mikelz777 Posted November 6, 2007 Report Posted November 6, 2007 Why wouldn't you just keep the box and enjoy the material you like? I'd prefer to use the money spent on the set to acquire music I would enjoy more and listen to more frequently. Quote
Kyo Posted November 7, 2007 Report Posted November 7, 2007 oh come on...he paid for the set...he is allowed to make digital copies of music he paid for. he did spend money on it. it is absolutely nothing like downloading something he didn't pay for on a bit torrent site. Wrong, it's exactly the same. He paid for the set and he'll get paid for it when he sells it. By buying the set he buys the right to use the music contained therein (including making digital copies for use in the car or whatever). By selling it he voids those rights and every copy he keeps will become an illegal copy. Quote

I'd prefer to use the money spent on the set to acquire music I would enjoy more and listen to more frequently. Mike, I have a number of albums that I did not like at first, but that I have come to enjoy over time. This box set is cheap because it has gone out of print. You may never have another chance to obtain this music. I suggest that you hold off for a long while on selling the box until you have given yourself a better chance to come to appreciate the music.

Actually, that's probably good advice and a good idea. I've experienced the same thing with certain artists. If I still feel the same way a year or two down the road I could consider selling it then. Would I then get chastised by others for selling it for twice or more what I paid for it or is copying the only pet issue involved here? For now, I think I'll just peruse the Definitive, Jazz Factory and Lone Hill catalogs and see what sort of gems I can find in there. Oh, and some JSPs too...

street singer Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 Just a quick heads-up for anyone who has an interest in this set and still has not picked it up at these incredibly low prices. It can now be found for $19.99 (plus $2.98 shipping) from Newbury Comics via Amazon. Here's the link. Doubt you'll be able to find it cheaper than that... Quote
zen archer Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 I just ordered it, too good to pass up for $20 bucks ! Quote
mgraham333 Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 It shows up on Amazon but if you go directly to Newbury Comics it shows it is back ordered (and shows the original list price $125). I placed an order on Amazon...we'll see what happens. Quote

I placed an order on Amazon...we'll see what happens. Where is it back ordered on Newbury Comics website ?...i tell you something about Newbury Comics they are all over the place for pricing . I went into one of their stores and bought a cd for $5.99 and then looked on amazon and the same cd was $39.99 . So i wouldn't be surprised if this goes thru , i think they treat the Amazon marketplace and the online store ( and ebay) and the stores all differently. Quote
T.D. Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 FWIW, the most recent Daedalus Music catalog (see related Storyville thread) offers this box for $60. Which suggests that there are remaindered copies floating around. Quote
street singer Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 Yes, their prices are definitely all over the place. Just this past week, I picked up a copy of Woody Shaw's 'Song of Songs' (OJC) for $9.99 through their EBay store. The same day, they were selling this CD on Amazon closer to $40. I've seen these types of discrepancies numerous times with them. Also, for what it's worth, after purchasing close to 100 CDs from them through EBay within the past 6 months, I've never ordered something that was not in stock. Sooo... Chances are good that they've got a few of those Henderson box sets... Quote
zen archer Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 Just got an email from newbury comics that my box set has shipped today ! Quote
randyhersom Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 I just put in the order, had eMusic burns of most of it, but the props for Black Narcissus pushed me over the edge. Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted February 7, 2008 Report Posted February 7, 2008 8-cd set for $23 with shipping? This is nuts! I just bought an extra set. I can use it as a gift or I can even resell it a couple years from now. This price is ridiculously low. Quote

At this price, how could I not? As a side note - Newbury is selling this same set for $89.99 in their EBay store. Gotta love those guys! Quote
mgraham333 Posted February 8, 2008 Report Posted February 8, 2008 I got my shipping confirmation from NB today. Quote
sidewinder Posted February 8, 2008 Author Report Posted February 8, 2008 Looks like it's back in stock at Dusty ! Quote
Debra Posted February 8, 2008 Report Posted February 8, 2008 There are three sellers on ebay selling it for under $20. Quote

zen archer Posted February 12, 2008 Report Posted February 12, 2008 Just received the box set $22.00 total !!!!...not bad ...it's brand new , i thought they said it had a punchout in bar code ?, there is none . Quote

Joe Christmas Posted February 13, 2008 Report Posted February 13, 2008 Has Dusty Groove been shipping these lately? I just made an order there before stumbling upon this thread. Quote
Noj Posted February 13, 2008 Report Posted February 13, 2008 I don't know about "lately," but they shipped me my copy back in October without a hitch, JC. Quote
