Handwritten: misc. Deluxe Editions

My signed deluxe arrived from Play.com today. As for the signatures, Alex R.'s has an extra something underneath (looks like a 217?).

Here its is:

Does indeed look like 217, maybe he was numbering the slipcases?

Just got my copy in the post. All signed and looking ace but it doesn't have the 216 on it.

Awesome to finally read all the notes and see the artwork / lyrics booklet.

Here is another one with a number (found on Facebook), but is it a /59 or a 159? As mine is 217, rather than /217, I'm not sure. As some are clearly not numbered, I wonder how many they did number.

many of them seem to be numbered:

maybe Ian was bored and wanted to contribute to all that signing, so he numbered them

true, and there is one on eBay numbered 190, and one of the above ones is in the 300s, so I wondered how far the numbering went

I went a little overboard and pre-ordered the deluxe CD softpack, blue vinyl and limited edition super deluxe. The CD softpack and blue vinyl shipped on Thursday with estimated delivery on Monday. The Super Deluxe is shipped from a different company, haven't heard anything about that yet.
I am enjoying the NPR stream for now while waiting.

being honest....NO not really

So...I got home today to find a big package from "punkrockmusic.com". That's odd, I thought... I cancelled my infinite merch order a day or two after I placed it. They refunded my money.

Inside: a T-shirt and a copy of the regular CD, with the old order number. Clearly they sent it out erroneously. I should return it right?

Then, there was a pink slip of paper in the mail. It was a missed delivery notice for my Interpunk order. Apparently they sent it signature guarantee. So I raced over to the post office - and the guy at the counter said "Sorry, you have to come back tomorrow. That truck won't be back until 4:45 and we close at 5. Sorry."

ARRRRGH!

Does anyone have any idea if they shipped the US deluxe autographed versions yet that was through Gaslight's website? A bit odd that it's two days after the release date and still no conformation.

Nobody seems to know anything about the Super Deluxe CD's. Crap, I spent $67 on that it would be nice to at least get it this week.

Fortunately though like I said in another thread or somewhere on Facebook - at least I got the music already. This is just extra. But still...this was a pre-order, I thought at worst I'd get it on release day.

from the has my CD been posted yet?, etc. thread in the Discussion about the band section:

Hello, Stephanie!
Unfortunately, due to shipping issues with the autographed bookplate stickers while the band was on the road, the “Handwritten” Super Deluxe editions were not able to be shipped out before release day. You can expect your copy to ship soon, we anticipate next week, and appreciate your understanding with this delay.
Thank you,
Sarah

Bonus content question: In the liner notes it says "Access even more content: Go to http://www.gaslightanthem.co.uk/handwritten with this CD in your computer to access exclusive content." I'm using Linux so this won't work for me - what am I missing out on? Is it anything I won't have seen before?

I don't think I'm going to keep mine and rather than cancel my order does anyone want to just buy the super deluxe autographed order from me?

Is it the signed version? I'm interested. As I'm in the U.K the online shop wouldn't even let me buy it when I tried (only American and Canada). Thanks

yeah it's the autographed copy

Cool if you could send me a message with the price please. Thanks

No, this was just the normal deluxe version. I didn't get a bundle or anything.
