At least 35 quid for the remastered CDs is a bargain.

You can see the artwork of the Vinyl Box only, looks lovely too....That is the artwork of a 7" Bootleg, if I am not mistaken....
Box Set up for sale on Recordstore too..

. If you want some merchandising, then do what the Sex Pistols did....t-shirts, keyrings, badges, posters, mugs etc.
wait another few years....it'll be re-released again, again and again...and in another few years time later it'll be re-released again and suddenly this box set will suddenly become "meaningless" and cheap as chips.
Mr Marr, simply remastering a few of your Smiths songs will do nothing for the majority of us. If you want some merchandising, then do what the Sex Pistols did....t-shirts, keyrings, badges, posters, mugs etc.
You mean more unreleased tracks being leaked? Please elaborate, sounds great!!And now that its official the box will contain no unreleased tracks, I expect a FLOOD of them to be showing up in all the usual places.
HMV has it for £223. Their shipping fee to Europe is £ 2.50 by regular air mail while at Rhino you have no other option apart from the courier service. I wonder how HMV can only charge so little for such a heavy (if not very heavy) product. And than get it in what conditions.....

Last year i bought the Joy Division Deluxe Boxset from Rhino. It was a must have, because it belongs to my collection. But the boxset was very boring und in poor quality. Only a little piece of paper, a bad plastic artwork, two little promo cds... They had delivery problemes and send me first the wrong box. Then they send me two things to complete the box, so you dont have a sealed box. I must paid more shipping costs for that and so on... So, i decided never buy anything from Rhino again! The only good thing is, that the boxset was limited to only 500, so that the value rises a lot. But if i look to the Smiths set, maybe i make an exception and buy it. But for that price?!
