks! Gonna have to look for all of those phrases in the silver book. I noticed "something very marvelous" last night and, if I remember correctly, all of the Vol.1 runout etchings were in the red book. I think.

Mine's currently still spread around-- The box sitting open on the floor, one record on the turntable, the field manual on the coffee table, the big silver book on the couch, the Jobber-Luxe displayed next to my turntable with the one from the first set. I even still have the packing carton sitting in my office at work, I haven't been able to throw it away.

Hopefully if you got your shipping notice, Woody, then that means my buddy Mr. Harris will get his soon, too.

On another note Kali, I would keep the shipping box. Don't toss it. If you move in the future thats the best way to protect it. Someday if you decide to sell it the box would come in handy too. I know your not gonna sell it but you might move. Just a thought. I think me and you are the only ones interested :) I'm looking forward to looking through it all.

Good point, Scott. Plus, it's just a cool box.

Question for Volume 2 owners: If all the records are label-less, how do you tell them apart?

The run-out inscriptions.

Which are very elegantly done. One of my favorite little things about this set.
