$60 IS a good price now. It routinely goes for over $100 U.S. No wonder SACD is failing, when you only keep things in print for a year people get discouraged by having to pay some ebay flipper a bunch of money. I was lucky enough to get Violator and Music For the Masses for under $30, I guess I will never have Black Celebration as I NEVER pay over $30 for a CD, there is too much out there I could buy instead. Oh well, maybe I will get lucky and find one in the used shop someday but I doubt it since everyone checks ebay and amazon for the value now...the days of the killer score are coming to a close.

There's a record shop i Oslo (Norway) called Platekompaniet (the record company!), they've been literally dumping Dep.Mode SACDs for about $10 (US) lately. Try search in the upper left corner. You should find Black Cel. etc, look for the ones that says SACD-Hybrid+DVD, or try this link:

Don't know if they send overseas or to other countries. Mail them and ask.

Dammit! They don't sell to foreign countries. Do yourself a favour and buy every single copy they have, you could make a good profit on Ebay. Would you consider buying me one? I have been spending £30 (British pounds) on SACD lately, I would gladly pay you that price for one!

By the way, I'm new here, sorry to barge in without introducing myself. Email me at veemacdee1971@hotmail.com if you can help, I'm a big Depeche Mode fan.

Thanks Runk, but it was Black celebration that I am desperate for, have already got most of the others. I think the fact that it's impossible to get makes me want it more.

lol spoken like a true fanatic collector.

Of course I've bought a few other SACD titles for the very same 'logical' reason :)

I'm found "BLACK CELEBRATION" at http://www.cdwow.com/CD/DEPECHE-MODE-BLACK-CELEBRATION/dp/pc/2886800

I've tried ordering it from CD WOW. Nothing ever happened. Eventualy they refunded my money.

Everyone - you should be able to find it at www.mute.com their record company.

I do realize that it does not specify SACD but this one is the remaster plus DVD:

http://www.recordstore.co.uk/mutebank/productdetail.jsp?productPK=unittest-m2fjCZulSdGF252gqN3IEb-1

As far as I know, Mute NEVER pressed a CD+DVD remaster package that was *not* SACD capable in the UK. They did press CD+DVD remaster sets without SACD in the United States. (with the crappy cardboard cover) So just make sure the one you order is from the UK. You could write to ask Mute. Years ago when they first came out I ordered mine from cdwow but they did NOT say they were SACD either. We assumed because Mute only pressed the UK CD + DVD remasters as SACD hybrid discs.

There was a lot of confusion on sites because often the DM cd remaster sets were never listed as SACD even though they were. So it's worth the try.

The DM 101 and Playing the Angel discs were also available as SACD but those were not advertised well at all. In fact I just ordered the SACD PTA disc from Mute the other day.

101 is selling in the secondary market for $150+ from Amazon yet you can still get it from Mute which seems absurd.

So yes, try the www.mute.com (UK) store.
