Great time to pick up that Hank Mobley set for $81.98 delivered before it disappears.(USA) I doubt you'll find a new one cheaper.

Thanks for the heads up, I ordered the Mobley and Crosby even though they're both listed out of stock. I know I tried to order a black box Mosaic at least once from them before and it was out of stock and eventually canceled but it's worth another attempt, especially with the numbered Mobleys getting into the last 50 or so, wouldn't want to miss that one.

I've never ordered a box set from deepdiscount. Do they place the Mosaic Selects in a box or try to stuff them in a cheap bubble envelope?

I hate receiving a Select from outside of Mosaic and it comes all banged up. I got one that way from J&R. Never again with those guys.

I've ordered a couple box sets from deepdiscount (the Tal Farlow and one other, back when they stocked a number of the boxes), and they came through fine. I agree that JR sometimes doesn't pack their shipments well enough.

[colinmce]

Seconded. I've ordered Selects from Deep Discount and they arrived pristinely.

Deepdiscount uses cardboard boxes.

I've never had a problem with any orders from them. I appreciate the heads-up on the Bears. I took the opportunity to order the Louis Prima. That one should be great fun! I'd also recommend the Louis Jordan.

I was looking at that, too. It's so damned expensive, though. That's what stopped me buying the Buddy Johnson box, which I regret now...

Yeah, it's not cheap, but it's kind of rare to find a Bear Family box for any kind of sale price at all. At least, I've seldom found one. You have to love Louis Jordan's juke box music. I do, but for some it's definitely an acquired taste!

The Crosby Mosaic is no longer eligible for the 25% discount. I wonder how many people got in under the wire on that one. Seems odd that they'd dangle this and the Selects and then pull back so quickly.

[Chuck Nessa]

They probably had limited quantities.

Well the Mosaic singles were taken off sale also......I know there ain't no limited quatities of them and it isn't like they were giving them away.

I ordered the Crosby Mosaic and it still hasn't shipped.

I also ordered the Crosby and another beginning of June and neither have shipped. I received an automated email last week, at the 30 day point, where they wrote that they "expect" to receive more sets in from the manufacturer within three weeks. Based on my past experiences with this retailer, they'll have us wait the two months, not make any attempts to fulfill or get more stock, and eventually cancel the orders.

I had a different experience several years ago however. I ordered a set, got the same backorder message, and did receive the set about three weeks later.

I ordered the Crosby and six selects. I received four of them in a timely enough manner. Echoing Jazzbo, I finally got a couple long-out-of-stock titles (that I ordered during the December sale) in early June.

There was something wrong with the original links. I don't remember exactly what (it's over a month ago), but they didn't work properly. I fixed them, and that's all I did.

Just got an email that Der Bingle shipped today. I had pretty much given up hope.

Ordered on June 4th.
Just received an email that they are shipping the Crosby MOSAIC. :rolleyes:

[micha]

I'm also happy to see that I've received a shipping notice for the Crosby. The Mobley set from the same order is still out of stock so I wonder if they're waiting to re-stock that one or just processing it differently in some way.
