Beatles for sale? Well ...


Just saw that Amazon (in the U.S.) is no longer taking pre-orders for The Beatles mono box set. Guess it really was a limited edition after all.

How long to we see one up for auction on eBay with a starting bid of a million dollars or something like that?
The Beatles for sale, indeed!

The stereo box may not be a limited edition. The discs are also being released individually. The mono discs are only available in the box set. I have two on order and plan to buy the stereo discs one at a time.
the mono boxes were allocated. some retailers such as amazon have already sold through their allocation. street date at retail may be the last day they will be affordable.
I am locked in for my set, but I think EMI/Apple is insane to have a limited offering of the mono pressings. Surely, they are just testing the waters.
I ordered the stereo box set on amazon as well as the white album which is separate from the stereo box set--very good price on amazon 30% off--hope it sounds really good or it goes back to them !!
Thanks for posting this. It got got me off my behind and got a preorder in. Now, we'll see if I actually get it as I have been burned on pre orders before.
