Today I ordered the Deluxe LP Box Set. Terribly expensive!  :o 16 november. Why do we have to wait so long ...

Amazon Germany offers the Box for 79,99 €. The description is (still) wrong or incomplete. But that's usual the first days/weeks. They started with 103 € last week.

I also asked at Media Markt last week 79 €. No Info yet about a possible exclusive Media Markt track.

Yesterday it was priced 112 euros, I used their link to show them cheaper prices and it looks like they reduced it :)

Does anybody have an idea or any experience where you should order the Deluxe LP Box Set in order to get it the fastest (i.e. ideally on release day)?

Yeah, support your local shop, if it is possible.

Slightly cynical from you as often. Coincidentally I exactly share your opinion, but the question was where to get it the fastest possible way. They are excellent in what they do. And maybe you have to compromise strong opinions when it comes to the new MK album. For me it's easy, it's indeed Media Markt within one kilometer and they have all editions usually on the evening before release day. But if you live somewhere into nowhere, or on an island, it's maybe not that easy and Amazon is the best choice. You cannot be political correct ALL the time, can you?

Unfortunately, this is not a chance to many people, and Amazon is the best choice specially if you have prime account and you can get it in a locker close to where you leave and you can pick it when you come home for work instead of fight with stupid delivery agencies driver that for an unknown reason can't go to your house when you are in your house and their office close before you can arrive there to pick it up

I do understand, of course. That's why I've been saying "if it is possible". Amazon does a superb job when it comes to making things easily available.

The last MK record I bought in a local store was Shangri-la, since then, it was impossible so I had to purchase from big stores or internet, and big stores are one hour and a half far from me so, Amazon is my friend...

Ok, then it is the only viable option. However, the best thing is, we are talking about a new album   :wave

I'm absolutely certain now. A long time has passed and the album has passed the time test successfully. Knopfler's best album with Sailing to Philadelphia.

It's only a couple of months.  A couple of years will give a truer reflection.

I'll give an example of this theory.  When the film Pulp Fiction was released I was at high school and everyone, including many critics, thought it was the best film ever released.  Really.  Looking back to 1993 now it clearly isn't.  It's a very good film but there are many, many better films released before and it.  There was a real hysteria over the film in some circles at the time.

Same with BIA back in '85.  Now looking back I prefer OES, an album I was disappointed with on release.  Only years will tell how an album will fare.
