Deal alert / Frank Sinatra: London
This Frank Sinatra London 3CD+DVD box set was issued back in December 2014 and had a price tag of over £45. If you pick this up from Amazon Italy today, you’ll pay less than half that price.
This lovingly packaged 3CD+DVD set comes with a 60-page booklet by producer Ken Barnes, and comes with two art print reproductions of original London concert posters – if you’re quick you can grab for about £20 or €28 – superb deal!
Update: Deal is over, but next best price is Amazon France at £27.
