I managed to get a copy through Play.com for 70GBP which arrived on Saturday [a one an only copy it seemed]- I was originally stupid enough to stump-up 140 notes to buy a copy through one of Play's 'Playtraders' under the name of 'Funnyman1'... and here is a warning ... Immediately after purchase they listed my item as dispatched, which removed my ability to cancel the order - a few days later I received an email stating that they were awaiting stock and there had been a delay. to quote [sic].
"Hi, Due to a delay at EMI in Germany this set is now due for release on
Monday 19th October,I'll send A.S.A.P after that. Sorry for any
inconvience."
I knew then this was BS and called Play who dealt with the matter - But I see this person is still listing the item, and no doubt playing the same trick...so beware! I think they are working under the assumption there is to be further copies released and stringing people along.
Anyway, despite all that, I am delighted with my copy and its contents...and though expensive, do not think it represents bad value for money.
