Bowie Width of a Circle currently an incredible £11.48 from Amazon (not a 3rd party seller)
Oh no, it’s gone up (to £11.53) :-)
Crowded House latest album Dreamers Are Waiting is £12.99 on Coloured Vinyl at Amazon and lowest its ever been > https://amzn.to/34jDZai
Wow… great price!
“Arrives in packaging that shows etc” – don’t forget to select amazon packaging otherwise it will arrive trashed with a label stuck on the shrink wrap.
20% sale on stuff at Chalky’s and Music Magpie on eBay – I know that a lot of people have had issues with them but if you’re willing to take a punt and do a lot of trawling there’s some big savings available. Code is LOVE20OFF.
Thanks Matt. I will have a search.
Bob Marley set now even cheaper at €13.05!
Typical. I buy a deal and it gets cheaper :-)
Never mind still great value at $14.99, and its now been shipped. Fingers crossed will receive beginning of next week.
Wow!! Ordered :)
Just to note that the sign of the times SDE deal listed above is still on.
New Order – Movement (Definitive Edition) LP/2CD/DVD) is right down to £68 on Amazon UK.
It’s about time the Let It Be SDE came down to a sensible price. And not just the amazon price of £83 which is the maximum price it should have been to start with. Has it been under £80 anywhere yet?
I was thinking the same, but with all the other activity going on around this album/film/rooftop concert, etc. I figured the price would stay around that for a while yet. And I’m not in any rush :)
It’s £73 at the moment
Strike that, it’s £73 on the US Amazon, add £11 for postage..
I have noticed that the blu-ray/CD set of Script for a Jester’s Tear is back in general circulation at about £25. Amazon UK currently have stock. I hope The Clutching at Straws set comes back like this too as I missed it first time around.
Abba Voyage Deluxe ECO Box reduced to £9.99 on amazon. Originally £18.99.
https://amzn.to/3s2mumY
Amazon Uk : The brand new release of Ozric Tentacles, the 6 discs boxset «Travelling The Great Circle: From Pungent Effulgent To Jurassic Shift» is 21 % discount, from £75 to £60
I just received an email from Fire Records… 30% off (excludes pre-orders) using the code 30FIRE2022
The code is good until Sunday January 30th.
Amazon in Germany has also a great deal for Clannad’s In a lifetime (Deluxe bookpack edition): € 36,99
Thanks Pijnenburg, got the box today around 4PM!!
Happy to share, although mine is not even dispatched yet. Amazon works in mysterious ways…
Oasis – Knebworth 2CD/DVD is down to £14.50 on Amazon UK
https://amzn.to/3L2Yr0b
Couple of other bits
Chemical Brothers – Surrender 3CD/DVD box is £16.50
Primal Scream – Screamadelica Singles vinyl box is down a bit more to £67
Pink Floyd – Knebworth CD is down to £5
My PF Knebworth CD arrived this afternoon. The quality of the print is shockingly bad, so wondering if I have a bad one (counterfeit?) or if that’s just the way it is. Is anyone able to comment? I’ll probably return it.
Mine arrived today and it’s fine. Equivalent to the digipack Experience Editions from 10ish years ago.
Just ordered the Prince one after much procrastination on the matter due to it arriving with some folk and the discs were scratched. Will have to examine it closely upon arrival. Fingers crossed!
The Dylan 4CD Another Self Portrait box is £53 on Amazon DE. Remains my favourite Bootleg Series box due to the way it forces a reappraisal of the Self Portrait album (side note – if you already own Self Portrait on standalone CD you can probably stick to the 2CD version of this Bootleg release – you’d miss out on the really decent Isle Of Wight Festival CD but the 4th disc is just the original album remastered and the really good stuff is on those first two outtakes CDs).
https://amzn.to/3AD4OlV
As of 06:28 GMT the Bob Marley sets are back on offer for €14.99.
Ordered, thanks. Price looks to be shifting all the time!
All you guys complaining that you`ve missed the Bob Marley bargain Box Set deal, it has been hovering around £17/€20/$23 for months for 11CDs!
How much of a bargain do you want?
So you’d prefer to pay more than you need to?
i prefer to listen and enjoy something as soon as possible. I paid £14 for my box set when it was first released. The price of this box set, as I stated above has been around £17 since it
s release and below that price on many occasions. I appreciate lots of people do not have bottomless pockets, myself included but waiting to save a couple of £s on an item that is already VERY cheap...like I said I prefer to get something I want ASAP.
