Will you buy The Smiths Complete Boxset?
Not at that ridiculously extortionate price.
35 quid for all the albums remastered in Mini LP sleeves is hardly extortionate.
The Deluxe/Collector's Complete Boxset in all 3 formats is £250. It's the vinyl Singles set that is £35, and this CD set -

...which I struggle to see the point of when I've got it all already.
I'm well aware of what format costs what cheers, you said you weren't going to buy it because the price is extortionate and didn't specify which version you were referring to. The poll is about all the formats.
If you've already got Marr's new remasters on CD, good for you, it still doesn't make 35 quid for 8 discs in Mini-LP sleeves an extortionate cost. Far from it, actually.
I never said that £35 was extortionate. I just forgot to explicitly refer to the Deluxe version in my post, which I thought would have been obvious since that's the most expensive one. God, what's wrong with you, do you enjoy arguing with people?
No, just enjoy pointing out ridiculous posts. Rhino put together a tier-level pricing for the set, for all levels of fan and all sizes of wallet, you complain about the extortionate price of one, ignore the very reasonable price of the other, say you don't want the cheaper option and then say you already have it all anyway and aren't interested.
I voted "undecided". Are the remasters really that different? Most remasters today just increase the loudness and nothing else.
