  1. Cherry Red’s “Ultimate”-4cd-take on Adeva’s self titled debut album is currently on sale at amazon.de for around 25 € . 13 left at the time of writing.

  2. On Amazon UK:

    Lou Reed’s New York super deluxe box (2LP/3CD/DVD) is back down to £45

    A few £££ off the 8CD Fleetwood Mac 1969-1974 box, down to £23. Cheapest it’s been on the UK store.

    1. Looks like they’re price matching a deal at HMV – picked up the Joni Mitchell box set mentioned a couple of comments above in the same set of deals.

      Not an amazing set of price drops but a few £££s off a few bits (eg. Fleetwood Mac Live Super Deluxe Edition for £50)

  3. I always found the references to special offers valuable. Have already bought in France or Spain (from Germany). Since Brexit, however, the focus seems to have been solely on offers from the UK. That is a great pity and makes it uninteresting for EU Europeans. There were similar comments from the US before.

    The same applies to the SDE shop. That might still work for top-acts like Tears For Fears. Wouldn’t trading partners in the EU and the US make sense for you? As much as I like the site and the informations, it’s getting too GB-specific for me. Another stupid consequence of the Brexit…

    I actually never had the impression that you “just” wanted to be a “local hero”….

    1. If Amazon Germany, France, Italy, Spain, U.S.A have deals involving CDs/LPs/Box Sets/Bluray/DVDs I reckon Paul makes us aware of them all. Maybe there are currently more deals at Amazon U.K. (AKA The Dodgers) then this site will seem to favour the U.K.

      I cannot speak for Paul but I think he puts the interests of visiters to the S.D.E. first, maybe not their wallets/bank balance! I think you owe Paul an apology for your comments re: “local hero”

      For your information I think you`ll find the greater majority of Brits visiting this site voted to remain in the E.U.

      1. I remember a time when all the ‘deals’ seemed to be in the USA. I just wished our US friends good luck in getting them. It is just how it is.

        I also echo Matt’s comment, the more people list deals that they spot, wherever in the world, the better it is for all of us.

    2. Ridiculous comment, deals are published as soon as people are aware of them no matter where they are as far as I can see. Look for some local deals and put them up, simples !

    3. Don’t underestimate the importance and potential of sde outside the UK. SDE is, at least here in Germany, always a contact point for information and news.

      SDE is (still) part of many comments in hi-fi and music forums…

    1. If you don’t have it, it is good though if you have the DVD, I’d stick with it. The reason being I have both, I got the DVD in a local record shop that’s now gone in Belfast on double DVD for £10 and the blu ray on Amazon for £43 at the time and really apart from some of the extras that are different ie there are extras on the DVD that aren’t on the blu ray and vice versa, the only real advantage is that you have the full concert on one disc as opposed to being split over 2 and even then it’s still split on the blu ray as it comes up with a part 2 bit on the screen when progressing to the second bit of the concert which features Dark Side Of The Moon in its entirety plus a few other songs. Picture quality isn’t any better as you get 2 horrible black bars down the side of the screen on the blu ray which you don’t get on the DVD and because it was originally recorded on video tape there’s only so much you can do with the picture. Bottom line is caution advised. One thing I did discover though was that the “pulse” of the red light on the box is in time with the heartbeat when you play the Dark Side Of The Moon LP! Spooky!

  4. Also out this week:
    The Americans – ‘Stand True’
    The Waterboys – ‘All Souls Hill’

    My turntable is gonna be busy this weekend (mind you it’s busy throughout the week), those two albums above, 3 Neil Young Bootleg Series LPs, Shakey’s Original Release Series 4LP Box Set, my RSD copy of the Pearls Before Swine LP is also due.

    I need to have another album cull, bought loads of albums (CDs/LPs) so far this year and I’m running out of room. I also need to raise funds for orders not yet released, Wilco, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Horselips and more.

  5. I had emailed Paul about this one: Mansun Six 21st Anniversary edition (3 cd and 1 dvd) is currently £13.32
    https://amzn.to/3s6by8N
    I actually ordered it at £9.06 thinking it would get cancelled (this has happened before) but I received it on Wednesday. I think it came from Germany?
    When you go to the page it will be at £40ish but look to the new and used and that’s where sold by Amazon is.

    1. Amazon always list the lowest available price – their own listing is in the ‘Used & new’ as its out of stock currently with no defined delivery date, so it may arrive next week, 6 months from now or never as they cannot confirm when they will get more stock, thats why the main page shows the secondary seller price.

