Amazon AU price watch thread...

I just pre-ordered both SACD's through iMusic in Netherlands - comes to about A$65 each with shipping. They kind of state that there is no guarantee they will get stock....but if so it's due in January. They do not debit you until shipment so I figured no harm in locking in an order just in case - and no issues with cancelling if need be.

 

Is this imusic.co in Denmark? I cannot see the two released SACDs (Two Against Nature & Everything Must Go), is that what you ordered?

 

Denmark yes - not sure why I typed Netherlands. Sorry no - I was thinking you wanted the latest batch coming out (I forgot about those 2 earlier releases). So it was Countdown to Ecstasy and Can't Buy a Thrill that I was referring to.

I've not heard another thing since ordering. I have a feeling this won't happen. The sale items are now much more expensive. Perhaps a pricing error happened?

 

I had this response from them
02/12/2022 we shipped these items to you 1 x Adams, Ryan / Wednesdays (Vinyl) / LP - 2YV0092133

I have a tracking order for Ryan Adams
But no tracking available for Chicago triple vinyl, so I guess I will be getting a refund for this.

 

I ordered 7 albums…5 have shipped. So I guess it’s a waiting game on some. They are an Online store that don’t always have stock on hand but from past experience I have received the majority of cheap items I’ve bought. It all depends on the stock that their distributors can get.

 

They always post the stock on hand from an order & then order the other items from their distributors, so u may still get it. Of course they may have over sold as well…

 

I ordered the Chicago 3LP and the Belinda Carlisle. As a few of us ordered the former so I'm guessing it might be a while coming, if at all? Although it said was in stock. Same with Belinda. Oh well it's not much dosh is it?

 

I ordered Belinda as well & that is one that has not shipped yet. I didn’t think that would be a popular title so was surprised they didn’t actually have enough stock on hand.

 

Me too. Some of those Belinda deluxe sets have been in the DeepDiscount blowout bin, so can't be wildly in demand. I bought mine as a Christmas gift for a pal who is a big fan. It'll probably be a new year pressie instead!

 

Hall and Oates - Marigold Sky - $9.45 CD.

Vinyl is $42. A bit cheaper than the others.

Three in Melbourne that I know of - Implant, Program and Zenith. Program are the newest but most expensive. Implant often outsource pressings to Chinese pressing plants but they still sound great. No surface noise, clicks or pops. Zenith did our 7” and ….well…the less said, the better.

 

Not quite at the Zenith of vinyl pressing skills yet then?

 

Eagerly tracking an order from frontiers music. In the last 5 days the package has gone Frankfurt > London > Frankfurt > London

 

Frankfurt is the worst! Seems to be a black hole for orders, stuff can sit there for months, patiently hoping my og Hunky Dory doesn't sit there too much longer....

 

In the spirit of Christmas, I hope Jesus did not ask for a session fee

 

My last couple of DHL shipments sat in Frankfurt for 3-4 months.

 

Oops, just noticed this deal isn’t eligible for Amazon Prime!

 

Christ I hope not!
