Deal alert / Italy promotion
Amazon Italy have a special promotion TODAY ONLY that offers visitors €10 off any purchase over €50.
Music fans might want to take advantage and to give you a few ideas, below are a some SDE suggestions that could see you save a significant percentage off the purchase price of recent/forthcoming releases…
To get the discount, simply type GRAZIE1000 in the discount code field when checking out. Items must be sold via Amazon and not third party sellers and if the item is already discounted as part of another promotion it won’t qualify. Obviously as long as your ‘cart’ adds up to more than €50 (not including P&P) you will qualify!
Note: You can only use the code once, so if you come back for a second separate transaction it simply won’t work. As a tip use the Google Chrome browser which automatically translates!

I definitely won’t be ordering from Amazon Italy again. I have placed three orders in the last few months and all were majorly delayed. However, of more concern is the fact that every single item has arrived damaged, notably due to poor packaging. A cheaper price for an item does not compensate for sub-standard service.
You’re right – Dunfermline is indeed the return address but closer inspection reveals that mine came from much closer to home. In fact, Hemel Hempstead, about 5 miles away…
Dunfermline is the return address but that doesn’t necessarily mean that it was sent from there. What surprised me is that I received the Dylan box set within 36 hours of ordering it from Amazon Italy and it had an Italian import hologram sticker on it.
My Dylan set also arrived this morning – sent from Dunfermline.
Paul you’re the man !!! Didn’t have time to say thank you before (sad weekend for a french dude…), I’ve ordered the Bob Marley box (pretty appropriate to listen to these days…) and this made me down to 140€ for it, pretty nice price !!! So thanks :)
You’re welcome…
Georgie Fame just dropped to 24.98 at Amazon.co.uk – grab it grab it ….super fab price
*10.30am
Extraordinary. I ordered the Basement Tapes box set from Amazon Italy at 11.50pm on Friday night and it arrived at 10.30pm this morning! It looks like it’s been sent from the UK but it has a Sony Music Italy hologram sticker on it.
Just bagged the Georgie Fame box for less than 30 quid including postage….many thanks….
Hi,
Deep discount: Velvet re-Loaded- $43.33 as of 14:09 est
Turns out some of the items listed above are part of a ‘Buy 2 get 20% off’ deal, hence why I got a further discount.
Forgot to mention with the 10 euro discount off the price of Sticky Fingers SDE, it worked out to be £55 with delivery!
I purchased the other items afterwards and still got a 10% discount!

Thanks for the tip.
I’ve used Amazon Italy on a few occasions and haven’t had any problems.
With the discount The Rolling Stones Sticky Fingers super deluxe came to £55 as it’s currently 80 euros.
Thanks man, I went with Van!
I’ve ordered several things recently from amazon.fr and they have been dreadful. One thing is lost in space and they tried to send another copy and it hasn’t made it to me(United States) for weeks.
Another item is in stock but they haven’t released it for 8 days. Hopefully amazon.it is better.
The shipping cost for the Dylan box was only €3:83 so I’m not sure how they calculate their charges.
Excellent. I can get the VU Loaded Super at a sensible price. Just need the third album to come a bit to complete the collection.
Exactly. If you’re not in Italy, make sure to check the shipping cost. It is likely to be about or more the €10 (£7) discount.
In case you’re wondering who’s making the deal here, it’s Amazon. It always is…
Amazon Italy are charging 18 euros for shipping the velvet underground loaded. this makes it more expensive than buying it in the UK.
Just saying..
I only got charged 4 pounds for the shipping for Loaded. Ended up paying £37 including postage. Though when I ordered the White Light/White Heat super from Italy it ended up being sent from Scotland!
Cheers, just ordered Neil Young’s Blue Note Cafe & Psychedelic Pill for £55 with the discount. Result!
Thanks paul bagged fire and skill for a shade over £50
bargain!!
Thanks for the post, got email confirmation from Amazon.it today.
doesnt however work on Springsteen Ties that Bind Blu ray set whichis 99 euro. dont know why. says voucher GRAZIE1000 is invalid.
May not work on all orders. anyone else have problems?
Further to this, I just got Mccartneys wings at the speed of sound box set for £28!!!!
The Whole World’s Shaking much better over at amazon.co.uk – The price just dropped to 29.51 pounds. Shipped to Detroit it was just over 27 pounds – by far the best I have seen
Great, thanks once again Paul. Came to £53:77 for the Dylan set, £18 less than the lowest ever price on Amazon UK.
