[Submitter notes - packaging:] Outer box comes sealed, with a hype sticker attached to the front, and the sticker "Made in France" attached to the back. Box set consists of an outer box, open on one side, and an inner folder (which houses the LPs) that slides out from the opening. The individual LPs are not sealed. LPs are approximate replicas of the original Polar label issues. No barcodes appear on the individual LPs (except "Voyage"). Inner sleeves are made of thin card, rather than paper on the original issues (except "Voyage"). The version of "Voyage" is identical to the standard issue 2021 LP, except vinyl is 180gr heavyweight. The sleeve is gatefold, inner sleeve is made of paper, poster and card are included. The version appears to be the same as [r=26769488], with "SST" masters, except has slightly different codes in matrices. The LP is not sealed and has no hype sticker. [Submitter notes:] LP1 sleeve rear has several typos. Where "io" should appear, "Š" appears instead. Where "il" should appear, "Õ" appears instead, hence "Ring Ring (Engelsk VersŠn)" and "EuropafÕm StudŠ". LP8 replicates the incorrect durations on labels that appeared on early copies of original LP: 8A5 3.56, 8B2 4.58 and 8B3 4.40. The fade-out at the end of track 7B4 ("Lay All Your Love On Me") is not segued with the live audience noise that starts the following track, 7B5 ("The Way Old Friends Do"), as on the original LP. Neither does the audience noise at the end of 7B5 extend to the runout groove (making the noise play endlessly on some players), as on the original LP. Track 8B4 ("Slipping Through My Fingers") is not segued with the following track, 8B5 ("Like An Angel Passing Through My Room"), as on the original LP. LP9: Identifier data comes from a 180gr copy [see below]. LP10: No production / engineer details or durations appear on the release.

[Information From Polar Music, August 2022:] "Due to a production error, a quantity of Voyage albums contained in the ABBA Vinyl Box Set released on 27th May 2022 were pressed on standard vinyl instead of the advertised 180-gram weight. Customers who believe they received the standard version in error and would like to request a 180-gram Voyage replacement disc should contact customer support. Replacement discs will begin shipping in August and arrive in plain sleeves, so customers are advised to retain their existing album covers.
