Well this is fun. New kind of box (no longer a crate) with a hasp on the front. The box is finished, as well, not raw wood.

Lots inside.

Wish I could find the membership kits from 2013 and 2014.

That sounds great! I can't wait for them to ship mine!

That might account for the professor's woes.

I am in the same boat, and I purchased the premium kit as well. I will wait a bit longer and contact member services if I do not receive tracking information by the end of the week.

I also went with the highest level. I'm hoping I'll see an update in the next day or so.

It might be a bit longer, if the sources quoted by Todd are indeed correct:

I have it on good authority the Canadian ones are shipping next week.

I expect mine to be shipped at the same time as the Canadian lot, since the everything else I purchased so far was usually shipped with Canada Post.

I got the mid-level box (still a Crate), and everything is very cool. The membership card is GORGEOUS!

Curious how the mid-level box is different.

Received the premium kit today here in Virginia! Have there ever been puzzles / hidden extras in past kits? Any thoughts on what secrets this one may hold?? (Or, will that discussion occur in a separate thread?)

At first glance, though, everything is simply beautiful.

From one of the original emails:
"Available in three editions:

The Basic Kit comes with our limited edition shirt, a paper membership card, and our irreverent stickers on the theme of Madness in the Library.

The deluxe Inner Circle Kit comes with an upgraded brass membership card, a new challenge coin, a very fine notebook, and arrives within a nailed-shut wooden crate.

Finally, our premium Madness in the Library Collector’s Kit further upgrades the membership card to a gorgeous gunmetal finish and includes a lovely pin, fit for any formal occasion. Moreover, it arrives in a crate that is somewhat more refined and includes a second challenge coin, designed specifically to fit our theme this year."

Todd: I applied for a job and they asked if I had a police record. I said "what does my taste in music have to do with anything?" Sept 1, 2020 18:24:51 GMT -5

diggitydoodog: I've had dubious documents for 2 years now and finally went to work on it. Would anyone on here be willing to PM me the answer or post it in a spoiler so I can check the solution? Sept 17, 2020 11:44:39 GMT -5

Todd: Did you hear about the dwarfish fortune teller who broke out of jail? Police are on the lookout for a small medium at large. Oct 15, 2020 21:35:58 GMT -5
