The Beatles - Abbey Road 50th Anniversary (5.1 & Dolby Atmos mixes)

[JerseyEd]

Just like The White Album reissue didn’t include the single versions of Hey Jude and Revolution, Abbey Road reissue also excludes the single versions of The Ballad Of John And Yoko and Old Brown Shoe. Perhaps this indicates a greater likelihood that a Past Masters reissue will appear at some point down the road.

...or, a 5.1 revised version of the Hey Jude/Beatles Again album. I would substitute Day Tripper and We Can Work It Out for I Should Have Known Better and Can't Buy Me Love (and add The Inner Light) which would give the non-album single releases from the Rubber Soul era onward.

D'oh, forgot about You Know My Name (Look Up The Number) which I luv.

I tried to order from burning shed but the postage cost is £50!
Works out $175 at JB HiFi is still a bit cheaper.

Anybody having a problem or success using their bullmoose points for this?

 

[Mesozoic Mike]

That's it! No more listening to The Beatles until Abbey Road arrives at my house.
Well, maybe early Beatles. No No No. No Beatles until September 27th.

11 dollars extra for SHM . . . hmm. Always prefer that over regular CDs! Add shipping costs / time, though, and I think I'll pass. . . .

I wish I had enough Bull Moose points for this! But this might give me enough points to use for a Let it Be box next year.

Last year, Bull Moose's initial price for The White Album beat everybody else's, but they quickly raised the price and I didn't order soon enough. So since Bull Moose seems to be beating all the various Amazon sites, I'm going with them right now. If someone else beats their price, I can always cancel.

They're not beating amazon.fr by a couple of dollars, but that might be close enough?

Import CDs currently has a pre-order price of $77.42. It would not surprise me if they have a sale / promo code available soon with the US Labor Day holiday in early September.

They do tack on shipping (and tax for some) though. Still a very good deal (for some), at this point.

Deep Discount's price is $90. They have sales a lot more frequently, usually 15% off. If that happens, they might be a better deal than Import CDs, since Deep Discount has free shipping. (Although sometimes they don't do that for larger items.)

Oh yeah, forgot about the VAT! But yeah, for a difference of less than $3, I'd rather go with the Moose. Hopefully I'll have it on release date.

I’m trying to figure out the same thing. I used points previously, but I don’t remember how. I left a message and hopefully they will get back to me soon.

It's a bit goofy how they apply points but it works; you don't interact with it until the checkout stage. I ordered ABBEY ROAD and then selected Dream Theater disc I didn't have and applied the points to that by clicking black link as shown:

Seems like they're not allowing the points for Abbey Road, possibly.
It would make them the best price, for me. I messaged them as well.

 

[milt]

Pre-ordered from Amazon.jpDid the same for Pepper, WA & Imagine.
Too late to stop now.
Hey it's the bloody Beatles

I’m still on the fence about SHM, but also how much of the text is in Japanese

Ok, so they replied. I now think I understand their points policy. You have to use more points than the item's dollar value, which gets you 1/2 off. You'd need 84 points for Abbey Road. Moose still seems like a good deal though. And you build points for later...

You may be right. I’m in the same boat as this would be the best deal for me. Hopefully they will get back to me and clarify the situation.
