I called my local brick and mortar store and they can't seem to get it on order for me, so I guess will go with Amazon or Presto. Also, there is an earlier production (Think 2014) of this opera with Jaho.

If I made trench coats, opera productions over the last few decades would have made me rich.

Just sayin'.

I have it on a pile and can get in to it, don't ask me why.

Oh, I have a lot of good ones on the unwatched pile. Sometimes it is a mood for a particular opera, but in most cases, I think if you were to randomly grab one and start watching, you would not regret it. After all, most of that pile is stuff we bought for a purpose. Often my pile sits while I watch the latest one that I just picked up. But then there is a great comfort in the pile because without it we might get anxiety over not having an unwatched opera to watch.
