Unfortunately it seems to me that it exceeds the price. The Christmas ones seem interesting to me but, if we add to those prices the money lost due to customs costs, the final price becomes exorbitant.

The main problem with buying in the store is that the refund for customs costs never arrive and the final price that results is much higher.

I'm still waiting for refunds. I only buy in the store when there is no other option.

Crap, looks like everything's sold out. We were thinking of buying the jigsaw as a gift for my daughter because (as I said before jokingly) the cover bears more than a passing resemblance to the Perler bead boys she gave to N&C at the Super concert.

I was half thinking to put the jigsaw together, frame it with a copy of the CD and a laminated copy of the Pet Text of her with them.

Looks like that idea is now off the table.

Not sold out as I’ve just pre-ordered some things including the jigsaw puzzle - just had to press the green ‘pre- order’ button via my mobile.

Grrr! The curse of the US Webstore link! Thanks for the tip off - you are 100% correct it is still available for pre-order on the UK webstore. The USA store it's not. :wall:

Are these Christmas cards on sale (https://shop.petshopboys.co.uk/de/pet-s ... 33915.html) the same Farrow-designed ones that were released in paper format to only "Friends and Family and Business Associates" AFTER they stopped sending the Christmas cards in paper format to the Fan Club and replaced with digital only?

The last hard copy Christmas card they sent out was 2013.

The green laser Christmas tree is the one from 2014
The snowmen one is the one from 2015
The Super bauble is from 2016
The 2017 / 2018 / 2019 / 2020 ones are missing
The Northern Lights one is from 2021
The Go West Christmas pudding hats one is a rework of the 1993 one
The Relentless one is presumably the 2023 one

The jigsaw is great quality and not quite as much black as the cover of the box suggests.
