Not sure why the ticket should become a collectors item. If any 'collector' wants one they can buy the box set surely?

Well, I suppose there will only be a limited number of box sets, so if you get lucky ;D and get one, you have a collectors item...
It's the end of a perfect day..,.

I am sure I will get the box, because I like to have boxsets.
I have a couple box sets :


I hope to add the Get Lucky box set to my collection soon. No matter what the price is.

Well I just sprang for the preorder on Amazon.    175 US bucks.  Geez.  And to think, the only things I want are the cds and dvds.   I'll willingly turn over any of the other stuff to some one who wants them.    Jeezzz Louisssse.

True but the only others who will want it will be those who tried and failed to buy one. I doubt it is going to send the price rocketing sky high though :-)

It is a piece off carton with a OES postage stamp and a PIN with the OES logo. I got it from my dad but I don't know where it came from. Maybe it was part of a box?

I do have the Pulse box with flashing led, does that count?

Yes. Both for OES and OTN were released Promo boxes, which contained various items (not all together in the same box!): promo CDs, VHS, tape, Tourbook, stamps, pins, agenda, watch, etc. These boxes have been distribuited to Press and other media. Some examples (but there are boxes more complete):



I think this will be the first time that this kind of Box will be commercially available.

I have started another topic where we can put photo's from every DS and or MK boxset. Promo or original.

So that we all can see what's available, and what we have got.

I wonder what we will get with the Deluxe version in Germany. On Amazon you can order it for 232 Euros. That's more than twice as much as the price in UK. Probably there are more and/or other items in the box. But which one ?  For that price ?

Perhaps additionaly a voucher to order tickets in presale for gigs in Germany, Swiss, Austria, ... . Similar to the proceeding at the last tour, where we had to buy a special KTGC version which contained such a voucher.

Jeroen, do you know more about that ... or somebody else ?

Well yes of course, with that super special overpriced deluxe version, and ONLY with that super special overpriced deluxe version, you will get a voucher for the MK fan ticket presale of course! But nobody knows, we'll only find out by accident... And since the price is so outrageous, only rich MK fans will be able to get front row tickets! Judging by the way they handled that presale last time, this wouldn't surprise me at all!
Only kidding of course (hopefully!!). Seriously, I think the price is a mistake. I am NOT going to buy a 232 EUR CD even if it contains a sweaty headband!
And I pray that if they decide to do that concert voucher thing again, they will organise things better. Otherwise I'll need a LOT of valium to calm my nerves!!

Be calm, and begin to move the furniture in the living room: for that figure surely Mark will play a private concert at your lounge  ;D
