New Digisleeve CD Reissues?
Re: New Digisleeve CD Reissues?
FYI I’m in the U.S. and ordered from Amazon UK and received the digisleeve CD’s this past Monday.
Re: New Digisleeve CD Reissues?
Ordered from OS and they arrived last Friday. It's a lottery but I got dinged for import duty this time. However whoever completed the declaration only listed 5 of the 6 CDs so subsequently ended up paying less duty than I would have.
For one hot minute I thought maybe they only sent 5 CDs though.

Re: New Digisleeve CD Reissues?
For Xakrij and anyone else with an order in at Rough Trade US, I wrote them yesterday and they replied, pretty promptly, that they had just come into possession of the CDs and that they'd be shipping them out this coming week. So it sounds like we can look forward to having them in our hands soon.
Good to hear those two traditional outlets worked for MikeyC and Gabby. I've certainly been grateful for Amazon UK in the past. I wish I could use the US OS, but they said they had no way of resetting my password the last time I tried, without creating a whole new account with a new email, so that's a non-starter, until I make another attempt. I've been pretty happy with my UK OS experiences, though.

Re: New Digisleeve CD Reissues?
I am in a similar situation with Rough Trade here in the US. I did receive the e-mail from them on the 3rd that my order was not forgotten and they were working to get my order out to me asap. A week later I decided to write to them again and received this response a few days later:
"Hey Anthony,
Thank you for reaching out, and sincere apologies for the delay in response. We have experienced an increased amount of inquiries recently, and your patience is much appreciated.
It looks like the hold up in sending your order is due to an unexpected delay with our supplier shipping the Pet Shop Boys CDs to our warehouse, therefore we've had to move the shipping date back for your order. Sincere apologies for this inconvenience. It looks like we are expecting those to arrive by the end of next week."
And then this week on Wed the 20th I received the e-mail that my order had been shipped, including the tracking number. Unfortunately, the package is still not in the possession of the USPS and only the label has been created. So, hopefully by early next week my CDs will be moving my way and I'll be able to add them to my collection very soon.
This is the 3rd time I've ordered from Rough Trade that my items have been delayed beyond the release date of the items (2nd time with PSB items). That being said they are very good with their communication about the situation and always have competitive prices, or exclusive pressings, so I will continue to order from them and just know I need to be patient if these shipping delays happen

Re: New Digisleeve CD Reissues?
I just took delivery of the new Oasis albums box set and it looks really nice (from the outside as have yet to open properly). Even if PSB had done this in 2 volumes, I think it would have just made it that extra bit special.
I was never much of an Oasis fan, but went to see them on Sunday and it was pretty epic I have to say. Love our Boys, but the visuals were brilliant and would give what I've seen of the Dreamworld set (via Unity tour mostly) a run for its money.
