    Of course Gene Simmons $2,000 for a box set. Unreal.

    Just an update to this - I sold the turntable. So all said and done I got the Big Box for under $300.

    I would agree, presuming you're talking about a single album being represented by said box set.

    If I was able to purchase a copy of the Classic Records Zeppelin 45rpm Clarity Vinyl Road Case tomorrow for $1,000, I'd write the cheque today.

    Music is worth what anyone is willing to pay for it.

    Well played :righton: Do I take it the Locked N Loaded set measures up to expectations, especially given the price?

    This broke ass divorced dad is pleased to be listening to It’s So Easy, Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door and Whole Lotta Rosie from disc two, AKA, Live at the Marquee. Hat tip to the New Jersey Inter-Library Loan System. Damn, the band was hitting on all cylinders.

    I'll spend that for Everything Is Broken: The Complete Studio And Concert Recordings Of Bob Dylan.

    Yeah, absolutely. Definitely not worth 1K, at least to me, but more than happy to have it for what I paid for it.

    Got the 2 CD set from Target. For me, the best thing on the 2nd CD is Shadow of Your Love. I had never heard it before and think it's awesome. Been watching the Super Deluxe and I do want that, too. Got down to $86 on Amazon in December, but at the exact same time it was stair stepping down, so was the Beatles White Album deluxe box set, down from $130 to $95, so go that instead. Now I'm watching, hoping the GnR box set will drop again at some point. I did also pick up the 2LP vinyl. They did a great job with that, pictures, foil slip case, etc...

    Saw that the Locked N Loaded had come down to $600 before Christmas, but I just don't care that much. That's back to $999 on Amazon. I agree, for that much money, Slash and Axl should hand deliver it and have a fist fight in your living room! That was classic!

    So now that we've had this release around for a minute; are you still enjoying this remaster? Any changed opinions?

    Reference the LPs; I still wish they would've included the 3 Lies tracks & Shadow Of Your Love on side 4. But at least I got those on the 2 CD set from Target.

    Still love the remaster, likewise the extra material. The 5.1 still impresses. Zero regrets on buying the SDE and I plan on being in on day 1 if UYI gets the SDE treatment.

    I received the set as a b-day gift in December from my brother. Still dig it. I wish all remasters were done this well. The extras were all new to me and I really enjoy them, most of the time unreleased stuff is a one and done for me but I go back those discs quite a bit. The 5.1 is my most played part of the set. I have probably listened to it more than any other album since December. Now bring on the Illusion sets.

    Is it true that the original album tracks are only 16-bit across all three versions on the USB cross that comes with the big box?

    I just paid $75 plus $6 shipping for the super deluxe cd/blu ray set from someone on the forum. I'm really looking forward to the demos and also the 5.1 mix! For that great price it seemed justified.

    Just had a quick check on the prices. UK store wants £90 and the US $119. One of the few times were the UK store simply doesn't swap dollar for pounds.

    If it drops to £60/70 I might bite the bullet.

    At $499 I kind of want this, even though it is still stupid, LOL. Wonder if it will drop even further...

    Screw it. I’ve wanted this stupid thing since day 1. It has a “value” to me I can’t quite put into justification terms, even at $499.

    That said, if it drops further, it drops further.

    I’ll be sad if I miss out. *clicks buy button

    It’s a little bit cheaper on Music Vaultz, plus you can get a hockey jersey or jacket. Use code VAULTZVIP for 15% off and it comes out to less than $499 USD.
