The Final Days

Hey everyone,

The books have been bundled with the additional goodies, they will be all packed up in postage boxes tomorrow morning and sent off.

Australian customers - keeping in mind the standard Australian delivery times, I believe they will be with you in the next few days.

Overseas customers - It will really depend on your location, according to the information I have, all deliveries take 4-5 working days with some places less than this.We will be able to offer tracking numbers once we send the books out. Will be in contact with you all as soon as they are.

Thanks again everyone for your patience... these are the last days.

 

Here are some photos of the packing

Finally arriving

We're about to jump in the trucks and finally pick up the books which have been locked in Australian customs for a while. Will be posting up some photo's shortly. Should have all the final delivery of books sent out on Monday to be delivered to the Australian people Tuesday. It's been a long journey for all involved.

In the meantime if you'd like to win a signed copy of the Goddess Edition head over to the Warners facebook Santa compeition today:

A little longer to wait for the Kylie Goddess Edition

Like all things in life, sometimes reaching a final destination takes a few twists and turns!

We know how absolutely EAGER you are to get your hands on the Goddess Edition, but unfortunately the wait is going to be  a little bit longer.

The stock recently arrived in Australia, completed with all Kylie's suggestions and changes - but, unfortunately, the manufacturing of some of the books was not at the standard that we would have liked for such a special project and one close to the heart of so many fans such as yourself. As such some of the books are going to be remanufactured so they are all 100%. We of course can only deliver when we can deliver to all. We understand this is very disappointing, but we really want to make sure it is absolutely the best product possible and one that reflects the true glory and impeccable standards of Kylie.

The new estimated timeline for this product will now be November - right in line with the DVD release of Aphrodite Les Folies Live In London.

For those wanting to see a little update of how everything is looking, we've included a little video below. with the few additional manufacturing tweaks, this will give you a little look at what your amazing Goddess Edition will look like when it finally arrives in your hands!

Should that timeline not meet your needs, you do have the option to cancel your order. For those continuing the journey with us, we thank you sincerely for your patience and commitment.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email us.

Many thanks,
Team Kylie - Warner Music.

Adam and Benja were delighted to meet with the stunning Kylie over in Hong Kong a couple of weeks back. She was so excited to see the beginnings of The Goddess Edition and very impressed. She made a few adjustments, she knows her fans better than we do :-)

But not long now guys, we know you are all desperately waiting to see it!!
