This title was never released on SACD in the US. So here's your chance....

    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    I have not directly through their site BlueFox, but I have bought some CD's through ebay from "Blowitouttahere". No problems whatsoever.....

    I have now purchased Nat King Cole's "Welcome to the club" hybrid SACD from Audio Fidelity

    The Japanese Miles Davis "Workin'" SHM-SACD

    and said "Shangri-La" SACD from them!

    I've had the SACD for some time, I don't remember where I got it. Blowitouttahere is a reputable seller. I've bought a number of things from them.

    Now, who has Shangri-La on vinyl?

    Great price! Bought my copy from a seller in Japan a few years ago. Pretty sure I paid close to $30 for it. It is very well recorded like all of the DS/Knopfler releases.

    They did the same thing to me. When I got the CD I immediately went online and discovered they were temporarily out of stock of the SACD's. That's why they sent the CD. I copied and saved all my transaction info and emailed them twice about the mistake, but they won't respond to my emails. I'm done with them. Buying from them on Ebay would be safer as you have recourse.
