I paid 87$ for it... it's pretty expensive, but well worth it if you're a fan of the genre. And the extras... oh the extras!!! -------------------- Oh my god, space aliens! Don't eat me. I have a wife and kids. Eat them!

That's a helluva boxset! I have "The Good, The Bad & The Ugly". I love it. Still have to buy the other two, though.  -------------------- "Forty-five moments of perfection translated through a cautionary escape into the perils of the mundane, the inherent entropy in ultimate order, and the potential threats of eternal, unchecked apathy in civilization; all cloaked in musical expression so thoughtful, creative and forward thinking that almost a quarter-century later, few can even comprehend it, much less match it."
