JimmyBOD Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Looks like there is a cheaper pre-order at soundstagedirect... appears to be slated for an April 16th release date and available as an import only. http://www.soundstagedirect.com/public-enemy-25th-anniversary-vinyl-collection-180-gram-vinyl-records.shtml Our friends overseas can order it direct from Universal here: http://store.universal-music.co.uk/restofworld/uvinyl-public-enemy-25th-anniversary-vinyl-collection-vinyl-2013/invt/0600753408780/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyBOD Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Not sure if this is legit but best buy has this presale listed as $79! This box set lists for over $300 and can't be found anywhere else for less than $220. I ordered. Why not, right. This probably is deserving of its own thread. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/25th+Anniversary+Vinyl+Collection+%5BLP%5D+-+VINYL/20809739.p?id=2625609&skuId=20809739&st=public enemy 25th&lp=1&cp=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verb1999 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I see it listed at that Best Buy link at $197.98 now. I wonder if there was a slip up of some sort on the website that's now been corrected. I assume they have to honor your purchase at $79? Good timing & good find! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

surfingelectrode Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 They sound good but the artwork looks pretty shitty on most of the albums if that matters to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yancey47 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I got this on amazon for 79 when it came out. Its got recreations of original inserts and all that. It's awesome especially for that price but not nearly worth 270. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxmartinxx Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I was hoping these would have been re-released individually. I don't quite get the math on boxsets. I mean, I'd pay $20 each for the first four LP's, that's $80. I have to pay $100 for two records I don't want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
