I've lurked here for a while, but I might as well throw in my two cents. I ordered from the public sale on the 26th around 8:30am. My card was charged on 4/4 and I received an email that my order shipped on 4/18. I haven't received the order yet and found some disturbing info this morning. I haven't heard anyone mention anything like this, so I'm hoping I didn't get completely screwed over here. The tracking number I received didn't have any information available when I received it on the 18th, stating it would only be available after the package was delivered.
So, today I checked the status and it says the item was delivered to the wrong state. I have no idea what address it was actually sent to, just the city and state. Nowhere in my order or account is there anything other than my billing/shipping address, so my only hope is that they got the tracking numbers mixed up. How likely does that seem? I just can't imagine why else my order would have been sent to a completely (seemingly) random address unassociated with my account and order.
I've contacted merch about this, and I'll wait until the mail arrives today before panicking.
Did the tracking say Delivered or shipped?

@ else - I think you may be screwed.  Just checked my USPS tracking info on Toolband/Store and it is accurately showing the dates and locations through the delivery cycle.  It still shows mine out for delivery, with my correct city/state, but I'm sure it will update later with DELIVERED (received it today).  Sounds like they either sent yours somewhere else, or like you guessed, maybe associated the wrong USPS tracking number with your order.  Hope it's the latter for your sake.  Good luck.

Just got my buddy's copy in the mail. Â Like others have reported: Comes in a simple padded envelope, no other protection, but it arrived in good shape. Â It is a bitch and a half to get shit out of that package. Â No Golden Ticket, and no surprise there. Â The cert did have an embossed seal. Â All four sigs were there and un-smudged. Â The USB card works fine, but I was surprised to find it was only 4GB - thought someone mentioned 16GB? Â Either way, totally useless. Â It was blank as everyone already knows. Â What a sham(e).
Since Hellboy and others have already confirmed there's no point in even bothering listening to the CD, I'll just put it all back together and get it to my friend when he's back.
Disappointed, but not surprised.
If you are looking for some false hope to temper your disapointment,consider that it is not difficult to completely conceal and encrypt a partition on a drive.Invisible until properly decrypted.
Unfortunately,I doubt this is the case.The least the could have done was throw a few pics from the loft on there or something.

The only doodle is something Danny did – a circle within a triangle with a dot in the center?
that's not a doodle. Danny always has that in his sig.
Actually, he may not be talking about the signature "circled star" that DC always signs with.
The V2 I received has that, plus he scrawled a heptagram right underneath his name.
I believe "scrawled" is a more accurate description than "doodled" in this case.

Copies! I sincerely hope they just gave me the wrong tracking number. If not, I have no idea how (or even if) they'd go about trying to recover the package from whoever they mailed it to. And if that package is lost, seems pretty slim that they'd have even MORE extra copies to fulfill my order, so I might be totally screwed. It's hard to remain optimistic with the number of problems that have already been reported.

Sounds like a bad deal- I hope it works out for you!

Finally got my version 5 today.Â
374/1000
No embossed stamp on COA
Has all 4 sigs in good shape. No doodles by anyone.
Packaging is definitely a PITA. I took my CD out first and the other inserts came out a lot easier after that.
Question: Do I just "break" the USB card off of its holder? I don't want to fracture the large holder or the USB stick...
Looked at all the pictures/art. Enjoyed them. Put everything back together and now it will sit for years in the padded envelope it came in.
One thing I feel compelled to remind people of in case it slipped your mind:
If you are going to store your copy in the padded envelope that it came in you might want to buy some acid free tissue paper or acid free kraft paper so that the signatures don't get scratched and they wont fade as fast from interactions with the plastic of the bubble wrap. Acid free tissue paper is uber cheap on eBay (your local craft store probably wont have it so buy it via eBay) and it can be used to store all sorts of things more safely than with other storage wraps.

Also to the dude with the wrong/misdelivered tacking number.
I would contact USPS and confirm delivery with the tracking number.
They should have a record of the tracking number in their system and the delivery address associated with that number should also be in their system.
If it was addressed to you and misdelivered to a wrong address they can probably get it back if you prove you are supposed to be the true recipient.
Also, tracked priority mail is insured to some degree so you might be able to get some cash back from USPS if it is truly lost.
I'm going with merch sent you the wrong tracking number.

It's like a door. Just open it up. A hinge/pin.Â
Thanks.
I was going to break it off like a kit-kat bar. Now I will gingerly approach of opening the door.

Hey guys. Long time lurker, first time poster.
I've contacted Tool merch as I'm growing concerned about my order. It's easier for me to post my email rather than retype the situation. Does anybody have any thoughts? Keep in mind that I'm in New Zealand, so I would expect slightly longer shipping times than normal
On the 22/3/13 I signed up to Toolarmy and purchased the Opiate re-issue Number 1. On the first of April I received an email indicating that the Reissue had been shipped (78016). Just yesterday my membership package arrived after I received an email 5 days ago indicating that It was shipped. I'm still waiting on the Re-issue - and I just saw that the order status on the website has now changed to "new" and I'm not sure if you've actually sent it out. If the other package can get here in ~5 days why is the re-issue taking so long? I'm simply concerned - especially about the updated order status. Are you able to provide me with a tracking number for the reissue? Can you confirm that it has been shipped?
Thanks a lot

^I wouldn't worry at this point. As stated on the site they're still being shipped. Guaranteed you'll receive another email when it's actually been mailed. The TA shop notification updates are buggy. Always have been.
There are probably only two or three people handling the merch too. Four to six weeks is pretty standard for them.

Sorry to hear you wasted your money joining TA brother...

Yes, that's what I'm referring to... the heptagram. Or at least DC's rende... I mean scrawling of.
