The Beatles 1+ blu-ray confusion for Amazon UK pre-orders

The Beatles / 1+ Deluxe CD+2blu-ray with restored videos and remixed audio

Amazon.co.uk have today sent some customers emails advising that the CD+2xblu-ray deluxe edition listing for The Beatles forthcoming 1+ release may “not have been clear”…

Fans who pre-ordered the top-of-the-range three-disc edition have been surprised to see what was previously a correct listing, change to a CD+2DVD listing. However, the original CD+2DVD listing still exists here for a cheaper price (the DVD version was always a bit cheaper).

When you visit the official Beatles website pre-order page and click on the Amazon link for CD+2blu-ray it takes you to the now changed listing.

The email note Amazon are sending out is along the lines of  ‘…the product description on the title may not have been clear when you placed your order’. This blog believes this is incorrect and that Amazon have inadvertently changed something that was fine all along. There is now NO listing at all for the CD+2blu-ray edition of 1+ and two for the CD+2DVD edition. That can’t be right.

SDE has alerted Amazon to this situation who are in turn checking internally and with Universal Music. Best advice would be to do nothing at the present time. In this writer’s opinion the orders are likely to be correct, and even they are not, you aren’t going to have any issue returning them.

SDE will update when we know more. The Beatles 1 release is due out on Friday.

Latest Update: Amazon have confirmed to SDE that anyone who pre-ordered the CD+2xblu-ray 1+ will get that version. It seems that human error was the issue behind the change of the listing and the emails. Amazon have now reverted the listing back to being CD+2xblu-ray. Unfortunately, is seems that there was no need to cancel any orders, although I know some of you have done this and are now shopping elsewhere.
