Seems pretty pricey. I think you can get it cheaper at https://www.cdjapan.co.jp/

Re: DRIFT Series 1 - New album, Nov 1, 2019
 

yes, that's about $10 cheaper, but i've never used them before.

i've bought from the seller on ebay, so i didn't have issues
from them.

I have ordered from CDJapan. Very good, trustworthy. Been around for a long time.

It shouldnt take much review. It looks like the couple of seconds here and there differences between the EP, the album and the films are actually the same tracks with leading or trailing silence. Of course this needs confirming.

e.g.
Tree And Two Chairs (Film Edit) 13:32 dig
Tree And Two Chairs (Film Edit) (ep5) 13:32
Tree And Two Chairs (ep5 cd) 13:31
Tree And Two Chairs (film) 13:35

This is probably all the same track.

I've used CDJapan multiple times. They're great.

Re: DRIFT Series 1 - New album, Nov 1, 2019
 

That may be true, but there were changes made to some
tracks in the video versions, and the released digital versions,
and the cd ones, that were noted.

So i haven't even started to listen to the discs on the blurays
or cds yets. I only had the digital and youtube versions.

also i'm waiting for the 2xcd japanese sampler version to have
all of them, and THEN i can start comparing them.

If anyone is still interested in getting a copy of the original big box set, it looks like a number of copies are available now on Discogs, including some sealed ones for about $150-200 (down from previous highs of $300+ on eBay). The download code is still good until Nov. 1, 2021.

There are also a few of the numbered/signed copies from the UW shop (limited to 650 copies) for sale there.

I just wanted to make a note that Beat Records reissued the Series 1 Sampler Edition CDs in Japan on June 24, 2022. This was basically a lower-cost reissue to get rid of their excess stock. 2CD for ?1500 (down from ?2750) and 1CD for ?1000 (down from ?2200). They also created new T-shirt bundles to try to drive interest. I assume there are new OBI wraps on these CDs (with the new catalog numbers and prices), but I have been unable to find any pictures of them. (Edit: The contents, including OBI, are the same. They just put a new barcode sticker and hype sticker on the wrapper with the new catalog number and pricing.)

They dubbed it the "Japan Commemorative Edition" to commemorate the return of Underworld to Japan at the (since postponed) July shows.
