  1. @Colin MacKenzie
    Thank you very much for the amazon discount code DISCOUNT5P.
    The GBP 5.– discount also worked for me – I used it for the pre-order of the 1999 super deluxe cd box set which I had missed last year.

  2. Fearing the Prince’s SOTT vinyl box would sell out like the 1999 box, I ordered it straight away. Along with a load of other goodies from the Prince Store.
    That price is a bit of a kick in the teeth. :-(
    Especially as I also bought the vinyl SOTT and they then issued a pic disc for Record Store Day.
    On top of all that, the order was split into two packages and fecking customs charged me double! Currently in dispute with them.
    Should have just bought it locally.
    :-(

  3. Amazon UK have a £5 off bonus for purchases over £25.
    Get £5 of £25 – instantly, with code DISCOUNT5P
    Offer valid on products sold and shipped by Amazon. Limited to the first 10,000 coupons. See conditions.

    1. Thanks for this – I also got the email last week which didn’t work, but today it has! Put it with a £20 Christmas voucher and got Wildflowers And All The Rest 4CD set for just over £12, very happy.

  4. Having nearly forgotten I’d ordered it my £40 Abbey Road deluxe finally arrived from Rarewaves today. Worth the wait at that price of course!

    1. Mine too. How was yours packed? Mine was in nothing but a thin polythene mailer. They literally might as well have stuck an address label on the shrink wrap. How it got through the post pretty much undamaged I have no idea.

  5. Stereolab have a new Switched On collection out in Feb. If you blinked you missed the super limited colour vinyl version. The official website only has boring old black vinyl and standard CD versions left, but Rough Trade and Banquet have the limited mirrorbord CD should you fancy it.

  6. The Bryan Ferry offer ends 23:59 GMT tomorrow (Sunday), just in case anyone is sitting on whether to buy or not (which is what I usually do and then leave it too late).

  7. I just purchased the SOTT SDL on vinyl. What’s maybe interesting to know for EU customers is that tax is first deducted and than added again as import fees. In the cart, product price reduces to about £150, than £25 as import fees are added. Together with the promocode DISCOUNT5P, I paid all in all £180,49 with shipping to Germany! Thanks Paul for the heads up!

  8. Just a pointer to anyone still looking for Prince’s 1999 SDL CD box set, it’s currently (15/1/21) £67.69 from Amazon UK (though it’s’ not the listing page main offer, that’s from Rarewaves at £98, you have to click on the other sellers option and scroll down). I bought mine for £55 just as it was starting to sell out on original release so £67 is not a bad price given how high the prices still are for it when you can find one elsewhere.

  9. For people interested in Black Crowes related product, Chris Robinson Brotherhood’s 3rd album “Phosphorescent Harvest” is currently on Amazon UK for £11.59! This is DOUBLE COLOURED VINYL + 7″. The single contains the CD bonus track “Humboldt Windchimes” and a further vinyl exclusive bonus track “Star Crossed Lonely Sailor”. The 12″ records are Orange (disc 1) and Maroon (disc 2) vinyl. The 7″ is black but comes in its own picture sleeve and it’s all in a very nice gatefold and comes with an MP3 download for all 12 tracks (including the bonus ones). If you like the Crowes, buy it!

      1. Re : prince sott vinyl set
        There was also no guarantee that you could get a set months or even weeks after release, because the 1999 set sold out very quickly and there was no indication that sott would be any different. However, they must have manufactured much greater volume of sets for sott!
        My personal opinion is that the RRP was too high anyway, but …supply and demand , fear of missing out, etc etc and here we are at almost £100 off !
        Have you ever felt life is like looking for a penny off a sde in a store sale?

    1. I suspect Warners pressed more of SOTT because it is such an iconic album – couple that with the fact that it’s already a bigger and more expensive box and it’s no real surprise that it is still hanging around several months after release (the 1999 box box by contrast seemed to sell out almost instantly).
      I wouldn’t be surprised if this drops still further.

