Ian Dewhirst Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Hi All, Came into work today and they've launched a box set initiative with some excellent titles at some unbelievable prices, so I thought I'd give people the nod. There's lots of titles there so pretty much something for everyone, but these in particular stuck out:- Philadelphia International 40th Anniversary 10 x CD Box Set £19.99 Tabu Records 6 x CD/1 x DVD Box Set £29.99 Traxbox: Trax Records 16 x CD Box Set: First 75 12” Singles A&Bs £29.99 Philly Re-Grooved Vols 1,2 & 3: Special 8 x 12" Vinyl Edition £34.99 Limited stocks on all the above, so the early bird catches the worm etc, etc....

Ian Dewhirst Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 Personally I think they're crazy 'cos that Philadelphia International 40th Anniversary Box Set should be £50 minimum. I think it's 'cos we're running down the stock as PIR is now controlled by Sony and we're probably into what they call the 'sell-off' period. So, yep. The bargain of the century without a doubt. It's by far the most successful of all the Harmless Box Sets with incredible sales over the last 3 years. Anyone getting this for £20 can't lose! Happy New Year Soul Sourcers! And a special Happy New Year to Mike and the Moderators (sounds like a record on UK Oriole), without whom such instant bargains would be much more difficult to find! Soul Source is the most valuable resource on the internet for stuff like this, so credit where credit is due! Ian D 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Dynamite choices. Also the PIR Box Set additionally has Soul Source member Philly Dave's definitive PIR discography within the booklet, so when you chuck that in as well it's pretty irresistible.

The Yank Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Question for you- I was thinking of getting the Philly Int'l set. When I clicked on the link , I went to a shipping info page which listed all European countries and it said- not available in other countries. Then I clicked on the shipping info button and it went to another page that said shipping is avaliable in the U.S.. I'm confused ......... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

These things happen in the background so I'm not always aware of what's going on elsewhere in the office. If Ben hadn't have mentioned that the PIR Box Set was selling loads I wouldn't have even registered that there was a promotion going on. When he mentioned the price I fainted in disbelief. Maybe the site is crashing due to demand? Ian D 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Soulfinger Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I've been listening to the Philly Box for the last three days. Bloody marvelous! I'm very impressed with the judgement shown on the choice of original single mix or album mix. Singles stuck to pretty faithfully except for the ones you'd want the long version on. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
