I had the same issue but sent an email and photo of the condition to Wizards and they sent a replacement out straight away - was very happy with the customer service.

Do you need a receipt for it, I lost my receipt.

My guess is player's handbook 2.

They have said straight up there will be no PHB II, they think it will confuse new players. Plus 2 does not appear after the name on the spine.

Now I would be interested in a 5.5 edition with the same core ruleset with fixes to aspects of the game that seem to have been rushed and don't work well. But I don't think we're there yet?

Please - no half editions. They're the worst. There hasn't been a "point five" edition yet that actually has been worth the grief. Just release fixes in supplements as better ways are found to do things that aren't perfect in the core rules and then once you have enough of them (and you know they actually do work better than what is in the core rules) put out a sixth edition that reorganizes those fixes into the core rules.

At the rate they're going it would be 5-10 more years until a sixth edition with that approach. Which would be just fine with me.

This is pretty obvious. It is just a special edition PHB. No revision (outside of the errata being incorporated like it is in all new printings).

They will likely announce this, the DMG, and MM tomorrow, and tease an announcement date for the Settings coming this year.

No, I've returned a PHB (and a DMG). No receipt required.

I'd be up for a limited edition cover of a PHB with all the latest errata and perhaps a better index. Even better if they revised the downtime section to align with XGE.

Collector's editions? Another hard pass for me. Gotta say these latest 5e releases have been a boon on my bank account.

Wake me up when they get to psionics or Dark Sun.

Definitely not just the PHB...
Which you can see the title of in the background:

Just photos of the damaged book, for proof you own one and it is dying.
IIRC they let you keep the old and typically pay for shipping.