Ive just paid £113 for The Band
Cahoots
S.D.E. knowing that in 12 months it will be available for half the price and I`m not bothered. I will have had 12 months of enjoyment from this box set, you cannot put a price on that.I understand your point. I’m waiting not so patiently on a serious price drop on All Things Must Pass, Teaser and the Firecat, and All That You Can’t Leave Behind. The thrill of owning something on first release does, for me too, exceed the satisfaction of making a significant saving somewhere down the line, but now the 70’s are half a century ago, there’s an awful lot of great product out there, with much more to come and frustratingly I can’t afford to dive in on Day 1 very often.
Fair points and thanks for the considered reply. I have waited years to explore Marley’s work so a few more days or weeks won’t hurt. I do want to get things at the lowest price, though. It’s difficult to justify certain purchases in a time of rising bills and inflation so a few ££ saved here and there makes a big difference.
well you can actually, £56.50
I was lucky enough to catch this deal. I already have quite a few Bob Marley albums on vinyl and two disc SDE releases of quite a few of the albums plus the original CD box set compilation release. For me this wasn’t an essential release but at this price nice to fill a couple of gaps and give me an excuse to revisit his catalogue again
Exactly this, I see it on here time and time again folk complaining the deal has gone but it’s still available for a little more.
Honestly sometimes I wonder are folk just buying the deal.
Second time in a row I have missed the Marley deal by mere minutes. Will this offer return?
It’s back and I just grabbed it finally at EUR 14.99. (as at 14:09 GMT)
Gone now.
Back again as of 10:11 27/01/22.
Well I’m either not quick enough, or the deal has finished already, but I can’t access the Bob Marley offer on Amazon.de :(
That’s because amazon has sold out of its stock & its now only available through 3rd party sellers
deal for marley gone 14 minutes after the email arrived.
The new cd version of Now That’s What I Call Christmas has just dropped to £5 on Amazon.uk. May I be the first to wish you all a Merry Christmas 2022 ( or probably the last to wish you Merry Christmas 2021).

Bargains…
The Depeche Mode 12″ box sets are down to varying prices over at Rough Trade.
NOW That’s What I Call 12″ 80s: Extended is currently half the original price at £5 on Amazon UK.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B09B4G1K87
T’Pau back down to £3
Mine arrived. £3 is about the right price. It’s now scaring off magpies.
To be honest Tim, I agree. It’s not my cup of tea and I haven’t bought it, but we all have differing tastes and it is cheap.
David Bowie Width Of A Circle down to £12.86 Amazon uk . Lowest price yet ?
Thanks. I have gone for this.
Bob The Complete Island Recordings (11 cd’s) is back again on amazon.de for only 14,99 euro!
Cheers for the post, got it this time
Back up to EUR 31,99 now :(
Back down to £12.50 again.
Gone now
Well, that Steve Miller box from Germany was a very delightful surprise! I didn’t look too close when I ordered it (prompted but its posting here), so was expecting one of those old fashioned ‘fat’ boxes with 4 discs. Shows my age … Still, I thought a decent price for 4 discs. What I got was a hardback, 3-D image, 10 inch book, heavy and rich, with a range of extras (including photos, a poster and 10 plectrums?!) – all very sumptuously presented. It felt like a marvellous and unexpected treat!
A few people have mentioned the townsend sale. This also includes the latest Garbage re-issues – CDs @ £5
Also a couple of Sparks items – Steady Drip Pic Disc – £15 / CD – £5 and GSAV red vinyl – £15. You have to wade through the endless JLS and Steps cassettes to see them!
I know it’s not a deal, but there’s a gorgeous japanese SHM-CD version of Hot Rocks that will be released tomorrow and available in Europe. The package is stunning, there are exclusive photos and a lyrics booklet.

Thank you for this Mr. Remi.
I have never placed an order with fnac.com before, do you know if they are reliable?
I’ve used them… they’re fine!
They’re absolutely fine. It’s a national franchise, very reliable.
And thank’s for your reply too Mr. Remi, also very much appreciated.
Thank’s for your reply Mr. Sinclair, very much appreciated.
I bought mine from Amazon UK, a most reasonable £22.

There’s a lot more on there in various formats as well. Some signed & rsd vinyl. Warning, their postage costs are usually pricey.
3CD Essential Frankie Goes To Hollywood now only £4.99 on Amazon UK! I pulled the trigger at £5.99 yesterday so could have saved a massive £1 if I’d waited, but less than £2 per CD is pretty good.
HMV had Essential FGTH at £5.99 last week. Ordered it.
