please post details about booklets, remastered/old CDs etc. when you have it! does it mean that there will be no GT boxset? I was looking forward to buy it…

There are no booklets, prize is very low so we cannot really expect much beside improved audio quality of the older album (especially the first two of Per Gessle).
GT boxset was only a rumour as it seems now.

Well, I ordered the boxsets from Marie and Per on amazon.de a few days ago. There was written that they should be released on the 17th of August. But now there is stated on the site that the boxsets are not available and that it’s unknown when they will be released.
I’m still hoping that I have bought the last boxsets which amazon.de had in stock, but I feel that I’m wrong. I guess they will cancel my order because they can’t deliver it for some reason.
Nevertheless, in this case, I will buy the boxsets elsewhere, I’m dying to see them and listen to them! I only have “Den Ständiga Resan” from Marie, so for me it’s a really good offer!

bengans.se shipping costs are too much 16,39€ and the boxes 17,97€! cdon.eu shipping is 4,95€ and the boxes are 17,95€. Amazon.de can not deliver… at the moment, it’s also like the release of Christoffers Album it was approx 3 weeks later…

Hey the_rain, thank you for the hint with cdon.eu! I’ve never heard of this site before, but it’s really good and quite cheap! I’ve ordered the CDs now there!
Btw, the customer service there is amazing, I had a question and wrote them and they replied in a few hours!
If the CDs arrive also that fast…
