With regards to the Cinevox 5 Box set, the more limited version (100 transparent vinyls) has been available for purchase on the btf site for a week or more. But that set is even more than the coloured version at €150.
I know it was said that Amazon wouldn't be getting any copies of this, but it seems that Amazon.it have it available for immediate dispatch...at a more reasonable price (€85) as opposed to the £90 (€125) that UK retailers such as Rough Trade were selling it for. I'm not sure whether that would be one of the 100 transparent copies or 400 (or 500?) coloured copies. Personally, I think I'd prefer the less limited coloured version as they represent the label’s five different shades.
I had a pretty successful RSD (which means it was a lot less successful from my bank account's point of view), spending just over £200. I didn't see the Cinevox 5 box, and as someone else mentioned I'm mostly glad I didn't see it as I'd probably have been tempted despite it being so over priced. I also wanted and didn't see Spasmo, but suspect it won't be too hard to find at some point - last year's Morricone RSD release (Good, Bad, Ugly) was fairly easy to get afterwards so I'm sure this one will be.
Soundtrack wise I only picked up Big Bad Wolves and Utopia 2, and I ordered 'Il mio nome è Nessuno' months ago online for half the price it was going for in shops yesterday - although I'm not sure which version I'll receive (like the Cinevox 5 box, there's a more limited transparent version on the BTF site in addition to the RSD limited colour version).
For those who missed Nightsatan and the loops of doom & also the Frank OST; Rise (in Cheltenham) had quite a lot of copies and they didn't really seem to be moving that fast while I was there - I suspect they and other larger UK retailers such as Rough Trade, Banquet, Norman will have copies left over when they put them for sale online.
