So looks like I haven't gotten any updates on if my order has shipped. I'm in the US and ordered directly from their webstore.
I'm in the US also...east coast...nothing in terms of a shipping email. Plus site won't accept my password so I'm trying to change it & not getting that email either! Feeling a little anxious lol!
All I get form the website is showing that the order is still "new" but nothing beyond that.

Only two c***-ups as far as I can tell so far: the 'edited' Being boring video they said had accidently been used, and the version of Love etc. is remastered from the remaster and not the original mix (has the full drums on the 'Gerhardt Richter' bit). Apart from that it is a lovely boxset to treasure.

Ouch. The Love Etc version is an awkward mess up - as it was on the Yes remaster. As with the different ending to 'I Want To Wake Up ' on the 'Actually' remaster, it makes me always listen to the original CD pressings as the definitive versions, despite the rereleases.

Seems strange that they haven't put Smash in the US iTunes store.
Yes, it isn’t there is it ! Strange.

If I'm not mistaken Single-Bilingual is a different mix as well. Loads of extra harmonies especially on middle-8, different intro with crash cymbal and synth line is lower in parts. Actually sounds better but is not the single version.

I found another little mistake. Both blu rays have thumbnails of the video's, and both use a thumbnail from the second Opportunities video.

I'm enjoying the blu-ray menus & the instrumental West End Girls & Opportunities.
Lovely little box set
