I love it really much. The double lp could be awesome and it is a long time that we didn't have a dvd. The book is a really good news, I always love to see pictures.
The bad things is the price which incrase. 85$... It start to be a little expensive. I love US customers who say "the price didn't increase in 10 years". The price had increase already with 10$ for international members, now 5$... I am sorry but when we pay 4 vault package, we spend like you buy 5 vault package... I wonder how many US customers would be ok to pay 80$. So don't talk for international customers please
The core price didn't change, they just started charging realistic prices for shipping. If you don't like it, don't buy it. If you can't afford it, don't buy it. Move to the US or get a friend in the US to buy a copy and ship it to you via African swallow.
Of course I don't like it. Who say "oh yes, this is amazing, I will pay more!" Nobody... And I also know that it is the real price, I sent some stuff to USA and it was like 30$. The point is, that we spend 80$ for each vault package, so yes I will be more selective like Jamie. How much of you could be ok to pay 80$? 60$ was the price of the package in USA, you never paid shipping, and TMR is really kind with you, because even in USA, the price is more than 5$ to send a package like that.

Arrived today and I genuinely think this may be my favourite Vault yet. It's exactly what I want from a Vault pack and I wouldn't have hesitated to spend $80 on this if I'd have seen it in a store, the packaging alone really shows the effort they put into it.

The downside is that I'll now be incredibly disappointed if we don't get De Stijl XX next year, the bar has been set.

I like the track “Perpetual Pre-Shipment Blues (Outtake).”
