Good deals on amazon.ca - Updated as deals are found (pt2)

Thanks, Dennis. I was able to order it with shipment to the U.S. Maybe that's because it's coming from a Marketplace seller.

 

It's funny that 10 copies of this would suddenly show up. I'm glad you got one

 

Thanks, also ordered.

Also available from Amazon.com for $20 shipped.

 

Crazy Amazon Canada Sale Update:
My amazon Canada stuff from the 11th just arrived.
Led Zeppelin 1 Deluxe - Perfect Condition
Beatles Live at the BBC - One of the record sleeves was becoming unglued, but everything else was fine
Queen Live at the Rainbow Box Set - One of the album sleeves had fingerprints all over the front, the rest were fine. All of the record sleeves had some wear, with the paper starting to separate. Otherwise, perfect.

However for the price, no complaints

 

I ended up getting about 3/5's of what I ordered. I ordered about 100 Ace comps @ $4 each, and only got about 20 of those, haha. I guess Dennis (or another Prime member) got the 1 copy of each of those that they had in stock. Still got tons of great import stuff (mostly R&B)....but sadly not the Beatles mono vinyl box or Chuck Berry Bear Family box.

 

Yeah, there have been some INSANE deals on Amazon Canada. I wonder what is going on. Just getting rid of extra copies?

I had The Bealtes' Past Masters (Japan) and Robert Palmer's Riptide (2013 Japan "remastered") in my cart but waited too long. Past Masters was $15, now it's $78! And Riptide was originally $10, now it's $53!

But I have gotten some excellent deals over the past few weeks:

- Grateful Dead - Europe '72 (2-disc SHM-CD) $10
- Dick Clark's Jukebox Hits (10 discs) $35
- Bob Marley and the Wailers - Easy Skanking in Boston'78 (Japanese CD) - $15
- Kinks Sunny Afternoon (2-disc Japan CD) - $9
- Beach Boys - Today and Smiley Smile (Japanese reissues ) - $10 each
- Bryan Adams - Reckless (2-disc Japanese SHM-CD reissue) - $9
- Holland Dozier Holland - Complete 45s Collection - $28
- Dolly Parton and Isley Brothers - Box Set Series - $6 each
- several Japanese reissues including Otis Redding's Dock of the Bay and Soul Album, the Meters' Cabbage Alley, Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell Easy, Booker T and the MG's Hip Hug Her, and many more for under $5
- Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band - Nine Tonight (with large T-shirt) $4.50
- many of those Pure 70s, 90s, Legends, etc. 4-disc sets for under $5
- David Lee Roth - Greatest Hits (CD/DVD) - $4.85
- lots of reissues from Funky Town Grooves and BBR (ie. Switch, O'Jays, Gap Band) for under $5

Luckily, I live in Toronto, so the items were shipped quickly and efficiently.

 

Neil... good deal at $33.37 CAD for those who still don' t have the first four remasters...

Wish I'd known about this one. What a deal!

 

Yeah, I don't have a lot of Grateful Dead in my collection but I thought, "I'm sure a lot of the Hoffman members would approve!" So I couldn't resist.

Not sure if this was just a once-in-a-lifetime sale but I'll keep any eye out.

 

OK, I gotta start getting in on these things. Do you just watch the 'deals' section?

 

I just happened to notice that certain CDs, which are usually high priced, severely discounted and looked at other CDs on that specific label (BBR, FTG, Cherry Pop) or format (ie. SHM-CD, SACD). I also looked at Today's Deals and looked at CDs under $5 or under $10 and would narrow it down by genre (ie. Dance, R&B, Country). I noticed a lot of Japanese CDs discounted so I would look under specific artists (Beatles, Beach Boys, Otis Redding) and would happen to find at least one or two heavily discounted reissues, since many of the Japanese discounts were over $10 so they might not end up on the Deals pages. I pretty much looked for CDs by artists I enjoy and was lucky to find a number of items I wanted.

There was a lot I didn't buy - there were SHM-CDs for KISS, Bachman Turner Overdrive, and Rolling Stones. There was also Electric Light Orchestra Live (SHM-CD) for $13.

 

For those who enjoy Classical music, the MDG (Musikproduktion Dabringhaus und Grimm) label is releasing a Hybrid Stereo/Multichannel SACD sampler. The disc contains 28 tracks for over 78 minutes of music in both Stereo and Multichannel and showcasing a wide variety of recordings. It's a great way to discover new "old" music.

It's available for pre-order at a low price on in the US and in Canada. Germany and the UK offer it for more.

The Cliff Richard "On the Continent" set is under $40 (as of this post, of course; subject to change).

 

Thanks, Simon! I just ordered it for $6.34 USD shipped from amazon.com.

 

https://www.amazon.ca/Pet-Sounds-An...351&sr=1-1&keywords=beach+boys+pet+sounds+box

Just ordered the latest Pet Sounds box for $36.64. It's not in stock. Hopefully it will ship.

 

Thanks.

 

$35.84 USD shipped. Great price if it ships and the discs aren't badly scratched.

 

Just tried with your post, and it's now accepting my address. When I tried this morning, I got the message that they wouldn't deliver to my address.

 

These look to be new copies, why would the discs be scratched? Is that an issue with the set?

 

Carted up 5 cds, tried to
check out and .....

Does anyone know any cheap or fair Japanese classical music online store that can ship internationally, like importcds.com of U.S.? Thank you guys.

BTW, off-topic, Amazon Japan is no longer using express for their CD shipments. Before they would express deliver items, but now, depending on their order, thy will use a method where the package literally goes through three different countries! It's a shame because I loved ordering from there, but I recently ordered "Level 42: Collected" and it took three weeks to arrive and went through Shanghai, Germany and Montreal before it made it to Toronto.

Back on topic - I miss these Amazon Canada sales. They were amazing. I loved bargain hunting on the net for once.
