Big Al Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Posted January 25, 2008 I think this is their way of clearing out the inventory without actually setting anything out on the clearance racks. This doesn't make sense to me, but then what does anymore? Quote
mikelz777 Posted January 25, 2008 Report Posted January 25, 2008 (edited) So last night I placed another order for 8 discs with four coupons, all free. That brings my total to 29 discs set to show up. How many did others order? Or is 278 a real figure? I was only able to use J8E1,2,3,4 once for a total of 8 discs. (2 were 2-CD sets) Every time I tried to use them again I was told that I had already used that code. Maybe it's because I am new to the club. I haven't even received my introductory offer yet. You're never going to find a better deal on 29 discs again. If your codes work again for you I have a 3 disc set I'd like to pick up. Edited January 25, 2008 by mikelz777 Quote
Noj Posted January 25, 2008 Report Posted January 25, 2008 Whoa, I didn't see this thread until now. I just went code-crazy and ordered a plethora of discs. Quote
Aggie87 Posted January 25, 2008 Report Posted January 25, 2008 Whoa, I didn't see this thread until now. I just went code-crazy and ordered a plethora of discs. Bonus points for "plethora", too. Quote
Ron S Posted January 25, 2008 Report Posted January 25, 2008 I just went code-crazy and ordered a plethora of discs. Oh, MAN! You CODED! SOMEONE GRAB THE PADDLES! Quote
GA Russell Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 (edited) It seems that you do not even need to buy a disc at regular price. Just ordered Mingus at Cornell 1964 and Johnny Griffin Introducing, paying only shipping. WTF! $2.72/disc! Too good to be true? Many thanks to Aggie and WD45 for the heads up! I ordered: Charlie Parker - Savoy and Dial Master Takes (3 CD box) Maynard Ferguson - A Message from Birdland Gil Evans - Out of the Cool Gerald Wilson - Monterey Moods and for a friend: Miles Davis - Lift to the Scaffold edit to add: That's $2.56 per CD!

GA Russell Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 Kenny Weir can verify this, but that looks to me like a Hawthorn Hawks jersey! Quote
Noj Posted January 29, 2008 Report Posted January 29, 2008 All of my orders are listed as "shipped as of 1/25/08" this morning. Quote
kenny weir Posted January 30, 2008 Report Posted January 30, 2008 (edited) Kenny Weir can verify this, but that looks to me like a Hawthorn Hawks jersey! Could be - the colours look right. But if it is a Hawks jumper, it must be ann old one - anything from 50 to 100 years. Edited January 30, 2008 by kenny weir Quote
WD45 Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 Just used this new code: J8X6. Not great for single discs, but it makes the boxed sets cheap. Ansermet conducts Stravinsky 8CD set King Cole Transcriptions 3CD set About $40 shipped! Quote
mikelz777 Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 (edited) Where are you getting these codes? You're making me want to spend more money! Edited January 31, 2008 by mikelz777 Quote
T.D. Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 I think I got the last one from BMG by e-mail earlier today. I'm a BMG member, but basically inactive: got off the "monthly selection" list about 10 (!) years ago, have been purchasing from yourmusic instead, and haven't ordered from BMG in over two years. So I doubt that their e-mail list is very exclusive... Quote

I used this one to help fill the country flavored jones I've been having lately.

Aggie87 Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 Received most of my BMG "sale" items today! By the way, if anyone is thinking about ordering the Miles Davis "Ascenseur pour l'echafaud" from BMG or yourmusic, it is a new (2007) issue, with only the original 10 tracks. Despite their listing of 26 tracks. Quote
Tjazz Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 (edited) Just used this new code: J8X6. Not great for single discs, but it makes the boxed sets cheap. Ansermet conducts Stravinsky 8CD set King Cole Transcriptions 3CD set About $40 shipped! Thanks for the BMG tip. I got this BMG code in email, but didn't think it was worth much. But I've been eyeing the Nat King Cole TRANSCRIPTIONS (3CD). This code brings the price down to $6 + 6.77 (shipping/handling) = $12.77 All the BOX SETS are bargain priced too. I think the code expires 2/3/2008. Edited January 31, 2008 by Tjazz Quote
GA Russell Posted February 1, 2008 Report Posted February 1, 2008 I ordered: Maynard Ferguson - A Message from Birdland Gil Evans - Out of the Cool Gerald Wilson - Monterey Moods Uh oh. I just received an email saying that the Evans and the Wilson shipped without the Ferguson. Quote
WD45 Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 FYI, the new version of Billie Holiday's Lady Sings the Blues is not in the nice digipack like the rest of the most recent batch of Impulse! reissues. It is a moderately chintzy version in a jewel case, retaining some of the new design of the recent batch. Quote
GA Russell Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 I ordered: Maynard Ferguson - A Message from Birdland Gil Evans - Out of the Cool Gerald Wilson - Monterey Moods Uh oh. I just received an email saying that the Evans and the Wilson shipped without the Ferguson. Good news! I received an email today saying that the Maynard was shipped yesterday. Quote
GA Russell Posted February 11, 2008 Report Posted February 11, 2008 I ordered: Charlie Parker - Savoy and Dial Master Takes (3 CD box) Bummer. I received word today that this is no longer available. I called them up to make sure that I could use the discount code on something else, and I ordered the Bird 3 CD Verve Master Takes box. Quote
Ron S Posted February 11, 2008 Report Posted February 11, 2008 I called them up to make sure that I could use the discount code on something else, and I ordered the Bird 3 CD Verve Master Takes box. Care to share that phone number? Quote

They certainly don't go out of their way to publicize a phone number (800 or otherwise), but I did just notice that the number you provided can be found here, on this helpful web site. Quote
