There was a thread on this not too long ago, but it seems to have fallen to an older page.
There's also an "unboxing" video from the band's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pinkfloyd/v...3872539037308/

I'm down for a copy. Too much a PF nut to pass. But yeah, that's an EXTREMELY expensive price and I can't fault anyone who is taking a pass as a result.

I'd really love to get this but I'm still catching up on Crimson and that comes first for me.
Found it impossible to resist. Ordered, from the cheapest source I could find (370GBP incl. P&P... ouch !)

Tempting,but too much money for too much stuff i can't use;i.e. 7" lp's.It'll be the 2cd iteration for me.

No kidding. $570 on Amazon. Ouch. Wonder what kind of audio quality were talking for the live stuff. Would have liked to see the entire '72 Brighton show get released.
I got mine from Burning Shed...it was less than $500 including shipping. I think Amazon.co.uk was also pretty reasonable (relatively speaking of course).
I'm going for a couple of the indie discs. This is just too much for the set.

"MARKLAR!"
Well, if they want to sell loads of this material, they're going to have sell these things separately, because not enough people will be ready to fork out +/- 500.00 whatever for the boxsets...
There is potential to sell hundreds of thousands of each of these CDs/DVDs separately, so they'd be pretty stupid not to do it the following year.
Just a matter of patience, really!!!
my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicts to complete nutcases.
Well...seeing as they already announced that all the sets, save for one bonus set that will be exclusive to the box, will be released individually in 2017, I'd say it's not really THAT much of a matter of patience. That was the official plan from the get-go.

Not tempting at all, & I'm a Floyd fanatic from the 1st moment I heard UMMAGUMMA. More important things in my life: family, home, health, other pursuits. You get the idea. But I heard some things on that Facebook video that I've never heard before, & I thought I heard it all. One that comes to mind is the ending of "Echoes" that comes at the end of the video. Maybe I'll check out the individual releases next year. Maybe Roger will release the new album he's spoken about for a few years now...
I've got a bike you can ride it if you like
Just noticed Burning Shed's announcement that this box now includes a 'free' Live At Pompeii CD. So that's another little bonus, since the only audio version that I know of is a poor-sounding Japanese boot.
Still can't justify the price on this one though! Probably grab the 2-CD set just to see how some of it sounds...

I got my shipping notice from Burning Shed today. Assuming it stays on schedule (which it almost definitely will), I'd better clear some time on my calendar early next week...

Live from YouTube Space London, this exclusive event will include an unboxing of The Early Years 1965-1972 boxset, screening of exclusive remastered footage and a chat with Nick Mason.
"Henry Cow always wanted to push itself, so sometimes we would write music that we couldn't actually play – I found that very encouraging." - Lindsay Cooper, 1998
"I have nothing to do with Endless River. Phew! This is not rocket science people, get a grip." - Roger Waters, 2014
"I'm a collector. And I've always just seemed to collect personalities." - David Bowie, 1973
The "Crate" arrived this morning! I had to stay home to sign for it......was told to be home between 9:15 - 9:45AM.......It arrived at 9:20.....
This thing is Huge! Gonna take a while to absorb it.
Yes, the extra disc from Burning Shed was laying on top of the inner box.
The Ice Cream Lady Wet her drawers........To see you in the Passion Playyyy eeee - I. Anderson

Question- do amazon buyers get the extra disc? Or just Burning Shed
Just tried to install into itunes.......It isn't in the media database yet......any of the disc's.......and I'm too lazy to type in all 11 CD's.

Huge Pink Floyd fan atic
watching that unboxing with Andy and Nick and now I definitely need to have this box somehow
Why is it whenever someone mentions an artist that was clearly progressive (yet not the Symph weenie definition of Prog) do certain people feel compelled to snort "thats not Prog" like a whiny 5th grader?
I'll wait for the separate chapters next year (this could mean 2018), so I can be a bit more choosy about what I buy.
And maybe if you do, you'll be able to get the ones edited from Waters' presence , since you hate him so much
Actually, this opening of the box turned me off... There at least 50% of "junk" I don't need (the singles, memorabilia and the BR)
