Oh yes, absolutely, I was referring more to the package contents not so much the cost. I'm thinking at about $150 - $200 a package like this would be a welcome sight for many.
He played the long game and just got an absolutely insane amount made so i'm sure his price per unit was much lower because of this. ^^ That was back in 2019.. He's an obvious egomaniac and there was a lot of talk he wanted to have a historic selling boxset and also chase the Beatles as the best selling artist so he probably made a huge amount if not all his money back with the pre-orders and the large amount sold at the above stores shortly after being released alone. All that allowed them to heavily discount the box for the majority of the leftovers at "unbelievable" deals which worked beautifully as I even bought one and I can't stand the guy haha. I give him credit though, it was a good strategy that only few artists could do.
So you are saying they were done making money on them? Now just give them away? That doesn't make sense
I remember the hype when Garth Brooks' first greatest hits cd was released. I didn't know any of the guy's music but I bought the cd based on the hype -- something along the lines of "he never has his hits compiled and this will be a limited release so get it now." I don't think I liked a single track on it and probably haven't played it since I bought it. Count me among those who aren't interested in a heavily discounted Garth Brooks box set. Maybe in 50 years it will prove to be a good investment for those who bought one for $12.50 and kept it sealed, but I wouldn't count on it.
i don't know, can we? here's something that might help: Tiffany - I Think We're Alone Now (vinyl): $12.38 https://smile.amazon.com/I-Think-Were-Alone-Now/dp/B08WJY6GY3/

Up to $38, but the "linited numbered series" is down to $18, or you could spend $45 and get the triple set with endless iterations of the same records. Boggles the mind that another year is down, and they still can't get rid of these suckers.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09GF6NRTY/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_B9WVDF25PTT53BYXVVVW Round Trip - The Complete Ornette Coleman Blue Note Tone Poet Series Not necessarily a deal but I'm excited! Don't expect this to go the way of Garth though...
Yup, may need to be patient on this one, but it is a must buy for me. Its on Udiscover now but the 30 percent is not working for it.
If I'm guessing it will go the way of the Lee Morgan Box and it will run out of stock before it even comes out.
Likely the case, but the morgan box had a big discount on udsivover....will see if that happens here.
Maybe if there is another sale before it's released, but right now it looks like it won't work for this December sale: 30% Off Sitewide Sale valid on purchases at uDiscover Music from Wednesday, December 1st, 2021 through Sunday, January 2nd, 2022 at 11:59pm EST.

Damn. that is bad news. that is not going to change....perhaps they will hit us "diamond" members with a nice coupon or something we can use on it...
Yeah I cashed in a bunch of my points on my last order too! Wish I had saved them up for this instead. Didn’t know it would be coming so soon.
