I just got my import tax bill for my order from Noel’s site. I went for the Uber deluxe boxset. €66.06 🤢🤢 Oh my goodness. I'm so sorry to hear that! I’ll be rethinking what I buy from the official site in future. Exclusives only I think. |

I pre-orderd the box set from my local record store as I knew I could pick it on the release day. I only bought a picture disc and a casstte as they're official store only. But now Brexit built a higher wall for us. What a shame. |

OK I caved in and ordered the cassette version and the picture disc version today. So I'm looking forward to getting those as well. I still want the Japanese version but that will have to wait for a bit longer as I can't and won't get it from CD Japan because I've had problems with that site before. The first time I used it it was fine no problem, but the second time I used it my bank blocked my card as they said it's not a safe site and I had to go and see them to get it unlocked. And, I can't do that now as the branch here has now closed. So I don't want my card blocked again. I'll just have to wait until it pops up on a site which I use that I know is safe and then get it. That’s strange , I’ve never had any problems with CD Japan before and I’ve been ordering from them for years , has anyone got any pics of the Japan set with the postcards? Yeah, it's weird especially as it was fine the first time I ordered from CD Japan and now it makes me wonder how safe some of these foreign websites are. |

I know what you mean with some sites but I think CD Japan are about as safe and reliable as they come in Japan , on a par with HMVJapan as one of the biggest sites over there, plus the care they take with packaging the items when they ship them, there always my first choice for the Japanese releases, unlike Amazon over here who throw them in a box with a piece of loose paper, I’ve had items from them new unsealed sent back from other people, there awful. |

28,000 sales of a Best of for a 54 year old 27 years into his career is pretty good whatever way you slice it.

Well, I've never tried HMV Japan so I don't know what they're like. As for Amazon I've never had any problems with them and they've always packed things up properly in boxes . |

My picture disc arrived today and the cassette version is on its way. The picture disc is pretty cool.
Also, I found a seller on Ebay who's selling the Japanese version so I decided to order it from them as it's better than getting my bank card blocked again. I've also ordered from this seller before so it should be ok. However, I don't expect my CD to arrive for a few weeks but that's ok and I'll wait.
