    1. From my post about 15 down below.

      It got down to £114 a couple of days ago. I resisted as I already have one but it’s odd that they should appear now. It’ll be interesting to see what number turns up for you as they are numbered. Have they been saving up the returns? I don’t think it’s been re-pressed. It’s been 3rd party sellers only at £229 for the last 7 months. Interesting.

      1. Hi, I bought one yesterday and it was numbered. Guess they didn’t sell very well. Haven’t opened it yet, but I’m guessing I’ll need a replacement for Night Thoughts?

      2. Hi Chris
        Got a coloured vinyl set but didn’t notice anything indicated numbered edition. I actually had a replacement order yesterday as original had damaged sleeves and again no numbered edition that I can see

        2. I bought the coloured box set from Amazon. It arrived in one of those plastic bags that they sometimes use. The box the vinyl is housed in was open within the bag (as the box was unsealed) and had lots of scuffs. The replacement came yesterday in a massively over sized box with a tiny bit of scrunched paper. The vinyl box was just about sealed [though the cellophane was ripped in places] but because it had been so loose in the box, there were scuffs on the box. The packaging is all over the place with Amazon products and I can’t believe anyone would genuinely think either packing a vinyl box set in a plastic bag or an oversized box is a good idea. DMG though have been good and they are sending out a replacement copy for Night Thoughts. I wonder how many of these sets Amazon have lying round?

        1. How very odd, that it should have been noted as “unavailable” for quite a while. Can’t quite work out why they wouldn’t have wanted to sell stock when the secondary seller market was asking £200+.

          The only thing that leaps out is that it could have been an inventory issue. Maybe they just mislaid some, it happens, Cherry Red do it regularly and logistics is harder than we would imagine once humans get involved. No other reason to hold that many back to try and sell them months later at a lower price. I could imagine a shop doing that if the price settled higher but not to sell it lower. i.e at £100

          So very odd.

          1. Maybe they pulled it after all the complaints, and are now just quietly trying to clear stock? Still haven’t checked, but I assume Night Thoughts is a mispress like all the others.

  4. Many thanks Paul – got in quick on ZZ Top yesterday. Delivered this morning. Unfortunately damaged – sent in a box FAR too big with standard token sheet of scrunched up paper. Amazon will replace of course but you would think they would have learnt by now and got some boxes made more suitable for box sets? They must be inundated with returns every day – or do people not bother and just accept the damage?

    1. Was just in time for the 22 price. Got confirmation in the mail. Although I have most of the pre Eliminator stuff on vinyl this price was too good to miss. Still find it strange that one of the best ZZ Top songs Blue Jean Blues is missing on this set.

      1. Even though I promised the Mrs. that I wouldn’t buy any more box sets £22 is too good a price to miss out on. Thank you Paul I & Paul II.

        Also if you missed out on this and are still interested the Suede Coloured Vinyl box set that had long since disappeared is currently £116 through Am UK. It means having to get night thoughts replacement discs, if they are still doing those but £116 is better than £200+ in the secondary market

  17. Springsteen Broadway is now 30€, I wonder why it goes up and down?
    I haven’t bought the set yet as I saw some not so good comments of the pressing over at the discogs. Anybody got it and could share some views?

  24. uDiscover store have a 2 for £15 offer on some vinyl at the moment. I picked up the bet of Big Star, Weller Heavy Soul & More Modern Classics and an Elliot Smith LP for £35 with postage

  25. “Currently not available.
    Be notified of our eCourier if the product can be ordered.”

    Thanks for the Deal, Paul. Last night i got this marvellous box set.
