Max Roach, Miles Davis Mosaics running low

i bet you call mosaic and tell them that they sent you 2 sets

they'd give you a small credit ($20 or so) or gift certificate and pay for the shipping back

You didn't get hold of a copy, Yves? Then SS1s cover art is appropriate I guess.

Oh yes I did! I love this set although I haven't played it for quite some time.

That's a relief !

Amazing how they would do that when it had clearly stated on the page that a Last Chance item is strictly limited to one item. Must have been a data entry keying error. People make mistakes.

So if you're scrupulous, there'll one more available from Mosaic; and if you're not, there'll be one more available on Ebay.

they acknowledged the mistake and are sending me a postage paid return label. i have two customer numbers, one with my office address and one with my home address. i account the error to that.

Did they send one to each address? If they did, it might be something to consider--keeping a set at each place.

#2930 arrived today.

I only got one, though. What's up with THAT?

[etherbored]

that's exactly what they did.

i opened, and was enjoying, #2913 when the second package showed up at home. initially, i thought someone in my family was nice enough to send me a set for my birthday. obviously, the enclosed invoices crashed my short lived hope.

Another data entry error. It IASW that's outta print, not Bitches Brew.

i like this copy, from the future projects page; "The following xxx releases are available for preorder."

is there something in the back room we don't know about?

Big relief - my Roach set finally arrived yesterday. it was held up in customs once more - feggers! (At least I had to pay only about 10 euro for it...)

[mikeweil]

Those customs bastids - I had to pay € 25 to get mine!

[king ubu]

worst is the package was bumped around quite a bit (by or after customs - I've never seen a package that went through directly that looked like this!) and one corner of the Roach box is a bit damaged (just "angestossen" - I won't bother Mosaic about sending me a replacement because of that). Anyway, as I got this for listening pleasure, not for making money out of it later, I'm happy I finally got it!

[J Larsen]

Actually, the last couple Mosaic boxes I've gotten (both direct from Mosaic) have been mashed up. Nothing worth asking for a replacement over, though.

30 for me... Seems like they guesstimated the actual worth of the parcel.

My Miles 63-64 box was pranged on arrival too but Mosaic were spiffing and sent out a replacement pronto.

I've been really enjoying my recent consumption of this set. Even though I had most of the music elsewhere, it is nice to have it packaged up like this. I also really like booklet. This strikes me as a glowing example of what liner notes and Mosaic booklets should be: an intelligent discussion of the music and its context that actually helps you hear and notice what you might otherwise not have.

I'm glad I took the plunge.
