when will the TFioS box sets be sent out? :D
Anonymous

90% of them have already been sent out. Usually it would be 100%, no problem, but unfortunately our only warehouse worker (and my girlfriend), Kristen, threw her back out the first night of packing. We only had a couple hundred boxes done at that point.

So over the last five days I’ve been working 12 and 14 hour days packing and labeling and sending out the box sets. I had my parents coming over every day after they got off their day job to help. I had nerdfighters I had never met who live in the area come over to help out because every pair of hands count.

This is the largest project DFTBA has ever taken on, and unfortunately we had to tackle it with our master packer out of service. To pack one single box set I need to…

1. collate seven discs
2. assemble postcards and a concert ticket
3. insert a piece of styrofoam and a wrist band
4. fold up the box set
5. wrap the box set in bubblewrap
6. construct the shipping box
7. place the box set in the shipping box
8. tape the shipping box closed
9. label the shipping box with each person’s address
10. slap a FRAGILE label on there, then move on to the next…

…times THREE-THOUSAND TIMES.

So, I fully apologize to those who receive their box sets late, but I am honestly working myself close to death to get them out as fast as possible while also being a good boyfriend and cooking for Kristen, helping her move from the bed to the bathroom, cleaning the house, etc.

I promise you will have it as quickly as superhumanly possible.
