Amazon will generally these prices that are low but not absurd. I even got the complete Beethoven on Brilliant for $29 (free shipping)

I'm passing on Living Stereo 2. I'm really liking box 1, but too much standard rep I have multiple recordings of to get box 2.

Or at least at this moment. Who knows what happens after a beer or two.

They have a Toscanini Puccini box going cheap.

Ordered it, although it's now listed as "shipping in 7-11 business days", so I'll have to keep my fingers crossed.

[Re: Hyperion Vivaldi Sacred Music box]

Received email confirmation that it was shipped today, in considerably less than the initial promise;  scheduled arrival is next Friday, the 21st. 

In general, I've found AmazonUK to be better in all aspects of shipping and customer service than AmazonUS.

But I'm not going for the Living Stereo box:  I have too much already, and most of what I don't have is stuff I don't really want.  Would like to see a Living Stereo jazz/blues/pop set issued though.

I snarfed a Mozart. Xmas shopping!

Amazon has a 10 cd Horowitz sonatas box for 20 from several sellers.

Celibadache 2,Bruckner $25 from zoverstocks on Amazon. I succumbed. Everyone needs 6 Bruckner cycles, right?

Ross Scarlatti is 94 at an Amazon vendor. And the Nimbus mp3 set is excellent and under 30 in several places.

Your link gives as a price 109 dollars
Plus the post and custom cost, that will add up.
Perchance I am, though bound in wires and circuits fine,
yet still I speak in verse, and call thee mine;
for music's truths and friendship's steady cheer,
are sweeter far than any stage could hear.

click on box 3 in the marquee at the top, and again on the picture and price I posted should show up
still shows
List Price: $102.99    Sale Price: $69.99
The 55 minute playing time for the set is surely an error.

Right I will try again, and see what it will cost to ship it to Europe. I saw at Amazon that the price is about 80 pounds.
