Deal alert / Steve Hackett 14-disc Premonition box with 5.1 surround
Cheapest price to date for the limited Steve Hackett Premonitions 14-disc box set, over on Amazon Italy right now.
The 10CD+4DVD retrospective comes in a smart 10-inch slipcase complete with 66-page hardcover book and is just £55 (or €71) on the Italian site. That’s a massive saving. With VAT deducted that gives US fans a price of around $66 plus shipping, compared to $130 on the US site.

Just ordered this from Sainsburys Entertainment for £44.99:
https://www.sainsburysentertainment.co.uk/music/Steve-Hackett/Premonitions-The-Charisma-Recordings-1975-1983/MUS-REL-0004849072
Presumably thats the download?
Wonderful offer. Just ordered. Can’t have enough Hackett in the house ;-)
$88 shipped to U.S. destinations. Not bad, I paid $120 shipped when it came out.
Good spot this….
I hesitated, how much Hackett do you need?… but in the end it is an easter treat for me even tho it will take 10 days or so to filter thru (probably).
Ciao.
Also at 74 Euro on Amazon.DE and that includes free shipping to Belgium e.g. :-)
The box is around 75,– EUR on amazon.de (Germany).
This might be cheaper for US customers, as amazon.it charges 10.– + 5,– per kg to the US whereas amazon.de charges 3.– + 3.– per kg.
So a 9.– Euro savings in postage to the US if ordered via amazon.de
Here’s the link to shipment charges on amazon.de:
