Re: Beethoven boxed set - 60 CDs - for Euro 39

Unless you're very unlucky, it't won't be 3-4 weeks but about 10-11 days, in practice. That's how long it takes standard Amazon shipments from the US to get here.

It took a long time but my copy finally came in. Wow - an impressive package, an absolute steal at $59.99. Highly recommended!!! I did not know this is a 2007 release!

Holy heck. I just got an email....Amazon has just shipped me my three copies at $26 each. ETA 4 December 2007.

Philip, did you cancel your order? What are you going to do with the second copy?

Dennis,

That's a steal. You effectively have one for free and two more at a ridiculously low price.

At today's exchange rate that's about 18 Euros for the set.

Got mine a couple of days ago. Same thing: Amazon had said estimated shipping date April, but then got an email last week that it was shipped.

Re: Beethoven boxed set - 60 CDs - for Euro 39

By coincidence, my gift re-shipments all arrived at the giftees today.

Cees,

Do you have a listing of the performers vs. works in the Brilliant Classics set? Does it really have the Guarnari Quartet playing all the quartets and Alfred Brendel playing all the piano sonatas? The on-line vendors don't go into that much detail.

Re: Beethoven boxed set - 60 CDs - for Euro 39

Dennis,

All I can easily paste here is in post #77.

Later I will have entered all data in my PC, but that will take some time, because it's a big set and I'm currently immobilized by my contractor who's working on my new HT again.
(A carpenter suddenly showed up after having been ill for two weeks, starting to spread fine dust in the air again, so once more I had to cover up all sensitive equipment and media. I didn't even unpack the new Ford at Fox set!)

After my two weeks holiday vacation abroad, I'll start working on my DB again. That will be next year!

Sorry for not being of more help!


Cees

They're back!

Well I see that the US Amazon site has this set back, but at a much higher price than before. $52. I guess that still won't break the bank.
