I could not justify paying almost $50 over the $22 on CMDistro just to get slipcases. My Ki doesn't have a slipcase, and boy could I not care less, lol.


Well the Ki artwork is actually nice, so you wouldn't mind not having the slip for that. But Ghost and Decon look like a shitty photoshop job and a dodgey Limp Bizkit cover, respectively, so I think the slipcases are more than necessary to improve the packaging of these latest two! :lol: As much as it's all about the music, and the music is beyond excellent, I've still got a soft spot for nice artwork if I'm buying a CD.

Hm... does that only work for that package? Tried to order the Ultimate, and like someone else said, took it but didn't work.

Really torn about what to order and from where. I guess it doesn't matter too much, but I'm pedantic as fuck when it comes to these things. The thought of having two DTP albums without the slipcases just stirs a deep feeling of dread.

Imagine how you'd feel if it didn't have the CD contained within!

I really like the slipcase art, and want the vinyl quite a bit. I like BOTH options.

Or, careful man, there's a beverage here!

Yes... shallow and pedantic.

I have finally decided to get Special bundle from Cmdistro (Still no idea how to ship it to india. last time my friend got a dvd shipped here from them, it got lost and they did nothing)

and I need the inside out package from Omerch. slipband around 2 slipcases + a few more editions of ghost since i love it to bits. just ordered some stuff from omerch (no preorder stuff). will do the preorder stuff + all ghost related stuff including casper and ghostbusters soon :D

If anyone wanted the Ultimate (or any bundle/cds) from CMDistro but was put off by the shipping, don't go by the shipping table. I used the shipping table to work it out and as I'm in Australia it would have come under the 'every other country' or whatever listing which had the most expensive shipping, I added it up with base shipping then the extra per item and it came out to be ~$32-ish or something, but when I put the Ultimate bundle in my cart and verified paypal and everything I only got charged $9 for shipping, total. So I highly suggest putting it in your cart and going through the process right up until you actually pay so you can see how much it will actually cost for shipping because a $9 value wasn't even in the table so I don't know where it got that from, but I'm pretty happy.

Yeah, the Ultimate bundle is seriously cheap. Due to the strength of the Aussie dollar you're getting two albums, a shirt, a 7" single, a patch and some tracks from Ghost 2 for about $50 including shipping. Going to a local store and you'd be lucky to get two CDs alone for $50.

Yeah I reckon. The package itself is real cheap, but I was expecting shipping to be a bomb. I would have gotten it anyway because I justify that as making up for the value, if that makes sense. If there are any customs charges or anything, which I doubt anyway, I don't mind paying them because that money would have originally gone towards shipping anyway. I'm a happy camper. Maybe I'll put what I saved towards my next omerch order if/when they get more of those DTP hoodies in.
