Tom in RI Posted June 4, 2008 Report Posted June 4, 2008 I just today received an email noting that Amazon is canceling the order, oh well. Quote
michel1969 Posted June 4, 2008 Report Posted June 4, 2008 (edited) Complete 1955-1957 Quartet Quintet Sextet Sessions [bOX SET] This is a 6-CD set currently listed for $18.99 at Amazon as of this writing. (see the link below) It indicates shipping within 1 to 3 weeks but if they actually fulfill the order at this price, it's well worth the wait. Why would this be selling so cheap? I thought I got a good deal when I paid $48.00 for mine. http://www.amazon.com/Complete-1955-1957-Q...9452&sr=8-2 The cover is a recycling of the "Steve Kuhn Trio" on Contact ! steve kuhn trio Edited June 4, 2008 by Michel Quote
Free For All Posted June 4, 2008 Report Posted June 4, 2008 I just today received an email noting that Amazon is canceling the order, oh well. Me too. I wonder what happened. Quote
robviti Posted June 4, 2008 Report Posted June 4, 2008 could it be due to the fact that it is illegal to sell this material in the u.s.? nah, probably not. Quote
relyles Posted June 4, 2008 Report Posted June 4, 2008 Strange. I actually received my order a couple of weeks ago. Quote
sidewinder Posted June 4, 2008 Report Posted June 4, 2008 Strange. I actually received my order a couple of weeks ago. Sounds as if there were just one or two of them. Oh well... Quote
michel1969 Posted June 4, 2008 Report Posted June 4, 2008 Now it sells for 77 ++ $ @ Amazon ! and 67 € at Amazon.fr Quote
captainwrong Posted June 5, 2008 Report Posted June 5, 2008 I just today received an email noting that Amazon is canceling the order, oh well. Me too. I wonder what happened. Me three. My guess is, if they're still selling it, someone messed up with the pricing and claiming it's out of stock, never to return and creating a new entry in their system for it is easier than selling however many at a loss. Oh well, just wait six months and it'll probably start showing up at Half Price Books for $20. Quote

I've tried ordering it from Circuit City, of all places. No telling whether I'll get hold of one! Greg Mo Quote
relyles Posted June 5, 2008 Report Posted June 5, 2008 I suppose I should consider myself extremely fortunate to have received it at the low price. Quote

jazzkrow Posted June 17, 2008 Report Posted June 17, 2008 Anybody have any recent luck finding this set at anything near the original under $25 advertised price? I put in an order at Circuit City-now 2+ weeks with no luck Amazon, CD Universe, and recently Borders all list at a very high price over $50.... Dusty Groove does not have it on their radar for future purchase- Would be nice to have all this material (12 CDs worth) all in one place! Quote
jazzkrow Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 Up for air... Any of you bargain hunters out there, have any luck finding this set at a reasonable price? Quote
Van Basten II Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 Just ordered from this site http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/store/arti...4090340,00.html Quote
jazzkrow Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 (edited) Van Basten: Did they confirm they could get this set at this price and more importantly that they could actually get it? Others have advertised the set but can never get it! I tried to find a phone number for this company but had no luck! Edited June 19, 2008 by jazzkrow Quote
JETman Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 It seems to be available here: http://www.worldsrecords.com/cgi-bin/store...=06-19-08.22082 Quote
jazzkrow Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 maybe at $65 it is available-but not at under $20..... Quote

jazzkrow Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 Unfortunately, "accepting" is not the same thing as "filling" your order. Both Amazon and Circuit City "accepted" previous orders, then could not fill the order. Fingers crossed for you... Quote

Van Basten II Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 They don't mention anything being in stock, however the way it is written it is like a fait accompli. If you want to inquire more in the receipt there is a phone number an email adress. Quote

I think it's only marginally better than an "order is cancelled" email, but I guess hope springs eternal! Greg Mo Quote
