"Santana" SACD out in September from Sony Japan (!)

[musicmemorabiliashoppellc]

I've not had any issues with Import CD's, I believe they are owned by Deep Discount DVD's. But mine has not shipped and I see the same thing "Back-Order." Perhaps Import CD's shipment is a bit delayed to them?

Doesn't suprise me in the least

As long as I get mine before Christmas.......and before Santana III is for sale at CDJapan

Lest we forget, Jeffie, they have to EXPORT IT from Japan first before they IMPORT it @ ImportCD!

But RALPHIE.....shouldn't they get it about the same time we did, especially since they are a major WHOLESELLER, if not sooner?

Yea Ralphie yea!

As with even AmazonUK, discs manufacturered in other countries usually have releases first in their country of origin and then make their way to U.S. retailers.

That's always the way it was ..... and will be ..... unfortunately. Just like RHINO released the Doobies Quadio boxset excusively from their website first and then to general retailers 2 months later.

I get that, but if WE CONSUMERS can get it "SANTANA" from Japan this early, than IMPORTS should be able to as well, if not earlier....THAT IS MY POINT

In theory, yes but in releasing it first in the country of origin, it's a great ploy to encourage purchasing it from Japan [ever hear of Nationalism] and then delaying the release in other countries by a few weeks.

And with this pandemic thingy doubtful Sony Japan would employ expedited shipping to the states as it would be costly as their prices to other retailers are predicated on a wholesale level.

Import CD usually doesn't include the additional s/h and local sales tax charges on their emails, Jeff.

Yeah--I don't get what the Isleys are doing there. But otherwise: woo-hoo!

 

[jefe1]

Maybe we're getting a photo of the Isley Brothers with our discs too.

Dat's a STEAL!

But I'll have waited almost 3 weeks longer than all of you first-kids-on-your-block. You've probably gotten an extra $20 worth of enjoyment in the mean time...
