Amazon Italy price now €219 :)
Nice spot, thanks.
great, it arrived here today!
thanks for the tip
My Boxset is not here .Amazon says ” Not shipped yet ” :-( I don´t know why it takes so much time, this time.
It’s also on a Flash sale back on Amazon.fr, but at a hefty [compared to 36 hours ago] 245 Euros aka £196
Ignore my utter garbage re the Stones Vinyl Box [2 separate windows open], what I meant to say was that Amazon.fr have the very nice Doors ‘Singles’ Vinyl Box at just £93 at the moment.
My set has just arrived and superbly packaged. Can’t wait to start listening.
Thanks again Paul! Upon receiving the deal alert, I ordered mine from Amazon France and it was delivered this morning, fantastic service and another SDE coup!
Great stuff! Enjoy…

i love you !!!
phew!, looks like i got in in the nick of time. brilliant ‘heads up’ paul. ‘onya buddy!
No go for me….trying to cut back this year ….( Bowie box no3 excluded…looking forward to that).
The Air ‘Twentyears’ box set is 36 euro at the minute. Bargain!
I’m sobbing in my beer. This is the boxset I really wanted, at a price I would have stretched the plastic for! Gutted :( If only I hadn’t been working today.
Damn, missed it. I should check my emails more often! Thanks for the heads up though Paul.
soldout it seems!
Looks as though this has finished now. I hope everyone who wanted one got one!
Thanks to Narendra Kumar A – ordered the Air box set. Just under £29 inc p&p. That’s the first ‘don’t need but want’ purchase of the year. Keep up the excellent work Paul. Brilliant site.
Even lower now 147 Euro’s!!!
That’s my credit card bill up again!
Even cheaper now, just EUR 147,07 while I’m writing!
Thanks Paul! Just bought, deal definitely still available. €160 less tax incl shipping if you’re outside the EU.
Paul – many thanks (again). The first purchase of 2017 and a great way to start.
Damn you Mr Sinclair!!!
@Laufi, Paolo, Spot.
Thanks for the info. Makes sense in what you all said about the 160 mono/320 stereo, although if memory serves me correct, The Beatles in Mono was @ 320 but hey, maybe that was just overkill?
Actually, Dio, Rihanna and Black Eyed Peas cheap too.
Was the Rihanna box set discounted? I’ve been keeping an eye on it, but I think it’s been 254,99 all day.
good spotting! i bought it even before getting here because i was browsing the winter sales and saw it. 175€
I was very tempted. The thing is I only have room for another 40-50 LPs and I already have the CD box so I have to select LPs with the question, ‘do I really need this?’, thanks Paul for the alert.
Air – The Virgin Suicides 15th Anniversary Limited Deluxe Box is available on Amazon.fr for around Euro 27 (Usual price Euro 69) Well worth the price for 2LPs+1EP+2CDs+1DVD+download
Pulled trigger…thats the price i was looking for..thanks paul…now just to track down a deal on the scorpions vinyl box
Proceed with caution re the Scorpions box. I nearly bought from emp for around £100 middle of last year. I did some research regarding the pressing quality & a number of people on the stevehoffman forums reckoned they were far from great. Original pressings are superb apparently & can be found on discogs for similar amounts of money.
Thanks Paul. Unbelievable price – it’s a no brainier – just ordered it now. My first music purchase for 2017. A good start to the year. Thanks again.
Thanks for the hint, Paul! :-)
@Roel: infact, a mono 160 kbps mp3 should be the same than a stereo 320 kbps, qualitywise ;-)
The exchange rate seems to cause a different price. Actual GBP price with postage is showing as £165.08.
Deal still going. Got this and 3 Bjork vinyls for $199… including shipping!
Volta and Biophilla were both under €7 each!
Thanks Paul!
I thought it had gone too as it would not proceed. However, I have just tried again and my order was accepted. Hope the packaging is good. My Beatles box set from Amazon Germany was slightly damaged, corner dinged, as not well packaged. I haven’t returned it as I guess I would not get a replacement and the price was good.
Thanks again for your alerts (costing me a fortune discovering your site).
Get them to phone you Peter, you go through the contact us links, then you can leave your number and they call you back. They may replace it or you can negotiate up to 33% off, though you already have a brgain.
You Should have complained on your box set getting damaged, I received the Tom Petty Vol 2 box set Slightly damaged, I went absolutely mad at Amazon for their poor packaging and delayed delivery, it dissapeared for 2 weeks en route, it was just put in a much bigger box and zero protection, and just loosely banging around, great packaging considering it cost nearly £250.00 – not! I sent several e Mails, and kept on at them, in the end they sent me a replacement for free!
Thanks Paul for this great ‘SDE deal alert’ – ordered. Really enjoy the quality writing, interviews and discussions – read them all!
It’s gone from Amazon.fr. Had it carted then the cart dropped it. No longer available at that price. FUCK!!!
No it hasn’t gone. I’ve just checked it – still there and still adding to cart fine. DEAL IS STILL AVAILABLE PEOPLE.
Bloody hell Paul. I was dreading an alert for this box set. Just received mine 3 days ago. Thought I had a bargain at €188 (after vat deduction) from Amazon Fr. Well, it still is a good price and I’m happy!!
On another note, as I’m not eligible for Amazon’s free auto rip (being in Australia), I used the download code (Universal’s Sound of vinyl) contained in the box. To my absolute disgust & horror, the download is at 160kbps. I cannot believe that for such a so called high end & high priced product, they only provided a 160kbps download. Given that nearly all their vinyl releases come with 320kbps downloads, I cannot fathom why they would put “The Stones” in at 160. Has anyone else downloaded this box set?? No wonder why people resort to unofficial means.
I’m not an expert in mp3 encoding, but isn’t 160 exactly what you get for mono files, when stereo files of the same quality would have 320 kbps? Are those files in true mono?
This is true
Maybe the downloads are 160 instead of 320kbps because they’re mono, and so only half as much data is needed?
Great deal. Have been waiting for price to drop on this for ages. Merci.
Awesome stuff Paul. So cheap!!! Less than $240 AUD.
Thanks Paul!
It’s the first day of annual sales in France, so you may see huge deals on French sites (Amazon.fr, Fnac.com) appearing.
For instance, Donna Summer’s The vinyl collection – 8 LP is at half its usual price on fnac.com.
(57€):

Thanks so much for letting us know about this deal. Grabbed a box set!
Insomnia pays off!!! Thanks!!!
