    I noticed today that Sunrise Records increased the price on some CD releases

    Billie Eilish - "Happier Than Ever"
    Regular CD - now $15.99 (Previously $12.99 on release day)
    Deluxe CD - now $21.99 (Previously $17.99 on release day)

    Perhaps it was only a temporary price cut and the price now is the normal price..

    Taylor Swift - Red: Taylor's Version (NOTE: Shipping late, due to arrive in stores next week, call ahead to confirm availability)

    How is this suppose to be late? It is one of the most anticipated album of the year?

    Sorry, that was referring to the CD release. the CD arrived around November 22nd and some restock ABBA - Voyage CD as well. Those are possibly their biggest sellers of the year. I had
    one put aside for me, so I have them both now.

    Haven't seen any vinyl of Taylor yet.

    I did pick up the only cassette they had of the new ABBA album at my local Sunrise. It will be a Xmas gift for a friend who is a huge ABBA fan and a fan of cassettes. He's got like almost 2000 of 'em now.

    What's going on with Sony Music Canada prices at Sunrise? The prices are extremely high.

    The Sunrise website only shows if the item is in stock at the West Edmonton Mall (Alberta) location, so if you live in another province, then Sunrise "encourages"

    you to call the location near you regarding availability - please!

    Not to mention the release date is not guaranteed and sometimes the items appear in the store weeks later or whenever Sunrise made a payment to Shane Carter?

    From this listing it shows that the price on Sony Music Canada items slowly rise every few weeks or months at the time

    ELVIS (Original Soundtrack) | Sunrise Records (July 29 - $19.99 CD)
    Renaissance | Sunrise Records (July 29 - $18.99 CD)
    Harry's House | Sunrise Records (May 20 - $17.99 CD)
    So Far So Good | Sunrise Records (May 13 - $17.99 CD)
    Explosions | Sunrise Records (May 6 - $13.99 CD)
    https://www.sunriserecords.com/product/194399712221/we (May 6 - $17.99)


    The $17.99 ones at Sunrise were $15.97 at Wal-Mart Canada and the $13.99 one at Sunrise is $12.88 at Wal-Mart Canada

    Went to the Pickering store today for the first time since before Covid. Nothing much has changed... their selection is still lacking, and the items they *do* have are still ridiculously overpriced. They'll be out of business again before too long if they don't make some changes to their business practices.

    The location near me in Ottawa has had distribution issues for months. However, late in the summer they did get a new batch of records. They told me they got over 200 titles to fill their racks & they did get the new Ozzy & Megadeth relatively on time at least within a few days of release. lol

    There is a Sunrise exclusive Megadeth CD with a couple of bonus trax. Same price as the regular version.

    The guy at the Pickering store mentioned something about issues with their supplier, which he claimed was the reason they had no Ray Lamontagne CDs at all... disappointing, since RL's most recent album Monovision is right at the top of my "must buy" list.

    But he also said they had no copies of Pink Floyd's new Animals remix because they only ordered 3 and they already sold out... so clearly their lack of stock is due partially to idiotic business decisions and not just supplier problems.

    My location had a few cds of the 2018 Animals remix but no wax. CDs usually show up first at this location.

    These two are Sony distributed releases. It could be that Sunrise doesn't order every SKU from distributors to save costs.

    Anyways, the Ray Lamontagna release is in stock here at another shop.

    As predicted, Taylor Swift's "Midnights" is late/delayed into Sunrise locations.

    it's about 27.99 USD.... so $38 is "about right"

    The release is distributed by BMG Rights Management (Warner Music Canada here)

    It’s $25 on Amazon! You can expect a few dollars difference, but not nearly 50% more expensive!

    Stopped into the Pickering store today to see if they had any Black Friday sales... but they weren't offering any deals at all, aside from a small discount on vinyl.

    So, along with their usual pitiful selection and ridiculous prices, the trip was a total waste of my time.

    They have been selling left over RSD stock from previous RSD’s at 40% off all week. Some stores don’t have any notices about it, but it’ll ring up at the till.
