Can cards exiled with one copy of Pyxis of Pandemonium be brought into play by sacrificing another copy of Pyxis of Pandemonium? Similarly if you have two copies in play do they stack the cards exiled in the same place and then do you sacrifice one or both to bring these cards into play?
Sorry if this is an obvious question.
No. When a card refers to itself, it refers to that specific object, and the cards specifically linked to it's ability. Whenever you look at a card, and it says it's name, it is almost always correct to replace it with "this object".

Everyone knows that good luck and good game are such insincere terms that any man who does not connect his right hook with the offender's jaw on the very utterance of such a phrase is no man I would consider as such.
Thanks for the quick answer.
In the pre-release yesterday my opponent played a copy sometime after destroying mine. He said we should carry on stacking the exiled cards in the same pile, seemed weird at the time. That ruling might have won me the game!
I tried my best but was already unsure about a lot of things. You see I live in Japan and it was hard enough just playing in Japanese for the first time.
I should have a better handle on it by the next time I play in a tournament.
What is the order of permanents being placed? Does the opponent put his down first? Do you alternate order? I ask because I boarded it in against a control deck, and he had a Detention Sphere come into play which he targeted my Burning Earth with.
Because the effect doesn't say to put the permanents onto the battlefield in a certain order (like Warp World does, for example), they're all put onto the battlefield at the same time. If any triggered abilities trigger from this then the active player puts the ones he controls onto the stack in the order of his choice, then the non-active player puts the ones he controls onto the stack in the order of his choice (if there are more than 2 players in the game, you start with the active player and go around the table in turn order). The example that you give is a legal play on your opponent's part.
Sorry if this is an obvious question.
