I've had opportunity to root through my own collection. I have one DOL pressing, and one waxtime. The waxtime is bang on and sounds good, the DOL has a fair bit of surface noise. Not a statistically valid sample, we'll see what we get!!

I'm still holding out hope for the De Agostini overstock...

I have quite a few of each (relatively speaking!) and yes Wax Time is generally good/stunning and DOL can vary but then the source wasn't exactly reference anyway and quality can vary across even mainstream labels. I'm happy to wait and see...

One way or the other, I'm happier paying 30 pounds for 10 DOL pressings than 2 DOL for 40 euro that I see in Golden Discs...

Would the good geeks of these forums let us know when the hunch back postman leaves his package?
I'm at the stage of my life where looking forward to excitement is excitement in itself. I'm come to embrace the confusion.

I have a tracking number at least. No indication of arrival time, but I have reason to believe it's on its way.