  6. Reasonably good sale at Abba store uk on Voyager items – if anybody still hasn’t got it.
    This includes all the store exclusives – including the allegedly previously sold out colour vinyls and picture discs

    1. Hi again, Simon. Problem solved. There’s an email in my account from the Abba Voyage site with sale link. Sale hadn’t been accessible when I initially logged onto the site via Google search. Cheers.

  7. In case anyone is still hanging on like me for a decent price on Bob Dylan’s ‘Springtime In New’ York box set. This is normally around £95+ in UK, spotted on Amazon Germany at £74 plus £4 postage.

  8. It’s a lottery how Amazon pack LPs. I have received them in proper record mailers, proper record mailers inside an oversized box, oversized boxes with crumpled paper but fortunately never with no box (only the address label stuck on the LP.

    1. I had major problems with Amazon years ago with The Smith’s studio box set. I had to send 5 copies back as they were damaged due to being put in a large box with no packaging inside. The box set is heavy and bounced around in the box damaging the corners and the top of the record covers. Despite giving packaging feedback it never changed. Amazon actually threatened to close my account as I was returning the items. I have noticed that in the aftersales market it can be difficult to find a Smith’s box set that is not damaged, I think Amazon are responsible for the damaged of these box sets which is sacrilege.

    2. Exactly this. I still chance them when it’s special offer time but try to avoid them after my last vinyl from them was squeezed into a calendar mailer then into an oversized box?!? Record was warped good and proper

  9. Amazon hit a new low today… ordered the Cat Stevens boxset and they didn’t even bother to put it in a box. Just stuck the shipping label directly to it. Corners on the front are all bent in, so annoying.

    1. And that’s one of the MANY reasons why i don’t shop from amazon anymore. Support a owner operated store that cares for its product and actually packs it themselves. You’ve got loads in the UK.

    2. Such a shame to send it in such a way that it was going to be damaged. It’s just stupidity. On the opposite side I received an LP last week in a huge box with half a forest of crumpled packing paper around it……

      1. Last week, I placed an order for 12 Plenty kitchen towels. The towels came in the usual supermarket plastic packs of 6. However, each of the packs was contained within an appropriate size cardboard box. The two boxes of 6 were then housed in a much bigger box. The bigger box was then inside an even bigger box with the customary sparse wrapping paper. It was like some Russian doll exercise just to get to about £10 worth of kitchen towels…

    3. Sad and annoying. However, there’s an easy way to avoid this. At checkout, always tick the box saying “ship in Amazon packaging”. It says ” this item will be delivered in packaging that reveals the contents” – unless you tick the box. If you don’t tick it, you get shrink-wrap with a label….

    4. On the listing it says “Item arrives in packaging that reveals what’s inside. To hide it, choose Ship in Amazon packaging at checkout”.
      I know its wrong by Amazon but you have to watch out for this and select the option to ship in Amazon
      packaging at checkout.
      Amazon don’t care its more important for fast packing and dispatching items, its actually more cost effective for them that way, speed is money.
      Hope this helps for the next time you order from Amazon.

      1. It’s the same as the free postage. It defaults to a charge and you have to pick the radio button for FREE.

        Bought all the 4 Ferry albums above and all four required a selection of Amazon packaging individually.

        Quite a lot of vinyl going at a good price recently so maybe it one of those ways of facilitating those discounts. Bang a sticker on the album; no packaging costs – boxes and packing time.

    5. For Amazon US, I’ve found better packaging experiences by selecting or noting the item is a gift. They tend to pack it better, use a box for heavier SDE releases vs padded mailers. Never underestimate those Amazon pickers…I just received a 12 pack of microfiber cloths delivered in a box with with edge to edge bubblewrap.

      1. Must try that. My last three orders from Amazon US have been come in bubblewrap envelopes rather than cardboard boxes. End result is scuffed and cracked box sets. They offer a replacement for free but ship it in the exact same flimsy packaging.

    6. I had that recently with a The The box set, luckily it wasn’t that bad and just needed a wipe down from dirt. As CD Addict pointed out, I now tick the “gift” box, but even then there’s no guarantees. Last year I bought a Bob Dylan box set from Amazon UK as it was on sale, it arrived to the US a total mess as the box was just placed in a box 10 times its size with no bubble wrap or any protection.

