I can't imagine there's anyone here who doesn't own this set (Simon, maybe?) but there are 2 sets going for less than £8 inc P&P which strikes me as scandalous..

Jared, you are a gentleman, thank you. I have just bought the set, says he blushing. The feckers in Bookend-Morpeth won't send the set to Paddyland so I went for the slightly more expensive dealer, fbabooksandmedia.

Thank you sir.

^^ pleased I could help! did they not offer free P&P to Dublin for that one?

I'm afraid not Jared, never mind, it's a steal at that price and I am delighted to get it.

I have also bought it, just over £10 with postage. I've wanted the contents of this set for quite some time, so many thanks for the heads up!!

As you know by now Seán you will not go wrong wit JEG in JSB....enjoy!

Edit: not so sure if Simon is aware of the genius of John Elliot Gardiner?!?!

^^ I'm really pleased... I'll keep my eyes open for a few more, every once in a while.

He's aware, but he's always reluctant to pay full price! For a while there, if pushed on my favourite conductor in any genre I would have said JEG. I possibly still would.

His B minor mass alone has been on my wish-list for a while but I never got round to ordering it. Now I get the whole box of goodies for the same price, and I really wanted a recording of the Passions and the Christmas Oratorio. In short, I'm altogether chuffed.

Me too, well done Jared.

^^ really pleased I could bring so much happiness to the two of you... I've never seen them that cheap tbh. Sometimes on Amazon, you get someone who just wants to offload quickly, then a second dealer undercuts them... I've seen it happen before, but that was a good one!
