I'm thinking of buying the singles boxset. I was wondering how many sets were released and how rare are they?

I think they are still making them. But I have to warn you, I've heard the pressings for the singles are terrible.

Really? Is that only a handful or is it all of them?!

Well, ive seen reviews on ebay and amazon. They said that even the new ones had lots of scratches and the pressing is just crap. Check it out here: http://www.amazon.com/The-Singles-1999-2006-Vinyl/dp/B000MTEZPU

 

UPDATE: Turns out, it actually DEPENDS on which one u get. Its really a 50/50 chance if u get a good or bad one. Just be careful as the one u get might not have been cared when distributed.

So I actually bought one and it turned out to be perfect except for the Talk vinyl. Since it was unplayed, the holes were not punched through all the way and the Talk vinyl skipped a lot. This can easily be fixed by placing a coin on your tone arm or adjusting your counter weight, this may damage the vinyl or needle though! Just thought I'd post this since it is the 9th year since this was released :D

I am looking for someone who has The Scientist on vinyl and would be willing to take a short video of the vinyl revolving in your record player !

Would anyone be willing to participate ? If yes, please let me know !

I've found the full box (new) in a Charity at £18 two years ago in London (I'm a lucky italian) :heart:

I wish there is a CD box set of them. I like CDs more than vinyls. Also they are cheaper and easy to find.

Hi, thanks for asking but that was for the I Ran Away Project which is already done.

I think the video result was good even without this footage :)
