tonyfranciosa Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Not yet, but it's the same distributor as the Suede box and that became available on Amazon UK for US shipping, so... Ah so many box sets this fall - Suede, J&MC, the Jam... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitterhappier Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Want, but probably gonna be too expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Want, but probably gonna be too expensive Feel the same way. I don't have any of their albums on my shelf. If the box set is priced comparably to picking up the albums individually, I'll probably jump on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youinreverse Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 This looks nice, but I can't afford all these box sets that are coming out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kriss Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 i would jump on this if i didn't already have most of the studio albums, as well as various LP comps of the bbc recordings/demos, etc - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Us Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 This is down to 114GBP on amazon.co.uk.. So don't sleep on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tussin Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 This is down to 114GBP on amazon.co.uk.. So don't sleep on this. I've now talked myself into buying this. $210.99 on myplaydirect.com is the cheapest price I can find right now. However they want $45 for shipping. Does anyone know of any current valid coupon codes? Kicking myself for not making the decision last month when Amazon.co.uk was @ 114 GBP.

tonyfranciosa Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 I'm locked in at 96 GBP shipped to the US on Amazon UK and very excited to get this set. I have nice copies of Darklands and Psychocandy, but there's too much good stuff here that I need to pass it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrodan Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 just a heads up, but i pulled the trigger on this last night. turns out amoeba has it on their site for $249.99 w/ free shipping. couple that with the 20% code they are offering for january and i was able to get it out the door for $212.48ppd. seems like that may be the best deal around for american buyers. it is still up on the site, so you may wanna give it a try yourself. http://www.amoeba.com/the-complete-vinyl-collection-lp-the-jesus-and-mary-chain/albums/3066113/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tussin Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 It's currently 133 pounds on amazon.co.uk but when you add it to your cart and check out it comes to 114 pounds shipped (standard shipping) to the U.S. With the conversion that's roughly $189. I'm guessing the UK VAT is being subtracted. Either way it's the cheapest I've found to get it to the US. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/s/ref=is_box_music?k=jesus+And+Mary+Chain+vinyl+collection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrodan Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 bummer, couldve saved about $17. oh well. peeps should jump on that. these things sell on the machine for well over $300. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tussin Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 For anyone who has this, how do these remastered versions sound? Has anybody compared them with original presses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrodan Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 i got mine a couple days ago and it is far and away the best box set i have ever gotten. all the lps were pressed from the original tapes and sound fucking perfect. 180 gram vinyl with super legit reproductions of the original sleeves and inners. so many times i am let down by the quality of a product i pay good money for, but with this set i feel like the price i paid was a steal. do not sleep on this set.

tonyfranciosa Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 it's an amazing set - comparable to the Suede set that came out last year, as well. my only grip was the shipping w/Amazon UK again. Just thrown in a box for overseas shipping with nothing more than some paper filling. The records are fine, but the outer box is a tad scuffed and the sides of the box started to have the paper peel and lift off the cardboard. I think some people had theirs arrive in shrinkwrap and there was none to be found on mine, so that could have been the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
