It seems this time the Box Set is indeed limited, as it is pretty hard to find at the usual retailers. Amazon in Germany still hasn't it yet. Sites with questionable reviews like uDiscover, the mk Page with horrendous shipping fee have it and a page called bravado which I have no experience with.
How is it among amiters? Who wants the big Box Set?
Who has ordered it already and where?
LE
-
I do but I'm gambling on it not actually being that limited and hoping that it will turn up on UK Amazon.

Ordered here: https://www.northendhaarlem.nl/a-85943726/vinyl/mark-knopfler-one-deep-river-3lp-2cd/

I have little to no faith in the official MK store getting me the box on release day hence why I'm holding out for Amazon...
-
My strategy: I’ve ordered the box set from the official store. I’ll buy a more basic CD edition of the album on the day of release, so I’ll at least get to hear the album itself on release day and then I won’t mind too much if the box set arrives a little later.
-
Yeah, I did it with the light blue coloured vinyl edition. I want that one in any case so I will have the vinyl double but that's ok with me.
LE
-
I think it was the Privateering box where the official store said it would be limited. And so I ordered, for quite a deluxe price. Only to later find out that it wasn't all that limited and found much cheaper in stores right after the release.
-
I will wait until it appears in Amazon Spain.
-
The DTRW Box Set is also still available. The only one I haven't got. But back then you could buy it everywere, even in stores like infamous Media Markt. ;D

I did the same, good price. I’m wondering if we get it on the release day itself or if he sends them on the actual day and they arrive in the weekend or even Monday.

It’s funny you say that LE, here at the Media Markt too. Last year I saw the DTRW LP, random find. Quite nice actually.
-
The song order on the DTRW LP from the Studio box is much better, more complete, so I guess I will let that one go. It was made pretty cheap anyway. Nothing special. At least with the new ODR Box we've got some.... "things".. :lol
LE
-
I ordered the boxset from Universal music and hope it works well!
-
This time I didn’t order the box. It’s still damn expensive and my current vinyl player isn’t that good. Previous very ultra rare limited extreeeeeeemely low volume produced boxes are still available somewhere. Ordered the 2 CD set for now. I bought the DTRW box set as I really wanted the bonus tracks on some proper medium. But as we know, they were released in the end with even more bonus songs. Yesterday, I bought the second studio albums CD box set (verrrrrrrry limited!!!) for €27 including free shipping. Fair price imo.
-
Yes it changes daily at the Moment.. :lol there sits a little collector's soul inside of me. I have no doubt that the four vinyl bonus songs will turn up digital somewhere sooner or later, probably sooner. But it is so nice to have it on vinyl, isn't it. They totally got me with this stuff.
It's also risky to be among the first ones. It would be smarter to wait for reports about pressing and sound quality before spending that much money...
LE
-
...in the meantime, Amazon.it, .de and .fr seem to have run out of copies of the 2 CD edition!! Is that true or is it my presbyopia?? :hmm :hmm :hmm
-
That happens more often on amazon: they run “out of stock”, check how many people search for the product, buy a new batch and sell it for a higher price. After a while, the stock lasts and the prices drop again. I would not worry about the 2CD pack to run out. It’s typically the 1 CD pack which becomes rare (RPD, SL). Quite hard to find. Not that anyone would want this anyway, but it’s rare. :lol

For the last decade or so, I have been working for a big record shop. The MK box sets and the live DS one, were ordered through the official distributor and arrived a couple of days before the official release date. The price however was not the lowest one, I found out later. The distributors in other countries seem to have different prices and after sometime some of them even had them on sale. I was able to get MK first CD box set of albums for as low as 12 Euros (plus tax) and the second one for 18 (plus tax). The live DS boxset is relatively new to be on sale. The deluxe editions of MK were discounted on larger shops but not from the distributors, except one, but by then I already had bought it. I think that these multi editions, are for fans like us that want to have everything. And it still strikes me as very odd that MK management is allowed to market these new recordings like this, because MK never allowed the DS recordings to be released with any extra discs, bonus material, etc. And even if there are not many B sides or demos, there are many live recordings that could become the second extra - disc easily. I hoped it had something to do with the integrity of the original release, that is often disrupted by other artists that release deluxe editions, but it seems to be another reason I can not get.
-
As we know, the Box Set contains the Standard CD plus the separate Bonus CD. Could this mean that the 20 Page Booklet that comes with the 2CD Digipack Edition is not included in the Box Set? :think
LE
-
Possible, but it's just four extra pages. Extra track lyrics?

According to the official description, the double CD has a "Mint pack with 16pg Booklet". Unfortunately, this Booklet is not listed separately in the box set. But I assume that this is included with the LPs. But still we don´t know.
-
Thank you, I wasn't aware of that.

According to the product descriptions I've seen, the regular standard CD has a 16 page booklet. So the deluxe 2CD has four additional pages, assuming the contents are identical otherwise.

It transpires, thanks largely to my friend who owns a local record store that the box set is not available in record shops but only at the official store..

If you Google there are some other options but I think they are all linked to Universal in some way.

