Deal alert / Pretenders 22-disc box
MASSIVE reduction on Amazon UK for Edsel’s forthcoming Pretenders box set which gathers up studio recordings across 20 years.
Almost £40 has been sliced off the price and you can now pre-order for just £74 (was £112), or if you are in the USA it’s about $95 plus shipping. This is an enormous amount of bang for your buck. The albums in the box are Pretenders, Pretenders II, Learning To Crawl, Get Close, Packed!, Last of the Independents, Isle of View and Viva El Amor! Most are 2CD+DVD sets. Full details can be found here.
Update 15/1/15 – Price has now gone up to £93!
Currently £59:03 on Amazon UK:

Currently at about £79, which is not too bad.
Thanks Paul,
If I knew they were from original master tapes, I would’ve purchased. I’m weary on edsel?
Thanks for the heads up Roelant, on the UB40 discounts – I have ordered those, if they don’t come down to the price I expect to pay – I can cancel the order prior to dispatch.
Also keeping an eye on The Pretenders :-)
Yep £92.99 (not that i’d ever spend that kind of money on The Pretenders TBA)!
Just checked Amazon now and the price is now up again to £92.99
The individual discs dropped to just under 11 pounds at Amazon.co.uk. I was able to order and ship to the US the first 3 discs for a total of 30 pounds give or take half a crown.
The original price was way too high, this is more sensible in comparison to similar sets, and pretty good value, as I posted earlier on the original thread *hint hint* haha…
Wow thanks for pointing this out Paul, I pre ordered at 112 pounds, now it’s 65 ….sensational stuff!
I think Amazon.uk say you will get the cheapest price but nice to make sure of it.
Thanx Paul. And while ordering this superdelicious box from Chrissie and her band, I noticed that UB40’s Labour of Love deluxe edition had also dropped 30% in price. Enough resason to throw that one also in my cart :)
Been waiting for this to drop 65 pounds inc shipping to Oz and we have no import duties here, good on ya Paul….
still too expensive to me, but i’m not a huge fan…
Speaking of edsel, did you talk about their mini site with very great discounts on some artists?
http://www.myplaydirect.com/demon-music
Yes did talk about that site. More to come apparently…
Are the CDS they sell new or used?
MyPlay Direct? Brand new, still sealed copies.
