Impossible to go wrong with Tori Amos‘ wonderful 1992 debut. A quite astonishing album. This vinyl is the half-speed mastered reissue, so well worth picking up, especially at this price.

Managed to pick up the Dylan box before it went out of stock. Shipped yesterday. Looking forward to it!
Was it wrong to buy another copy of Kate Bush’s vinyl III box set?
It’s only €37 on Amazon Germany:

hey Paul, re “Tori Amos‘ wonderful 1992 debut” it was actually her second.
The first was rather not very good.
Not really. Y Kant Tori Read was an album by a band called Y Kant Tori Read. It wasn’t a solo album by Tori Amos.
…with Matt Sorum (Guns n’ Roses, The Cult, Velvet Revolver) on drums …
My mistake :(
No worries :)
Bowie Loving The Alien vinyl box down to £152 on Amazon UK
Loving the Alien’s dropped to just under £140 twice in the last month or so. Been falling for the last few days and it’s as £149 this morning. Might have a little way to go yet before it jumps back to £193.
Amazon.de offered Tom Petty’s The Studio Collection 1976-1991 (Ltd.) (vinyl) for €106 yesterday evening (I don’t know how long the price was that low), and it said that the box would be a pre-order available from 13 August, basically advertising it as a new/reissued product. (Amazon.fr and .it had the same new date, but no bargain prices.) After putting the box in my shopping basket, the offer vanished and the box is now only avalable from resellers. Does anyone know whether a reissue is in the works? Any explanations? Thanks!
I live in Canada and have been ordering from Amazon UK for years. In fact I just this week received from Amazon UK the excellent McGear Deluxe cd set and the Bad Company Swan Song cd b0x set. However, Amazon UK will NOT ship to Canada the Nick Cave double cd Best of that you brought to our attention, Paul.
Do you have any idea, Paul, what is going on in this regard?
Whole Lotta Bob!
Ryan Adams ordered, thanks
You can get the Boney M. Vinyl Box Set for
64,99€ at Amazon Germany!
(That was the Dylan Bootleg Series box I tried to get, not the Complete Collection.)
(Thanks for clearing that up).
Ordered Kate Bush CD box set #1 from Amazon on Sunday for £25.59. Gone back up to £33 odd now but may be worth keeping an eye on given Amazon’s fluctuating prices
Really want the Dylan Box but still can’t justify £97 when I own all the albums albeit, Side Tracks and Dylan digitally. Another £10 or £15 off and I’m in!
The box is one of my prized musical possessions. I too owned almost everything in it, but don’t forget there are some exclusive remasters in there too. Just having it all in one box is just amazing. I’d not be without it.
It does happen Paul. When this came up I checked and, thanks to SDE, I paid £86.99 in December 2017.
Now trying to remember if I already bought the Trouble No More set?
Peter
I will no doubt take the plunge! Have just bought 6 albums by The Band including The 4 disc Last Waltz so will have to save my pennies! I have and love the Dylan Mono Box set and the Complete Set will look very good next to it, aside from having all the remasters.
Thanks Peter, I will be on the lookout! I picked up The Cutting Edge box set for £47 thanks to SDE. Thanks Paul Sinclair!
Right – that’s the Dylan box set ordered from Amazon Spain – thanks for the heads up on this.
The ABBA 3CD 40th anniversary steelbook edition of Gold (with More Gold & B-Sides) is currently under £17 at Amazon UK.
Also at the cheapest I’ve managed to find it so far is the Super Deluxe of Liz Phair Exile in Guysville “Girly Sound to Guysville” 3CD @ £16.09
Ignore the reviews re the packaging – it’s clumsy rather than bad – and it’s the music that counts:

RE: Liz Phair, I found that deal too… Great price and it is out of print! Get it while you can!!!

Big Star is OOS, but still orderable. New Order is GBP 79.87
I’m holding off on New Order til it’s under £50 (ideally £40 or lower).

Amazon UK: Creation Theory 4LP Box Set £28.32
…….and Big Star ordered. Almost got it at full price when it came out, but really glad I didn’t now!
Yeah I was watching the New Order box price gradually going down. Finally went for it when it dipped under £70. Still a lot of money, but the reviews on Amazon have helped sway me :)
The price for the New Order box set has been all over the place. Changing daily and some days changing several times. It was £78 for a while and went up to £103 a fortnight ago and has been falling daily ever since. I plunged in a week ago at £80 and used some Amazon vouchers I’d been sitting on. Price dropped a quid literally 5 minutes after I ordered it. I could have cancelled and re-ordered but as I paid by voucher I didn’t want to risk a delay in re-activating my voucher if the price suddenly shot back up again (which it didn’t but you never know)