On Friday I received the notification from local distributor. Box was not included. One CD, two CD, 2LP, and 2LP indie versions. But Amazon.fr had the box
-
I ordered the Box at northendharleem.nl as Dutchessy suggested. They confirmed my order but today I saw that he Box was removed from their Homepage. So I hope I will get it for real.
I also ordered the 2CD and the babyblue vinyl edition at German jpc.de. They managed to send me the Going Home vinyl one day after release date so I am confident.

Does anyone know if the European and Canadian versions are different?

According to MK.com they are the same, but I noticed today on Amazon UK that the bonus songs on the De Luxe CDs are listed as:
Disc: 2
1 Dolly Shop Man
2 Your Leading Man
3 Wrong'un
4 Chess
The De Luxe 2 CDs on MK.com are listed as:
Disc 2:
1. The Living End
2. Fat Chance Dupree
3. Along A Foreign Coast
4. What I’m Gonna Need
5. Nothing But Rain
:hmm
-
Thanks. That's confusing. But at least it seems to be the same tracks, so you don't have to buy 4 different versions to get them all.
I ordered the 2 cd digipack with the booklet from amazon weeks ago, but I think I'll get the box set as well because of those bonus tracks: And the plectrums, of course :lol

I really wanted the five bonus songs version as on MK.com.

I am sure it's just a mistake. They got lost with so much bonus.

Are you referring to the Box Set (which is what this thread is about)?

Does the box set come with a redeemable download code? Last time with DTRW, I got all songs through 'The Sound of Vinyl'.

It doesn't say it anywhere, with DTRW it was said.
-
The download codes seem to be dying out.
I was all set to buy the box set until I got the Going Home single.
The vinyl quality on that was very poor, and it also wasn't great on the first solo box I bought. So I have the blu-ray coming and I will wait for online reports about the quality in the box.
The MK records used to be top quality, ie Privateering and Tracker, so it's disappointing that they are now using GZ with its terrible quality. I can't remember if the DTRW vinyl was OK or not, I only played it once.
-
I'm not keen on vinyl at all, really. Too much hassle. I'll only buy the box because of the bonus tracks.
But actually I was quite surprised that with DTRW, the bonus tracks were not even included in the download :-(

Not at the beginning but we made noise enough until all tracks were included.
-
Huh? I downloaded about 4 weeks ago, because I'd forgotten all about it, and they were not included. :hmm

They were in 2019, I have all the songs included the bonus tracks, all of them, in digital, downloaded at the time.
At first they only included the songs of the standard edition, we claimed that the digital download was from the box so the download codes must be of all the songs included in the box, and in the end, all the songs, the extra songs from the cd and the extra songs from the vinyl were included as digital.
-
For those who have already received the box, is the code for downloading the tracks included? :think

My box set arrives tomorrow...
-
Mine was sent off today
-
Today we received the first batch of things in the store. No colour edition though, although ordered. Maybe later? No box set available and no tape available from the official Universal in Greece. Amazon.fr has the box set at 105 Euros.
-
All formats had little sticker, made in Czech republic. Hmmm.

Funny, I noticed on Amazon that Check Republic was the origin and I thought it was perhaps the store they were using. All is now clear.
-
Amazon and other shops, have sent the ordered box sets today, so depending on where you are, you might receive it tomorrow or next week.
By the way, not meaning to nag, but the wholesale price of the records and the CDs is more than what I paid for the retail price of the editions of Privateering in 2012.
Inflation is on another level completely... :disbelief
-
The box set was waiting for me when I got back from London! Initially I'm impressed...
-
Lucky you Knopfler fan.
You Saw MK maybe last time live today.
Now enjoying the Box set.
I heard the album 3 times today. Really nice one.
Have to hear the Bonus songs now.
Tomorrow off to Joe Bonamassa in Munster :wave

I received the box set today.
I haven't yet had time to listen to all 21 songs in full, but I can already say at this point that it's an outstanding album.

Are you talking about the 5 "bonus" songs on the second CD, the 4 "bonus" songs available only on LP in the box, or both?
-
Just listened to the 4 vinyl bonus tracks and personally all are good bar 'Wrong'un' which I'm not keen on at all - it's bland and no guitar solo at all..
Dolly shop man is unbelievably up beat and similar to Beryl, your leading man is very twee and Chess is just unbelievably good!

Brilliant I'm pleased that you are pleased. I know I am with mine too... :wave

Yes the quality of the vinyl pressing is a pleasant surprise.
The price is too high for what you get though so a download code should have been included.
-
Disagree about the price, see my post in the Dolly Shop Man thread. Agree about the download Codes (for the bonus Material.).
Wow, Dolly Shop Man was the real "WOW" effect now at the first spinning of the vinyl. I knew it from the kindly spreaded digital versions but here I clearly remember Guy saying that the album was made for vinyl.

Seems to be sold out in the MK.com store.
Perhaps this time it was even more limited than previous boxes?

Germany's Bravado.de which is part of Universal, says it is still available within 2 days. I got it from there for 99,99 €.

It has only run out from the shop. The shop had an specific quantity and the rest were distributed to the world. It is the same with all artists' shops. Usually after some time they get returns from the other vendors and restock.
