I just order couple of Williams, but missed Close Encounters. Damn.
Is it really sold out or just out of print?

So it seems that CEOTK is sold out now But maybe if you drop e-mail to MV, they could find emergency copy for you?
I won't even hazard a guess, though I suspect I already know the answer.
Instead I'll just comment that The Great Race was more of an impulse purchase for me at a time I was feeling a little flush. I had no burning desire to own that films score, but I'm kind of a sucker for premium packages of 50's-60's-70's catalog. I figure if someone is going to all that trouble and expense, there's got to be a lot of genuine love there.
I was amazed how good a listen that set was. Track one, disc one to the very last on disc three- just sheer aural pleasure all the way through.
While Intrada seems to get most of my business for the basic fact that they stock other labels product, when I look back at substantial favorites I'm kind of surprised just how many BIG releases have been LLL.
And TGR has been one of my all-time favorites.
I hope it does come back in stock in the next week for you guys. Then again, I paid full price and never regretted it once.
Without being able to distinguish between whats oop or temporary oos. I was wondering if Titanic and Wyatt Erp would slide in during the last few days?
This is an amazing offer from LLL and I'm considering another order before it ends. That said my $300+ order made on 10th April still hasn't arrived (I'm hopeful that it will arrive eventually and is just moving slower through the network given current circumstances, fingers crossed...). Are other UK customers having similar delays or have I just been unlucky?

My order was shipped on the 19th from Burbank and has only yesterday reached LA International Airport, which according to Google Maps is a 7 hour walk. So yes, things are definitely moving slower. Customs are also taking quite a bit longer since the start of the pandemic at least here in Germany.
While I can't speak for international customers, I can say this about domestic shipping:
I'm in Northeastern PA. Ordinarily, when I order a new release on a Tuesday, my order is fulfilled, shipped, and in my hands by that Saturday. With this pandemic, here's an example of one order.
Ordered - April 30 Shipped - May 11 Delivered - May 14
Two whole weeks for something that usually took 4.5 days
For those customers who are seeing much longer wait times, all I can do is encourage patience. This appears to be the norm for the time being.
I had this issue at one point also. You have to clear your web browser cache and/or remove everything from your cart, log out, and then log back in again.

Have hope! my order from Lalaland records shipped to France april 10 and I just received it yesterday (46 days!)
Really grateful to LLL for this wonderful offer. Picked up some titles, which I had been meaning to for some time.
Same here. Plus, I took advantage of the opportunity to nab some titles that I thought I *might* like and also dabble outside my normal genres (e.g. nabbed a copy of Bad Girls the day before it sold out).
