Amazon.de must be wrong, they told Mona they didn't know...

I hope im right  ;D

It beggars belief, that with only a month till release date, the details about the box content is still so uncertain. I certainly won't be placing my order until I know 100% the exact contents.
Surely by now there would have been some 'official' news!? :-\
I still havn't through choice, albeit a very hard desision, even listened to any of the circulating iTunes snippets yet. Although in my eyes, this just leads to a sweeter experience when I finally get my hands on a copy in Sept. :D

Amazon UK doesnt have any description, so it looks like the German site put something in a hurry, or at least I hope its that.

The description from Fnac.com looks does more sense with all the previous rumours.

About the official description of the box, yesterday I had a tweet from Salvador Design telling that the cover for the box he designed will be available in the pre-orders site very soon, so I guess thats what the official sources are waiting for, to have the final box design to put the whole description online.

I have just cancelled my order - I don't want "A Life in Songs", if the concert download is MK/BD I have loads of those already, if it is Simfy, I have those too and I don't want the vinyl, so that just leaves the bonus songs, which I can have on the 3 CD version.  If we find out more, in the meantime, I will re-order!

The thing of that pre-order you made is that they have to respect the price they gave you when you pre-ordered. If they increase the price, they have to charge you the price they had when you pre-ordered. If you take too long to pre-order again, you would loose that avantage.

The 3cd version has the live songs from the MK/BD tour rehearsals, but doesnt have the 3 bonus songs that are in the box.

As far as I know, you can cancel the pre-order before the release without charges, so until anything is crystal clear, as far as amazon.de has the cheaper price, I stick with it.

I want the vinyl anyway, so when you count the vinyl + the 3 CD-version it's just a little bit more. In the Netherlands it says EPK-DVD!!!

So Val, I think JBaent has a point, you can cancel till it will be send to you, so I suppose cancellation till a couple of days before the 31st of August. On the other hand most of the times prices will drop half a year later or so.

The fact that most of the sites says EPK-DVD is what makes me thing that amazon.de is wrong about the content of the dvd.

Regarding the price dropping half a year later, come on Ingridswing, we are get-a-lifers, we need the box as soon as we can!!!!

Ok, I am a get-a-lifer  ;D And I order it the box the first hour that it was put online in the Netherlands.
Even worse I also ordered the 2CD-version to have it delivered at the office, in case I can't wait till the workingday has ended. And I already know what will happen at the 31st: I will drive home in between to have the box in hands as well.

Yes ... get-a-lifer is the right name  :P

Probably the box will be in the store on the day before, so hopefully they give it to me on Thursday, that's my day off.

Yes Jeroen that's what always happened when we still had a store in our village. Now it's gone I have to rely on online-orders   >:(
