As there seems to be so many price variations, how about this thread seperate from others, to provide up to the minute price details so we may all save a few bucks?

I've taken a chance on this. (I'm in NZ). Works out to be US$20 for me plus free post. Assume its the 2CD.

http://www.cdwow.co.nz/search?q=%22Beach+Boys%22+smile+sessions+boxset&t=all

Amazon Canada seems to have the best boxset price of $123.99.

http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B004RFYEEC/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_2?pf_rd_p=485327511&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B005J29HCQ&pf_rd_m=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB&pf_rd_r=12WSNAYF2CD6S65QS7A1

Any other deals?

Thanks for this info. Are Canadian $ equivalent to U.S.? Will they convert the currency automatically on U.S. orders?

I'm starting to see the Boxset going for 140€+shipping in Europe

http://www.lafeltrinelli.it/products/5099902765822/The_Smile_Sessions_%284cd_%2B_2lp_%2B_2x_7%22_%2B_Book%29/Beach_Boys.html?prkw=smile%20sessions&srch=0&Cerca.x=0&Cerca.y=0&cat1=3&prm=


Still,  Amazon CA + fast shipping = 107€ for me.  Seems the best option for Europeans at this moment.

I see HMV are displaying their normal business acumen by being the only major retailer not to have TSS on their website, idiots.

I'm totally new to this Amazon thing. I ordered my box for $146 from Amazon.com. Can i cancel my order? I live in Canada so i might as well go for their $123 version.
Also, has there been any word about just how limited this box set will be?

Are any American retailers other than Amazon and thebeachboys.com selling these packages yet? 

It's been a week.  Kind of surprised that nothing has surfaced yet on the websites of Best Buy, Walmart, Target, etc.   Capitol must have given Amazon some sort of early exclusive.

I just went to an independent in Chicago and they said I will be able to pre-order from them, but that it isn't in their distributor's system yet. They said to come back about 2 weeks before the release to get one reserved. I am definitely going that route because I want it in my hands on release date. No worries about late shipments or breakages.

Border fees? I ordered in U.S. from Amazon.ca, about $137 altogether I think, but that could be a deal-breaker. Anyone know anything about this potential roadblock?

How did you get your for $146? When I pre-ordered it cost me $173.74. I also had to do standard shipping which means I'll probably get it about a week after 90% of this board gets theirs.  Angry

That was (briefly) the US amazon.com price before it went up to what it is now. It was originally $110. I got it for that price and it jumped to $146 less than an hour later.  Shocked

That $110 deal was crazy. Almost as though they put the box set on at cost then realised their mistake and added a profit margin then handling/ delivery etc a short time later. Same happened with the 2CD and 2LP.

I thought the set would be well over $200 - I jumped on that $110 deal fast....because I knew it wouldn't last long.

Either way, I'd still pay $170 for it....but I'm glad I saved $60!

According to rumblings at the Hoffman board, the $110 was a wholesale price and not the actual retail. Then again, thats  the Hoffman. Wouldn't put absolute stock in it....

It's on Amazon Germany finally, at the price of 130.99 Euros, that's $185.36 or 114.54 GBP. Slightly more than in the U.S. and slightly less than in the UK.

Note the release date October 28th:

My regular retailer offers pre-order as of today. That is the good news.

It costs € 182.99. That is the bad news
