Jimi Hendrix - "Electric Ladyland" (50th Anniversary Edition with new 5.1 mix on Blu-Ray) 11/9/2018

[Clint Eastwood]

Wow! That's great.......I'm still good with The Moose.

I dropped amazon...just wanted to give someone else the order...

I'm sticking with AmazonUS ...... I'm 'stoked' after finally hearing the AP SACD remaster of Axis Bold as Love so I want to get it on the day or release ...... not worth it over a couple 'o bucks!

I'm sure I'll find a way of utilizing that $5 off coupon from the Shark.

Ralphie...I didn't just dump amazon over a few bucks...what initiated the "dump" was an email from amazon telling me I could expect delivery on the 15th or 16th...and after they screwed me on the Big Pink I switched sides...to be candid I was looking for some way to dump them...I still buy some things from them...but not a lot of music...IMO they are letting their core business methods erode...prompt delivery used to be one of their main assets...now even if you pay an additional fee to get your music on a certain day it doesn't always work...

I think this is a new strategy from Bullmoose...they can't compete with amazon on price so they are doing the next best thing...providing better customer service...quicker shipping...I only paid for "economy" shipping and I got priority mail shipping and got it early...they might not be able to do that all the time...but it won't take much for me to pick them over amazon...I'm looking for ways to NOT order from amazon...sometimes I will have no choice..like on the Rush box set...it was just much much cheaper than everybody else..

I just checked my order status with AmazonUS and they stated they need a little more time to estimate delivery date. I've been saying all along that AmazonUS' prices on music discs, most especially SACDs, is no longer cheap. I do find they have the BEST prices on BD~Vs and especially UHD 4K but that's probably to compete with Best Buy, Target, etc.

I suppose, Clinty, you don't become a TRILLION DOLLAR CORPORATION by giving things away.

Although today, I did received a Pure Audio BD~A/V with RBCD brand new, sealed from AmazonUS for $11 shipped and some places are charging upwards of $40......probably just a fluke! And it even contains 3D Video!

I mentioned amazon's pricing in another post a couple of months ago...it was about amazonUK but it appears this policy is now in effect on amazon US....you won't automatically get the lowest price on pre orders UNLESS it lists Pre-Order Price Guarantee on the listing....HERE

Thanks for the heads up...so now when I pre-order from Amazon I need to take note of whether or not it has a pre-order price guarantee...geez, one more column for the spreadsheet

And even if they put it in the listing...if there is a price drop...check you order to see if they updated it and if not cancel the order and re order at the new low price...

oops

OK - I'm not one to decipher these things...but here is one song......

Unfortunately you failed to "decipher" the right thread...this is the Hendrix thread

AmazonUS, at least presents an ease to cancelling their pre~orders and re~ordering. I've noticed, Deep Discount and even ImportCDs also reduce their prices and if you've pre~ordered from them, they'll charge you the price you ordered it at. I had that problem recently with ImportCD and they ended up canceling my order.

Yes, I got the Hemispheres-Heads Up-Price Drop from GOS some time ago...thanks for that otherwise I wouldn't have noticed...

 

[MyCuff]

Cancelled my order at big river and saved $5 with the chestnuts discount. Thanks!

Just preordered this from Amazon.ca for $53.17 CAD cheapest I've seen so far. (as a Canadian)

I just checked my ORDER STATUS @ AmazonUS and it states Electric Ladyland will be delivered on November 9th, the day/date of release.

I promise...this one is gonna be a winner.

I'm still recovering from HOW GREAT the AP STEREO SACD remaster of Axis: Bold As Love sounds on my system.

All along the watchtower is one of my all time great songs...top 5...but as far as the albums go...the upcoming stereo release is a bucket list item...Purple Haze...Foxey Lady...Hey Joe...geeze...for days I used to go around and randomly say "purple haze"...nothing else....just "purple haze" to the astonishment of whoever was around at the time..

PURPLE HAZE



Clinty's new BuzzWord!

Just hope it sounds as great as Axis. Remember Steve Hoffman heard the original analogue master tapes and stated he was NOT impressed.

You must be one of those Prime members. For someone like me who travels in steerage, the delivery still says Nov 15 - 16. Mine is another "goes under the Christmas tree" purchase. So if it has issues like ISOTLC, I will be able to send it back unopened.

Yeah, ar, membership DOES have its privileges, but lately Amazon has been somewhat erratic in both their pricing and their guaranteed 2 day delivery services. And other than FREE {?} s/h, I don't take advantage of any of Amazon's PRIME perks.

How about this to remember

Steven Wilson Home Invasion 11/2....In Search of the Lost Chord(Moody Blues)11/2...Jethro Tull This Was 11/9...Hendrix Electric Ladyland 11/9...Beatles White Album 11/9... Rush Hemispheres 11/16...Anthony Phillips Field Day 11/16...

I've yet to order the Hemispheres set and I'm starting to feel tempted over the Electric Ladyland set too. Also looking forward to the Marillion Clutching at Straws set as well. [emoji4]
