It's nuts, not many people have reported them being sold out in shops. But yeah, it doesn't seem much of a coincidence they're only being sent out as they're being removed or the new issue.

Oh dear...My card has been debited for about a week now, I'm not gonna panic yet. However, I'm in NYC so we'll see if/when it arrives and if it is one piece.

Are many still waiting for theirs? Mine was allegedly dispatched on the 21st, but I've still had nothing in the post yet.

Yeah, still waiting. To those of you who didn't get a reference number, what did you say when you rang them? Did they pretend there wasn't an order?

Passing this on: I popped into Glasgow Argyle St's WH Smiths on my way home and there's one left - but it looks opened.

I ordered mine almost two months ago and nothing. I'm in NY too, so I know it's going to take longer than everyone else receiving theirs now, but I'm wondering if I should email them and ask what's going on.

I feel your pain. No Q vinyl, no box set - no nothing. My patience is wearing very thin.
