Yes - I saw that an hour ago but after recent debaclés decided to keep quiet.

Decimal points can be expensive!

I see that it has disappeared from the listing!

Richard Strauss (35cd) box set available at a very good price from Arkiv. P & P is £ 2-35 on top of the quoted price I believe.

Well discovered! They also have the Rachmaninov edition (28cds) for £18.99. This is a bargain and a a half! I also noticed the Rimsky-Korsakov edition for £14.99!!!

.....and the 36cd Scarlatti sonata set for £23, the Telemann (29cd) for £18, the Clementi sonatas (18cd) for £13, the Frescobaldi (16cd) for £10, the Vivaldi (40cd) for £24, the Tchaikovsky (60cd) for £32, the Boccherini (37cd) for £22 and the Borodin (10cd) for £9 (among others).

There are some Rattle boxes - notably the Bartok and Szymanowski - for £7 each.

Best of all for those (like me) with the odd gap to fill in the Hyperion Romantic Piano Concerto series, these can be had for £7 each.

It seems that p&p remains at £2.35 irrespective of the number of items. Moreover, thse prices (and many others) remain valid until 30 December.

PS These prices should assist the Amazon boycott

My thanks to you, Madame Suggia. I also placed an order, gan schnell, and have just received confirmation that the Klemperer set is now on the way. £2 26! Christmas has, indeed, come early this year. Hope the same applies to you and the other respondents.

Duly ordered. Now awaiting the expected cancellation email from marvelio.

Just received an email to say my set (Klemperer Romantic Symphonies) has been dispatched - £3.52 delivered!

Incidentally, when I ordered this I looked at other Amazon sites for the recent Klemperer boxes - low and behold Marvelio had the Bruckner box for €4.50 (like new) on Amazon.fr. For some reason marketplace delivery charges to the UK from France are only €3.50 so this came to £6.58. The email confirming dispatch arrived this afternoon.

Not a bad haul

Also some Dutilleux! 5 CDs under a tenner I think. The closing date may be a few days earlier - perhaps it depends on the article being purchased. Worth looking at these lists.

Thanks so much for this link...I had never bothered to look at this dealer before and there are not only some amazing bargains, but also some sets that have previously escaped my knowledge. Now, where's that credit card ..?

Think they had the decimal point in the wrong place. Too late now I fear.

As far as I can tell the shipping costs do not appear at least until the credit card details have been put in. I've only got that far to date, so I've not seen any postage charges added in. According to their FAQ if there are more than 7 items then the shipping is £5.50. I really wish web sites wouldn't do this - keep the actual costs hidden until the last possible minute.
Otherwise this site seems to have some very good bargains - though do I really want the collected works of Boccherini, the keyboard sonatas by Clementi etc.? Perhaps the cheapest they'll ever be in one hit though.
