Note that one disc is organ concerti, so you are missing only two discs of the Soler.

I am quite happy with the Naxos recordings, so no need for me to buy this Soler box however cheap :)

Not as much as not getting it. Just saying.

To save space I'll dispose of the 6 I already have. No need to duplicate  :).

I already have the organ concerti, can't say I like them as much as the other keyboard works. My favourite interpreter remains Mario Raskin on Arion/Pierre Vérany - alas he didn't record all the sonatas. Rowland and Belder have complementary qualities.

It's not in stock, but Amazon lists the Harbach set for $12.99: https://www.amazon.com/Antonio-Soler-Harpsichord-Sonatas-Samuel/dp/B00VFHWDR0/ref=sr_1_13?keywords=soler+sonatas&qid=1572821512&s=music&sr=1-13

Maybe it's legit.  It's definitely worth thirteen bucks.

It is so ordered. Thanks for the tip! It remains to be seen if it will materialize, but Amazon sent me a confirmation of my order. I have about half of the Belder and Rowland sets, with many holes left to plug. This will come in handy !

The motions of his spirit are dull as night,
And his affections dark as Erebus.

I've ordered the Harbach set too, and it tells me to expect it between November 21 and December 2. Yeah, we'll see.

I also ordered the Sinopoli Schoenberg/Berg/Webern set for $15 from Zoverstocks. Based on past experience with them, it'll probably be after the first of the year before I get it. But I can wait.

Some very shady business practices from Amazon, but this isn't anything new. They're known to lie (I'm sorry I meant make 'excuses') to customers on a daily basis.

Yeah, Zover can be slow but when I lived in the states I never had a problem with a single order. Another great vendor was Blowitoutahere in Kentucky.
