    So I can get both box sets on Amazon for $230 together or pay $440 for those plus an additional book and one CD? Paul, you are making this tough!

    I added both Deluxe sets to my basket, plus priority shipping, plus taxes, and it was $299. Or £230.
    But the more you add, the more shipping, and the more import tax.

    I've ordered the vinyl from Amazon UK, as the price works out the same.

    Assuming the reason it hasn't appeared on Paul's UK site is because UDiscover don't have it listed yet. Hurry up guys!

    Yes I think the vinyl was the problem but even so £36 rather than $29 sticks in the craw :mad:

    Since the official prices for the Wild Life /Red Rose Speedway Super Deluxe Editions are $149.98 / $199.98 respectively (1971 - 1973 ), you should go ahead and ordered them at Amazon.com. I guess Mr. Bezos' Empire, once again, messed up the placeholder prices and later on will corrected them.

    You can't find it properly on Amazon UK yet either in as much as it is still listed as TBC. I have no idea what they are up to when other retailers now seem to be on the ball.

    Not only that, but I’m guessing Wings Over Europe will eventually get a separate release, making the Uber purchase/cost unnecessary.

    This roll out is an utter shambles in the UK.

    It’s a shambles everywhere! Preorder links appearing before the announcement, tracks on streaming services before too. And preorder links unavailable after the announcement.

    Maybe they delayed it last minute to today, then arrived in the office this morning to find listings already up and orders being taken so rushed the press release at 12 instead of 5, hence UK links not being ready.

    Cheers.
    I don't think I can afford $400 for the main set, but it seems like a pretty good package ... I guess it's the 2cd sets for me

    Yes usual MPL fiasco. Did we not have this last year with the vinyl albums? MPL (not Paul but whoever overseas the official site) are not as cool and in with the kids and cutting edge as they think.

    Is there a discount code available for the $400.00 set? I am not familiar with these codes.

    Things were much cheaper back when these albums came out:

    Pre-ordered the two deluxe sets on amazon for $230. I just can't justify $170 for a picture book and one CD. But to those that did, enjoy!

    No. But the standard of the boxset materials is higher, each contains multiple books/printed materials, and photo facsimiles which the Lennon set didn't. Still wish these were under £100 each, but alas.
