Rooster_Ties Posted March 23, 2019 Report Share Posted March 23, 2019 Man, oh man, I do NOT think I can resist. "Seventh Avenue" and "Love Dance" are both big favorites. And I'm not sure, but is this the first ever live version of "Teotihuacan" that's been issued so far? Not a tune title that I remember seeing that much on any of the various live Woody CDs' I have (and I have practically all of them). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.D. Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) I once ordered frequently from importcds, but now avoid them. On one order I was shipped the wrong item, and the return / refund process was an absolutely ridiculous hassle which I decline to risk repeating. Edited March 24, 2019 by T.D.

They have gotten more competitive. I noticed I was buying from them frequently on ebay. Their direct website often has different pricing than their prices on ebay, in both directions. 1 hour ago, T.D. said: I once ordered frequently from importcds, but now avoid them.

jazzbo Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 My experiences have been slightly mixed, enough that I won't use them to save a few dollars only. And the amazon price may be even lower by the time it's released, and I'll get it on release day. Works for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I tend to do is leave my Amazon pre-order in place, and not pre-order from Importcds, and watch the price on Amazon close to the release date and make a decision which way to go.

jlhoots Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 I've ordered often from Import on Amazon & never had a problem (other than that I don't like DHL). Never have had something not show up or the wrong item arrive. I recently did my first order directly from them. The first item shipped immediately. The 2nd item is a preorder. We'll see how it goes.

bertrand Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 Are Bremen and Basel one CD or two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bremen (if that's just the quartet only, and I think it is) is definitely 2cd's ~ 100 minutes total (I've had a burn of that one for 15 years, and it's stunning). I'm pretty sure Basel is 2cd's too (iirc), and much longer than it is on LP (just 1 LP). I don't have it yet, so can't confirm personally. But that's my recall from the links up above. LP is barely 4 tunes, iirc. CD is like 8 tunes (half of them really long), and 2cd's (again, iirc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertrand Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 Ah, so there is no one-CD vs. Two-CD option. It is just the L.P. that is shorter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup unfortanately that is the case. Got the Live in Bremen Lp for my birthday and was so happy with it until I found out I missed half the concert...