Prince’s “Sign” is now£86.56 (9:21 a.m. Wednesday Jan. 19 North American eastern time)
SOTT boxset is finally at the price it should have been at the start
With respect Neil, I don’t see many 9 disc deluxe editions of this quality (the box and the music) retailing at £70 on day 1. I wish they were! I paid £100 I think, and considered that a great price. Compared to most boxes of unreleased material, I think this was great value. Don’t get me started on the recent Welcome2America deluxe though…
There is a lot of really good stuff in that box. Three discs of unreleased tracks, an unreleased concert on audio and another on DVD, plus the remastered main album and a host of single mixes. The CD box set was always pretty good value.
Absolutely agree with you Neil. I look at box sets like the King Crimson series where you get something like “Starless” 23 CD’s and 4 DVD/Blu Ray, now that’s a £100 box set. I waited and got mine for £85. Tangerine Dream In Search Of Hades 17CD and 2 Blu Ray retail £80ish I got mine for £50. Unreleased or not a general rule is £5 a disc for me, it used to be that way the Record Companies are trying for £12 – £15 a disc. We are being ripped off.
Curiosity Killed the Cat – misfits – Mercury years 4CD box set £10 Amazon UK
Thanks for that tip!
The Band – Stage Fright 50th Super Deluxe is down to £58 on Amazon DE
https://amzn.to/3nzKb4P
And the self-titled 50th Super Deluxe is £67 (both boxes for sub-£130 is actually a really decent haul)
https://amzn.to/3Ih6vI9
A couple of weeks ago I was browsing HHV and found the Stage Fright box for €21.99 and the self-titled box for €29.99!!! I thought it was a mistake or something and waited for a minute or two in disbelief. I ordered both and they arrived within the week. Both were brand new!! I was, and still am, shocked. Amazing value. Cahoots was also there for €21.99 but I didn’t pull the trigger on that one.
Great price on the Prince – Sign O The Times 8CD/DVD Super Deluxe on Amazon UK – a fantastic price at £71
Listed as limited time deal, so it’ll go quick I imagine.
https://amzn.to/3I9TJeG
Cheers for the tips, Matt.
Ordered the Steve Miller box yesterday whilst the deal was on at Amazon Germany and amazed to see it is already out for delivery this afternoon. Great service.
Mine arrived yesterday. There’s clearly some background jiggerypokery going on as my copy clearly has its origins in the U.K. rather than Germany, whereas the Bob Marley set that I ordered at the same time is currently in a customs shed in Belgium having started its journey in Spain.
Def Leppard Vol. 3 Nine disc vinyl box set a ridiculous price of only £50 on usa Amazon.
https://amzn.to/3tGpnMP
I was lucky enough to get the Marley box set on Amazon France when it was on offer, but that deal at Amazon Germany was an even better deal l believe. The Tpau deal is very good. Cover isn’t the greatest, but it’s well worth £3.
Violent Femmes’ Why Do Birds Sing? 2 CD deluxe edition currently 50% off at least on Amazon UK. I picked up a copy for under £3 recently.
That’s an amazing price – nice one! I’ve been enjoying that reissue since early October 2021…disc two with the 49 minute live show at The Boathouse in 1991 is a blast. I remember seeing The Femmes in Chicago in 1986 when Dwight Yoakam was the supporting/first act…it was insantity. Dwight played three songs with his back taunting a booing crowd and finally turned around, gave everyone the bird, and walked off stage. I’ve been a fan of Dwight Yoakam ever since.
Ok so I caved and bought the T’Pau CD. I’m sure I’ve got most of the tracks & a bit of a dodgy cover.
Still, lot’s of good singles on there…
Gutted about missing the Bob Marley one…missed the last time it was on a great deal on Amazon Fr a couple of years ago too.
ditto here from New Zealand. Missed it again ! Should’ve checked email sooner !
Yeah, I picked it up the first time when it was around £17. So, £12 was even better.
Is that T’Pau set the best-value deal ever on a three-disc set?
Deal over for Steve Miller and Rolling Stones Boxes on Amazon.de ! Did not last long !
Bruce Springsteen’s 2CD edition of Letter To You is 7€ on Amazon.de https://amzn.to/3IiYIdc
I think there is no 2-CD version of that album.
You are right! I’ve no idea why it’s listed as such.
Thank you Paul for the Steve Miller alert, it’s much appreciated.
Marley deal over already. :(
Cheers. Steve Miller box ordered around £27 with postage. :-)
Tried to add Marley to basket and just kept getting ‘your basket is empty’ messages. Seems to have gone at that price now. That’s saved me some money I really didn’t need to spend!
Ordered both Marley and Miller definitely a bargain price for both. Thankyou for the alert!
Bob Marley now €14.99 at 10:28 a.m. North America east coast time (January 18, 2022). Still a great price.
Thanks, ordered both (Marley and Miller ) from Amazon.DE. A bargain, thanks!!
