Mine arrived at the Prime facility near me at 7am and is out for delivery now. I got lucky as this is the first time in quite a while that release day is met with a delivery for me.

yeah,I know that the Covid-19 crisis means there may be some delays.But other sellers (ImportCDs and Barnes and Noble) are getting their orders out pretty quickly.

.

can you not also understand the differences between a seller like importcds who only deal in music and amazon who are basiclly supplying the world with essentials and everything else while people stay home? i ordered from amazon, i was not promised delivery on the day of release anywhere in the order, so whats there to complain about? first world problems. get over it.

Just got back from my local "wrecka stow" with the Super CD Deluxe. Bought the last copy..(whew!!)...They were CRANKING "Housequake" when I walked in, so I knew things were cool. The booklet is amazing!...I got scared for a second because I only counted 7 CD's when I opened it...but one was tucked behind the other. biggrin .I like how the "heart" sticker is similar to the LP sticker (from back in the day)...Can't wait to dig into this..Bring on the "Parade" Super Deluxe for 2021!

Mine arrives Wednesday. Although, that's the initial time frame. It usually shortens up closer to the day. I'm thinking maybe Tuesday.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

Shipping shouldn't be affected; the labels print out automatically, they're stuck onto the pre-packed box and picked up by the shipper. COVID hasn't affected Amazon, a much bigger operation than Music Today (the estate's contractor).

WEIRD AMAZON UK SHENANIGANS! I preordered, on Prime, was told delivery due Tuesday. Had a look a minute ago - no change - but the same product (8CD edition) was available for delivery by 10pm today if I ordered now!!! So I’ve cancelled and reordered. Nuts!


It's my experience with Prince orders via Amazon that earliest orders ship last. There's no sense in pre-ordering ANYTHING anymore.

Ordered vinyl set back in June from Amazon US. Originally said 29th but just got email saying now being delivered tomorrow the 26th.

Been hard reading everyone's posts and refraining from listening!

Ordered from Amazon.co.uk. Not due till Tuesday. Not even posted yet so no auto-rip option. You guys ordering from ImportCDs? Have you used them before? Do they avoid colossal tax charges?

arrived from amazon uk today as promised. Vinyl arrived yesterday, even though had been told delay in despatch for a few days!?!?

strange thing is no autorip available????

I pre-ordered 25th June. Was told by Amazon both the Vinyl SDE and Peach 12" were delayed to the 29th September.



Imagine my joy when they were dispatched and then turned up today as originally promised.




I’ll have to imagine it because my fucking order (placed with Amazon on June 23) still says delivery on 9/29.

Can you not understand that Amazon provides some people with their orders on day of release yet not other people? With no rhyme or reason. Get over it.

Mine arrived today from Amazon UK. I ordered it in June.

I was surprised at the size of the package (fnar!). I ordered the CD SDE and thought it would be a similar size to the 1999 set with the book being resized to a cd size. Instead, it's a full vinyl sized box set that comes in a cardboard box with a cool peace symbol printed on it.

The book is gorgeous and the inclusion of the handwritten notes are great. The photos are amamzing, it is like a combination of the best books released over the last few years - the photographers, Prince's autobiography.

The 1999 SDE must have hit sales expectations for Warners to go all out on this one, and I hope this sells enough at this premium point that we get several more.

Haven't listened to anything yet, but already pleased with the purchase.

Checked the Amazon page again and it was 'handed to resident' which is their way of saying left on the doorstep without knocking or ringing the doorbell.

The SDE looks absolutely fantastic. biggrin
