I think i was able to do better at Deep Discount site, I'll try to find URL ... likely someone posted it earlier so you can probably find it in the thread somewhere.

Looks like the link I previously posted for the $51.92 GRRR Deluxe via Importcd's/Amazon is no longer available - they must have been snapped up quick!
Lowest prices now listed have jumped back to over $100 and above from other sellers. Be patient though, the cheap deals reappear all the time.

Recently bought the BBC sessions: [www.amazon.de]

There's no reason to have GRRR twice as long as this one's available for a reasonable price

Totally agree, it's what works for each person that's important. I already have bootlegs though, so it wasn't that I needed the songs (I didn't), I just wanted the officially released version.

You bought them?


"As we say in England, it can get a bit trainspottery"

I have a question about the 3-Disc version. Did this come in 2 different sized boxes? I have seen one that appears to be about the size of a LP, which most of the Stones boxsets generally are, and then another version that is a tall and narrow version of this - about the same height as the first one I mention, but about 2/3 the width. Does anyone know??

I am very diligently trying to gather all that I missed over the past 4 years, and I'm almost there!!!

thanks!

You can buy the entire 5cd GRRR Super Deluxe w/7" single on Amazon US (marketplace) for as low as $51.92 from importcd's + $3.99 shipping.
I buy things all the time from importcd's at huge discounts - they are reliable. Might only be available to if US customers?

GRRR Deluxe

The problem I've run into with Amazon, more than once ... sellers sometimes just lump their item with any one they find, and don't check that it's the exact same thing ... so I have a fear of buying what I think is shown in the picture/description, but then end up w/ another version. If they don't say specifically that it has the 7" om tej condition notes, I don't have faith.

That's your decision, but as I said I've never had a problem with importcd's.
They send you exactly what is listed on the main product page (GRRR Deluxe 5 cd bonus 7" vinyl, etc.).
They have a 5 star 98% positive rating based on 2,886,207 total ratings.

The only thing I don't like about ImportCds is their lack of free shipping. That can add up!!!

But the discounted prices are still usually cheaper than buying direct from Amazon itself ("Ships from and sold by Amazon.com"). I have Amazon Prime and get free two-three day shipping from them when ordering direct, but still I can sometimes get something cheaper in the marketplace even with the $3.99 shipping fee.

Most if not all of the marketplace listings have a standard $3.99 shipping in the continental US for music - even if the product is being imported from England. While ImportCD's is within the US (and $3.99 can add up I suppose), other listings like RAREWAVES-IMPORTS, Zoverstocks, and OxfordshireEngland are based in England and ship all the way to the US (California for me) also for only $3.99. For example, I can buy a cd for $2.99 and pay $3.99 shipping all the way from England, or I can pay $10.00 from Amazon w/free shipping. Obviously you want to choose the cheaper option, even though sometimes it takes weeks to arrive. I'm in no rush, and sometimes I'll receive something I completely forgot about ordering which is always a nice surprise!

I'd like to second Irix info. There was no 12" size 3CD deluxe in EU. Maybe this is US version or something.

You're absolutely right Hairball - I priced it out, and it is still a TON cheaper that way! Gonna order a bunch of my missing stuff thru there now. Wish I had ordered some of what I've bought thru there too. Oh well.

Not saying that is always the case, but alot of times it is - especially for items that are already on the market.
But for unreleased pre-orders, Amazon direct usually will have the lowest price (vs. Amazon marketplace), and they have a 'low price guarantee'.
Best to compare prices from various options and sites before clicking the 'purchase now' button!

"As we say in England, it can get a bit trainspottery"

Slightly off topic: I'll confirm what Hairball & keefriffhard4life are saying about the IMPORTCD seller on Amazon. I've probably purchased more discs between them and Zoverstocks than I have from Amazon. If there was ever a problem (maybe once or twice in all the years I've shopped from them) they had it rectified fast enough that it left my head spinning. They both live up-to and well past their 98% customer rating in my book.

I think it was importcd who once sent the wrong disc (in the right case) and in the conversation (text) to get it rectified, they refunded my purchase (on the wrong one), confirmed that they had the correct disc in stock AND THEY HAD PULLED IT AND SET IT ASIDE FOR ME if I'd like to reorder. When I asked about sending the incorrect disc back to them, they said not to worry about it and just asked that I donate it either to a library or Goodwill shop.

I'll buy from them until they both go out of business!

Peace,
Mr DJA
