ALICE COOPER: Old-School Box Set Due In June

Price: $260.00

Uh... nay.


wtf

 

[That 70s Guy]

Yeah it looks really nice but not at that price.

 

[METALPRIEST]

What's with the price??? GAHHHHH!! Ready to take him off the nice guy list...



Kidding...wait awhile it will come down in price and I'm sure we can find good deals online if we can hold out a year.

I'd pay that much for a vinyl box, but there's no way in hell, as cool as it looks, that I'd pay for discs just 'cause there's a bunch of extra stuff in it.

Have to pass on that one...too much money for what you are getting.

I would imagine a hard core fan like our legendary "Rtbuck" would consider picking it up as soon as possible.

You know LG, I've been trying to justify the price all day after seeing the post & I just can't justify it yet (I want to see all the songs). I found out the DVD is about 3 hours long. If it was 100 bucks definitely & probably at 160 bucks.
If I win the Lottery...Definitely!!!!!

^^ I Knew you would be wrestling with this one my friend.

I think it's a given that sometime down the road when the price is right you'll pick this one up, and of course a quintessential summation by Sir Bucky would be forthcoming afterward.
