bdinan Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I think at $499.99, I may bite on one of these... still a little too rich for my bones. If there was more actual new music instead of remasters and demos, maybe a bit more interest. I don't think people are interested in a few GNR trinkets for a grand. Call me crazy, I think a Chinese era box set with the rerecorded appetite, unheard demos, unreleased songs, stuff no one has heard before - that would drum up more interest than hearing appetite for the billionth time. We've already heard everything in this box. Just in varying degrees of lower quality. If you really want a cash grab, throw out some stuff people haven't heard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussTCB Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 I ordered my set on 11/23. The company shipped it but because Candadian post is so backed up, it hasn't moved at all. What a bummer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it seems they are yet to receive the items from the store? My tracking info shows the seller has created a shipping sticker, but Canada Post says there will be further updates once they receive the items.

Here's how I understand it: The company has the packages ready to go but they have to be picked up by Canada Post. Canada Post is so backed up that they just haven't gotten to it yet. I'm crossing my fingers and hoping that once all the packages are actually picked up that they'll move quickly to get here. Even when they start moving, I'll still have to wait for them to sit in limbo for a while at US Customs which sucks. I knew that last part going into this but I really wished I'd known about the first part prior to dropping almost $700 :/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom-Ass Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) The super deluxe is on amazon now for $93 bucks. I have been waiting for it to drop below $100 and now that it has, I still don't even know if it is worth it. https://www.amazon.com/Appetite-Destruction-Super-Deluxe-Roses/dp/B07CPDVQYW/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?s=dmusic&ie=UTF8&qid=1544463484&sr=8-1-fkmr1&keywords=appetite+super+deluxe+4 Edited December 10, 2018 by Tom-Ass 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lio Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Hm, still a lot more expensive in Europe, it seems, around 130 EUR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people disagree with me on that one. It would be one thing if it was a better collection.. It is mostly just redundant versions of the same songs. There are some cool versions of "Move To The City" but most of those demos are only worth a listen or too and the better stuff I already have. All that said and I am still on the fence.

However the only thibg that interested me, is just downloading from itunes the appetite remaster and the sound city recordings and that's it. The music video would probably be on youtube if you wanted to download. Just depends whether you think its worth it. The small posters and shit mean little to me.....if your unsure wait till after xmas it may go down further. I think 60-70 is reasonable price.

Powerage5 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I bit on the Super Deluxe finally - I can justify that price. $93, with a 10% off coupon, and free shipping since I have Amazon Prime. Came to $90 after tax, that's fine for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFD in 5.1 is something I've always wanted, and that's something I'd happily be dropped $30-40 on if it were a standalone release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine says this still: Description Electronic information submitted by shipper Additional Information The shipper has created a shipping label for this item and has sent us electronic information. If no additional updates are showing in Track, it means we have not yet received the item. We will start tracking the item once we receive it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was 3, 7" records that I don't care about lol. One by Kurt Cobain, one by Rush and one by Abba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
