Stravinsky Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Has anyone in the States ever purchased anything from Amazon.fr? Just curious which shipping option to choose and what the packaging will be for the overseas trip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiatorhums Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Thanks so much. It came out to be $41.95 PPD for me. Same here. Couldn't resist it at this price. I also like that I know Amazon's layout so well that I can order no matter what the language is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throwgncpr Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Has anyone in the States ever purchased anything from Amazon.fr? Just curious which shipping option to choose and what the packaging will be for the overseas trip? No but I have purchased stuff from .uk that was shipped from .fr. Always came in great shape. in a record mailer inside of a padded box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aphasias Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Thanks for posting the amazon.fr deal! I had been looking for the bonus disc edition for a decent price, this is even better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celebdeath Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 BE VERY WARY buying from amazon.fr I bought the Rave Tapes boxset from them, shipped to Australia. All they did, ALL THEY DID was slap a postage label on the cellophane wrap that covered the box. I almost had a heart attack when i collected it from the post office. it came without any damage. biggest phew ever. EDIT: you guys that have bought one - be prepared....

ExtraFox Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 This was too good not to jump on. Arrived today in a big Amazon box with scrunched up thick paper in it and no actual protection around the box. Typical Amazon packaging and survived the trip just fine.

Youinreverse Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Does Amazon.fr send shipping confirmation emails? All I've gotten was an email to rate them on their packaging skills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't gotten that one yet. I wonder if I ordered too late and its on back order now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Thanks. I haven't gotten that one yet. I wonder if I ordered too late and its on back order now. Weird. I think I ordered after you and mine was shipped the next day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youinreverse Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Never got any sort of shipping email, but this showed up today. It's a beautiful set. The vinyl feels a lot thicker than the US pressings. It was shipped in a big box with a little bit of padding inside. My only complaint is that there was a bend in the cover and tear on the spine of the box. It looks like someone tried to pry up one of the corners of the box and caused it to rip. I don't think it was amazon or USPS' fault. It's not a big deal though. Happy to have this set for a very reasonable price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We ordered about the same time, so I'm hoping mine will be here today or Monday. I listened to this album pretty regularly when it came out and then shelved it, it'll be nice to revisit it.

glass realms Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 If anybody is willing to part with the cassette from their box set, let me know. I'd be interested in buying it from you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Got my box set in from Amazon.fr today safe and sound. Same packaging as Jared, big box with a decent amount of packing paper. Only disappointment is that the cassette, 7" and CD are just loose in the box and kind of bang around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celebdeath Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 that's good news! glad .fr is fixing up their packaging. i did leave some very unsatisfactory feedback for the purchase. hell, they may have actually read it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkhaytman Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Mine came in yesterday as well, big box, bunch of paper like last few accounts. The big box was beat to shit though, some dents on the boxset and everything in the box has nasty split seams, even the CD. Usually I just accept split seams as part of ordering online, but it really sucks when you buy a collectors item. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youinreverse Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I was expecting lots of seam splits when I saw everything was just kind of floating around in the box, but surprisingly, nothing was damaged inside the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