  10. Looks like there will soon be a new analogue format,t bone Burnett has been working with Dylan ,Thea’s things look like records but are aluminium,I think!!
    Promises to be a game changer ,

  11. The Emerson, Lake and Palmer 10 LP live box set Out Of This World is currently available on Amazon UK for a few pence over £74 . It was priced between £120 and £130 when first released last year.

  12. Elton John’s Jewel Box CD set is available new from HMV on Ebay for £46.99. Mine has just arrived (well packaged and free tracked delivery) and looks a lovely collection for a great price.

  13. I’m considering buying Steven Wilson’s TFB at the deal price of £11.49 – it’s a good deal. So I look around and see the 12″ singles for 12 Things I Forgot at £7.73 and Eminent Sleaze at £8.86, which is also pretty good. Next up is the white vinyl version of TFB at £12.49, which is also a very good price. Then I think, well, I’ve already got the red vinyl version and the box set, so do I need any of it, or do I desire all, or some of it?

    Answers on a postcard!

    It’s not the future biting, it’s the purchasing bug gnawing away.

      1. Asking yourself if you need something will only hold you back for so long. There are the “no brainers” and the instabuys but then pretty much everything else between that and “Wouldn’t want it even if it was free” has some level of internal bargaining. Whether price, desirability, new stuff, pretty stuff, packaging vs. Money / space / marriage / relationship / duplication.

        I asked myself if I needed the Go West but pressed buy within an hour or so. I asked myself if I needed the Marillion Fugazi 4LP and it’s still sitting in my wants list a few months later. I don’t need it but at some level I want it and if it drops “just a few pounds more” maybe.

        Currently occupying that part of my brain that should know better is the Frankie RSD altered reels release. I don’t think I would even bargain quite as hard with the Grim Reaper.

        I think on some level nearly all of us here feel that torment over something.

        1. I’ve got the solution – find something else that’s really desirable! After I posted my thoughts this morning, Paul Buchanan’s instagram page has the news that his solo album, Mid Air is getting a two lp remastered release, with the additional tracks that featured on the original 2 cd version. I’ve the 2 cd version and it’s a beautiful album.

          I did laugh at your thoughts on the conundrum of deciphering the pulls and pushes of ‘to buy or not to buy’

  14. Not sure if it’s a decent price or not (haven’t been paying much attention to this set) but I noticed that the 2CD/LP Brian May – Back To The Light collectors edition box is showing as a price drop down to £37 on Amazon UK.

    1. Thanks Matt D, finally given in at £37 from Amazon. Even though I already have the 2CD and the Queen store exclusive pic disc. It is a great price, have to see if Another World drops in a few months too as £85 is way too much.

    1. Thanks – excellent deal. For info, the other two releases (Boys and Girls and Lets Stick Together are €8 currently on Amazon France, which works out £11.41 to the UK!

    1. Likewise, the Super Deluxe of Cahoots, priced down from a knee-trembling, eye-rolling $150 to about 66 bucks. This has to be proof that the label overplayed its hand with The Band reissues… Cahoots just isn’t the kind of album that merits such a premium price. But at 60% off… Yeah, I can see that. Maybe.

  15. On Amazon UK

    Stones – Goats Head Soup super deluxe back to £40

    Stones – Tattoo You super deluxe is £66

    And I think there’s a 50% promo on loads of recent-ish 2CD deluxe editions…

    Nirvana – Nevermind 30th 2CD is £6.49

    Stones – Tattoo You 2CD is £7.49

    Tears For Fears – Seeds Of Love 2CD is £5.49

    Rory Gallagher – self titled 50th 2CD is £6.49

    Beach Boys – Feel Flows 2CD is £6.98

  16. Back up to £73 now, which is about what I paid last year. Despite being a huge fan, these Cat Stevens box sets really aren’t worth more than £50 on release. I only buy them for the Hi-Res mix and there’s rarely much in the way of extra material once the live tracks are ignored. And why do they always wait until after release before miraculously finding an old “lost” video in the archives and restoring it or else producing new video after release. I’ll be very happy if and when they rescan, restore and release The Earth Tour (Majicat) concert in HD with a good hi-res sound mix.

  17. Great Shout Paul Teaser for £45, I’m on a bit of a roll today just got a new copy of the Beatles Let it be for £62 off ebay, Roll On The Bargains Two Great box sets for just over £100 well pleased