    2. That’s life ! You obviously wanted the set enough to buy it at full price when it first came out & have enjoyed it for 6 months. Half the things I buy end up in January or summer sales 6 months after I bought them (McCartney flaming pie deluxe for example) but that happens with everything & I make a call as to whether I want an item now or I want to wait on the off chance of a price reduction. I can pay £30 for a hardback book or wait until it comes out in paperback & pay £8.99 – it depends on whether I want to wait or not. Unless it’s a very limited edition & you’re worried about missing out it sounds like your default position would be to hold off on any purchases until they hit a price you’re happy to pay.

    1. I disagree strongly. This reissue is above par on all fronts (including the beautiful and interesting book) and has in many places been voted as THE best reissue of 2020. At this price it is a really great deal.

  10. The Rolling Stones / Various Artists – Rock and Roll Circus TRIPLE VINYL, down to £36.48 on Amazon UK or Chalkys_UK on ebay (which probably started the price drop).

  11. Does anyone know how it will be with customs fees and added taxes when shipping to Sweden? I find conflicting information on the internets. Any clarifications would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks for the great work Paul!

    1. Hey Henrik.
      In terms of VAT + taxation – the following Is the case in Denmark (I take this Is very similar in Sweden also):
      Music from the UK, but not manufactered in the UK above £10 + pp: VAT is added (25%) + toll (varies according to the type of good) a purchase of £50 +pp would probably add an additional £10 + handling fee of £20. So a purhase of £50+pp now totals £92,5
      If the music Is manufactured in the UK, no toll Is added.
      This Is a true hard brexit!

      1. Thanks Carsten.
        So the Bowie live albums should be safe, manufactered in the UK. I wonder how about Neil Young’s coming albums, if bought from the Greedy Hand store in the UK, like Down in the rust bucket, offical bootlegs series and so on… I guess I will find out. :-)

    1. This has been ridiculously cheap for a long time. It is a superb set. 2cd+DVD.
      Weller at his most intimate, with absolutely gorgeous arrangements.

  12. slightly off the track here. don’t know if this has been mentioned on the site but over at springsteens official site bruce is releasing a 24 cd box set containing 8 of his concerts from the 1978 tour. these have previously been available (and still are) for download but these are factory pressed cds. the price is around $180. when this was first announced a couple of weeks ago they were selling the empty boxes for i think $24 but they sold out within minutes.

  13. Townsend music have a 50% off sale on some stock. Some of the stuff is rubbish but I did get the Sparks A Steady Drip Drip Drip double Picture Disc for £12.50 and Past Tense Best of Sparks Triple Vinyl for £15. Still on sale if anyone is interested.

        1. Unfortunately this is the case, which considering Northern Ireland is still in the EU single market, seems bizarre.
          What are Amazon playing at?

          1. Not just Brexit. Several European countries have stopped international shipping (even to other EU countries) because of new EU regulations about international VAT. See for example bol.com (and I’ve had similar replies from amazon.nl). Seems like the EU single market is shutting down anway.

          1. Sorry Paul, this is important. They will only ship to GB, not to the UK. They won’t ship anything to Northern Ireland. Believe me, I have tried, for a variety of items, including the deals that you have recommended recently…….

          2. Seems to be total confusion,
            As for Amazon Germany, tried a friend’s address in England, no problem. Tried my Northern Ireland address and no delivery.
            Amazon.com are also not shipping to Northern Ireland neither.
            We’ve been ostracised!

  14. Quick heads up. I just received an email from Sound of Vinyl. The Sting Duets vinyl with signed art card is now available, limited to two per customer.

        1. I wonder if he is referring to the Sting LP. The Sting LP can be purchased by anyone, however the version with the signed card is not available (at least here in Canada, and most likely all outside of UK for some stupid reason)

        2. The Sting album with the signed card is not available outside of UK even though the vinyl without the signed card is. It makes no sense.
          I guess the only option is find a UK friend and have them ship it.

          1. Hmmmm. that’s an Idea…
            If people wanted to buy things that were only available to UK using my address, and when it arrives I would let them know how much the postage to them would be, plus maybe 10% handling fee…
            That must be cheaper than buying from eBay scalpers.
            And it would prop up my pension.
