How about a free NewOrder boxset? :thumb:

you guys made me feel so longing for this box-set, which I doubt to find here around. With the 5th disc. If I were sure in Amazon or HMV or Opal, but they tell me nothing.
Be patient, due to the network problems, I'll announce them after the move (if it's at the beginning of the week), because many people sent me email they weren't able to send their answer...
Sorry!
Okay...I know this is an old post but...is there now anyone that knows where to get the Rhino 5 DISC set (the bonus disc included). All I can find is the Rhino # 73834
much thanks

Try actually going to the places that carry em but don't normally sell them too much, like bookstores. (Borders, Walden, Barnes & Noble, etc.) I've seen few in them places in the last year or so.

I doubt there are any left... those were limited to 3000 copies...
Never understand the "there is only xxxx copies of this..." The UK version of Retro was around for ages as the 5 disc set,i still see it now and again in Liverpool & Manchester. The Saville soundtrack is another one-limited to 3000,yet there are always 2 or 3 copies on eBay?
Originally posted by Julijana Zitnjak What are you all complaining about, the only way to get it in Croatia would be to order it and pay the full price and the shipping fees (I've had to order stuff from abroad for most of my youth anyway !).
If you had posted this earlier than the date you did, I would have delivered it in person. I spent the weekend around 9th Jan 2003 in Zagreb and brought a copy with me for my Croatian girlfriend who is also a New Order nut.

Because some people buy them to sell them.. (I know, I have 3 Retro limited!! 1 UK and 2 US!)
But I've never seen a US one on EBay... there were a lot more UK limited editions...
How come you have so many retro boxsets ?????? 
Doublecrossing people all over again, maybe??? 
By the way guys, I love old threads like these... and I miss the Wolfmann !!!! :(
Quite simple... I bought a UK one, we got 7 US boxsets, you and I got one and did a contest to give away 5 copies... I sent email to all the winners, and one of them never claimed his prize... hence why I still have it unopened.
However, I forgot totally about it until I moved last may... and I have never thought about selling it on EBay...
lol I've spent the last two days looking for the competition, I didn't spot the date on the first post

Wow... you would think someone who wins something like this would jump on the occasion.
How come I was never informed of this? This boxset should have been drawned for someone else's pleasure, then!
Maybe it could be drawn as a "Grand Prize" for the next competitions when the new single comes out.

It's common knowledge, I've said it many times.
At this point, I just don't want to see this sold on EBay, so if it is part of a special deal someday, it will be between trusted members who doesn't have it and will keep it.
Is there any difference between the UK/US versions. Its exactly the same tracklist isn`t it?
So what is the definitive way to tell if the copy of Retro at your local Borders is a 5-disc one?

The only way to tell is it has a sticker on saying,Limited 5 disc edition featuring 17 min version of 'Eliga'.
The different between the US and UK limited edition is that the CD are a different color... (they are reversed)
Look in the discography if you want to see.
And the US limited edition (5 discs) is rarer than the UK one.
But the music is exactly the same.
reading this i have just remembered i won the international prize but never claimed it! 
do you still have it Nicos?
