Box Sets on Sale at Amazon France: Yo-Yo Ma and The Beatles
Amazon.fr is having their spring sale. They’ve got a few big box sets on sale, sets which are out of print in the US.
Yo-Yo Ma: 30 Years Outside The Box for 300 euros. This set listed at 552 euros, and is on sale at 46% off. It’s out of print in the US, and shipping to the US is not expensive; in addition, Amazon takes off the 19.6% VAT.
The Beatles stereo set, for 130 euros, and The Beatles mono set, for 110 euros. The stereo set is out of print in the US, and the mono set is much more expensive.
Personally, I don’t care for Yo-Yo Ma that much to want to buy his set, but I may go for the Beatles’ stereo set.

Kirk, I don’t see how the Beetles stereo set is out of print. Amazon.com lists it available at $180 (nearly the same price as the Amazon.fr price of $175.00 -dollar converted)
Yea, that’s odd, because when I go to Amazon.com with the same ASIN number, it’s out of print. But they have a different ASIN number for one that is available. And on Amazon FR, they have a second stereo set at over 400 euros.
