I assume you are looking for the undamaged version, correct?
As of this point in time they have not received boxes 2-4.I emailed them earlier today to ask about verified 1st prints. They told me the same and that I was the 9th order so when the next box arrives they will check them to make sure they are 1sts and mine would come out of that box.
My order is on the way and it's the Moth variant. They said that's all they've received. Didn't specify if all the boxes had arrived or not.As of this point in time they have not received boxes 2-4.I emailed them earlier today to ask about verified 1st prints.

Luke : Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
It is not here yet. I contacted Waterstone's and they gave me an actual tracking number after first giving me one with nine "1"s. It's been going all over the place. The zip code was keyed in wrong by one number. It's currently somewhere near me but not here. The post office said it should show up... but at this point I'm not too confident that it will be in a "book shape".Did you ever get your UK SL ?

Update:
I did get a partial refund from Waterstones. They apologized and said Waterstones is looking into a different protocol to handle limited books and shipping to the US.

Would be easier for them to forbid foreign purchase on those titles !

It would be EASIER to take better care with packaging. Still same problem unless you live in the same city they are shipping from.

Wait you keyed in the zip wrong or they did? Because if they keyed it in wrong their systems are all kinds of messed up. It should auto print shipping based on what you type into the shipping address in the web form.It is not here yet.

The USPS says they see that the correct address is on the label but the tracking shows wrong zip code. They said someone keyed it in wrong somewhere along the line. I checked my order on Waterstone's website and the delivery address is correct, so could be customs or possibly Waterstone's fulfillment? Not sure.

My S/L just arrived. The box looked terrible and it had the wrong zip code. Luckily the book only had some rubbing on one of the slipcase corners... not perfect but better than expected.
On the other hand, just received VJ Books Owen signed UK copy and although it's a 1st print, mine does not have an animal stamp on the front boards. I've contacted them to see what can be done. I'm assuming printing error.

I'm glad your S/L showed up with minimal war wounds. Congrats on that

I'm wondering if anyone else has received a UK 1st printing that doesn't have an animal on the boards?

I went into Gerald's on Monday to buy a UK edition of Sleeping Beauties and he didn't have any with the animal stamp. He said retail versions do not have the stamp so I'm not sure what that means in the long run or which stores have and don't have it.
"Retail versions" DO have the stamp, but only the 1st editions. Becca seems to have a real anomaly here. Maybe they ran out of Animal boards before they ran out of 1st print page blocks?
If so that makes ANOTHER 1st print variant.....
"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King
The VJ Books version also has a tipped in page with a printed box where Owen signed."Retail versions" DO have the stamp, but only the 1st editions. Becca seems to have a real anomaly here. Maybe they ran out of Animal boards before they ran out of 1st print page blocks?
