FTD SUN Project-A Boy From Tupelo: The Complete 1953-55 Recordings : Book & 3 CD's

anyone found the cheapest place to order this yet?

i placed a preorder at Elvis.com but it appears to not have worked. I've contacted them about it. With a preorder does anyone know how it works with them, i would have thought I'd get an invoice and it haven't got an invoice. I just wished they'd eamil me back so i know what's happening.

I placed an order with them awhile back and I think the only thing I got was an email that said the item was a preorder. Then for some reason my order was cancelled and then I had to reorder. I wasn't charged twice.

i've not got an email from Elvis.com to say the item is on pre order that's why i was concerned. I've emailed them three times so far no reply back. Pay pal account doesn't show any transaction to them so I'm pretty sure the sale didn't go through. I think I'll have to do the order again. I'm not an insider so no discount for me debtdbruno. There price is good though sent to me from America for $148 Aussie dollars.

If you got a discount cheapest would be at shopelvis.com

I heard it was pulled from sale, dont know why ?

Placed my order two days ago and got an email saying it would be mailed out on August 29th or a little later.

And the money was taken from my bank account, it says all Pre order sales are final so im glad they took my money, this is going to be an all time favorite release and its not even here yet.

Hey! Does anybody already know the track list for this one?

Can't find it and well, don't want to order it before knowing well what I'm gettin, there's a lot of great Elvis stuff comming and I can't get it all so, I need to make choices!

Thanks!

don't think track listing has been released yet........
