J.A.W.

I'm looking fior this CD-set in at least Exc condition - box and booklet included: Please contact me via PM if you have one for sale. Payment via PayPal, but not friends/family. I'm in the Netherlands.

Look here: Belgian store TYQMusic Owner Mark Steyaert told me a few days ago that he has plenty of V-Disc sets in stock. He'll surely get the Vanguard set as well.

The V-Disc Mosaic can now also be pre-ordered on the site of Belgian store TYQMusic; price 189 euros + shipping: https://tyqmusic.eu/product/classic-v-disc-small-group-jazz-sessions-limited-edition-box-set/

I am looking for a M- or at least Exc+ copy of the Analogue Productions gold CD of Bill Evans - Waltz for Debby - AP CAPJ 009, mastered by Doug Sax. I am willing to pay 50 euros or $55, plus shipping, to be paid on or after July 24 (payday for me 🙂). Note that I'm in the Netherlands, so shipping within Europe would be preferable to minimize cost. Shipping from US is OK, though that would probably be quite expensive. PayPal only, NO family/friends. Note: I am NOT interested in the AP SACD that was apparently also mastered by Doug Sax, just the GOLD CD.

Correct. If the set was delivered by FedEx they will send a VAT bill (plus handling fee) some time after delivery.

Within the EU only the applicable VAT is due (and probably a handling fee) when importing CDs from outside the EU, and NO import tariffs when the total value of the order exceeds 150 euros. I checked the Dutch tax authority's site but it applies throughout the EU - scroll down to "BTW (VAT) en invoerrechten (tariffs) voor veel gekochte producten" - go to CDs, and there the tariff is 0.

Belgian store TYQMusic is listing the upcoming Bobby Hutcherson Mosaic at a (for EU residents) very attractive price: https://tyqmusic.eu/label/mosaic-records/ Their service and packaging are excellent.

Better mail Scott personally: Mosaic mail

Just heard the terrible news that Michael Cuscuna has died - Joe Harley posted this: Michael Cuscuna RIP

Sorry to hear this sad news.

You may be in for an unpleasant surprise: if the set was shipped by FedEx they will send you a VAT invoice separately, usually within one or two weeks of delivery. Note that only VAT (21% in the Netherlands) and a handling fee wiil be due, no import duties, CDs are exempt from import duties in the EU. TYQMusic's prices for Mosaic sets are usually lower than Jazz Messengers'.

TYQMusic do not have it in stock. The owner, Mark Steyaert, told me yesterday Mosaic had informed him that something had gone wrong with TYQMusic's order, and it won't be filled until mid- or late January at the earliest.

If you ordered directly from Mosaic there is no VAT included, they do not use the EU IOSS ("Import One Stop Shop") scheme as far as I know. Within the EU you pay VAT on arrival of an order from outside the EU, unless the non-EU seller uses IOSS, in that case VAT is charged at check-out if the total value does not exceed 150 euros, and no VAT is due on arrival. By the way - and this might be of interest to EU residents - Belgian store TYQMusic is currently offering the Byas Mosaic for 189 euros (pre-order) plus shipping. They told me they're expecting the set mid- or late December: TYQMusic

...and their prices are reasonable. TYQMusic Mosaics
