I put an order for two CDs in on December 4th (NEAR DARK on BSX and Intrada's now OOP NIGHT CROSSING) and they both arrived today. I don't doubt I'll be putting another, larger order in in the next couple of days.

One assumes this is only a deal for folks in Europe. If one ordered the JURASSIC PARK COLLECTION to the U.S., the exchange rate I calculate on your 74.95 Euro pricetag equates to approximately $80 U.S. This item over at LaLaLand is $59.99 U.S., with very minimal shipping within the U.S.
In Canada, for example, your price equates to $105.00 CDN, whereas ordering it from LaLaLand to Canada would be $79.00 + shipping.
I looked at another title, WATERSHIP DOWN, and its base price is already $7.00 more than any other site with the conversion.
So, although you are offering free shipping, your markup seems enormous. Or am I missing something?
Honestly not trying to be prickly, just pointing out that unless I'm missing something this is not at all a deal for Canadian or American customers.

Unfortunately it can't be any other way, as Chris has to pay a huge amount of taxes for every release (19% including shipping!). Same as with everybody else who is not living in the US.
So yes, it's probably only a bargain if you're living in Europe ...
But for us it's an excellent occasion, so thanks a lot Chris for doing this every single year!

Yes! You are missing everything for US customers. The chance to get Italian and Euro scores cheaper than in US and no shipping cost-no matter ow large the order. That's a great deal for those of us who love Italian scores.
Just buy Watership Down from UK or wait till it comes to SAE. I bought mine from the label Vocalian for $15 pounds inc shipping to US.

Thanks, everyone, for setting me straight. I also hadn't thought to check the Quartet titles I'm in need of. All the best.

In addition, of course, shipments from Germany to the UK aren't hit by customs charges, which can make bulk orders from Intrada, Varese etc prohibitively expensive.

After the Brexit, they will again soon...
