I just tried it today.  They said that the box set was a "limited
edition" (?!?) and that "they probably wouldn't be getting any more."
TANSTAAFL. :-(

Oh, and for the person who is collecting prices, here is one more:

Vintage Vinyl (Fords, NJ), $189 + 7% NJ sales tax.  The last time I
was there, they had both the CD and LP sets in stock.

Has anyone tried The Turntable in Illinois - (708) 519-9090?

I live in Canada and don't want to call....
they were they only store I could find in the known world with the
Sugarcubes' box set...you think you guys are getting ripped off!
I paid $63 for 6 cd SINGLES - there were 2 songs I hadnt' heard!
Oh well, I love the cubes - anyway, see how much Turntable is asking
for TWW. I am interested to hear how they compare.
