mikelz777 Posted November 10, 2008 Report Posted November 10, 2008 Get out your Mosaic wish list, you may be able to save yourself a lot of money on select Mosaics at deepdiscount.com. The following Selects are on sale for $35.99 with free shipping! (Grab them while you can, I don't know how long the sale lasts.) -Dizzy Reece -Gerry Mulligan -Bennie Green -Randy Weston -Grachan Moncur -Sidney Bechet Check out any big boxes you're looking for as well. I see some of them are on sale at significant savings. Quote
trane_fanatic Posted November 10, 2008 Report Posted November 10, 2008 I wonder how many of the big boxes they actually have in stock. It's almost too good to be true. Quote
mikelz777 Posted November 10, 2008 Author Report Posted November 10, 2008 (edited) I'd take advantage myself but the Mosaics I don't already have are more a "like/nice to have" vs. "gotta have". Still, there are some great savings there if you're already in the market for them. Edited November 10, 2008 by mikelz777 Quote
Tjazz Posted November 10, 2008 Report Posted November 10, 2008 (edited) Deepdiscount also lists some of the big box Mosaics; Ellington Chu Berry $85 Quincy Jones $65 Columbia Small Group box Lou Donaldson Also some BEAR FAMILY box sets are discounted. The DVD sale was 25% this year. Maybe sales are slow all over the place. (Mosaic included) Edited November 10, 2008 by Tjazz Quote
Dave James Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 I just ordered the Quincy Jones box. They said they are temporarily out of stock, but will ship as soon as more arrive. They must've struck some kind of direct deal with Mosaic like Collector's Choice does from time to time. If that's the case, maybe they will get more. I'm guessing there's about a 50/50 chance it'll ever happen, but at $65.00 with free S&H, I guess I'm willing to roll the dice. You don't get charged until the order ships, so it's not like you're out anything. I'll re-post if and when it's warranted. Up over and out. Quote
Tom 1960 Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 (edited) How do these guys sell these sets at such a low price as opposed to purchasing directly from Mosaic? Everything is intact? I'm definitely interested in knowing. Edited November 11, 2008 by Tom 1960 Quote
captainwrong Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 My guess is they buy from a distributor and have a very small profit margin on everything because they make it up in volume. Their prices on most anything are the best around and I've bought tons of DVD box set for dirt cheap prices from them (too many sets, judging from the number I've still yet to watch.) Quote
Ron S Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 Just ordered the Mulligan and Bechet Selects. Thanks for the head's-up! Quote
Tjazz Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 Looks like alot of the Mosaic SINGLES are also on sale thru deepdiscount. $12.17 each Quote
mr jazz Posted November 16, 2008 Report Posted November 16, 2008 thanks. ordered the Quincy box. At this price, no rush to receive it Quote
Dave James Posted November 19, 2008 Report Posted November 19, 2008 Looks like Chuck was right. If I'm reading the tea leaves correctly, the Quincy Jones box has shipped from Deep Discount. Should be here in a few days. Nice. Up over and out. Quote
mgraham333 Posted November 20, 2008 Report Posted November 20, 2008 I got the Columbia Small Group Swing on sale. Arrived quickly. Quote
Ron S Posted November 20, 2008 Report Posted November 20, 2008 I got the Columbia Small Group Swing on sale. Arrived quickly. Just out of curiosity, was the booklet hand-numbered on the inside cover? Quote
mjzee Posted November 20, 2008 Report Posted November 20, 2008 Is there an easy way to search for the Mosaics? Quote
mikelz777 Posted November 20, 2008 Author Report Posted November 20, 2008 Is there an easy way to search for the Mosaics? "Mosaic selects" should get you all the selects. For the big boxes you'll have to search for the ones you are interested in individually and hope that the one(s) you want is on sale. Quote
Ron S Posted November 20, 2008 Report Posted November 20, 2008 Incidentally, I received the 2 Selects (Mulligan and Bechet) I ordered from Deep Discount in short order. Quote
mr jazz Posted November 20, 2008 Report Posted November 20, 2008 My Quincy box shipped. After really enjoying the jazz icons DVD, I look forward to this complement. Quote
Ron S Posted November 22, 2008 Report Posted November 22, 2008 (edited) Import CDs is currently selling the Woody Herman Select through Buy.com for only $32.75 plus $2.25 shipping: http://www.buy.com/prod/mosaic-select/q/lo.../207988486.html I ordered one a few days ago, it was shipped the very next day, and I received it today. Some of the Deep Discount Select bargains listed in the first post of this thread are also available through the Buy.com site (for the same price as on the Deep Discount site and also with free shipping): http://www.buy.com/umerch/q/orderby/0/quer...aic+select.html Edited November 22, 2008 by Ron S Quote
ejp626 Posted November 28, 2008 Report Posted November 28, 2008 It looks like most of the insanely great prices are gone. The Mosiac Selects are back at a price where it doesn't make much sense to order from them rather than direct from Mosaic. There may still be some savings on the boxes but not a huge savings. I'm seriously disappointed as I was going to buy the Chu Berry set but wanted to wait until I wrapped up three papers as a incentive to get these done. Well, the papers are done but the reward isn't that inticing anymore. Guess I learned my lesson (normally I jump on these sales but really held back this time). Quote

The Woody Herman ($35.23 shipped) and Randy Weston ($35.99 shipped) Selects are still being offered at great prices (follow the 2 links in my post immediately above). Quote
