    Fremer-Approved (11/11 Music/Sound) double 180 gram lp, $5.62, Amazon Prime. No, that is not a misprint, $5.62, double 180 gram, and that's down $2.00 from when I bought it!

    Piano duet of a Stravinsky piece might not be your normal listening (it's not mine), but man, for the price of a Vente Latte, broaden your damn horizons!

    Frankly, the cover "art" alone is worth the price of admission. Ranks very high on the dorkiness scale, right up there with Asleep At The Wheel Comin' Right At Ya and The Fabulous Thunderbirds Girls Go Wild.

    OOS again. Will check again today. Has been this price before: http://www.superbestaudiofriends.org/index.php?goto/post&id=24090#post-24090

    Mono CD boxset is the same price, which I also highly recommend. Different than the mono vinyl boxset, but the best digital version. Cheapest I've seen is $100ish (new and used), but haven't seen a sale like this for a while.

    https://shop.musicvaultz.com/*/*/THE-BEATLES-IN-MONO-13CD-BOXED-SET/3M2F0000000

    Remember to add Abbey Road and Let It Be stereo CDs separately.

    U.S. Albums boxset is also available for a pretty good price: https://shop.musicvaultz.com/*/*/THE-US-ALBUMS-BOXED-SET-13-CD/3M2E0000000. This is basically comprised of both mono and stereo versions of the U.K. remasters, but in the American album order. I own this and the mono CD set.

    This site also has the Capitol Records v. 1 and 2 releases for $50 each. These are the actual American mixes with the heavy reverb etc. applied. Aka what people here knew the Beatles as. I don't own those yet.

    Re: Beatles in Mono CD set.

    There are a lot of counterfeits out there. Ebay, Amazon Sellers... They are no bargain! If you get a great price be sure it is from a trusted seller, direct from Amazon itself for example.

    (I have never heard of a counterfeit Beatles in Mono LP set, btw.)

    I assume it would not have a warranty, even if this turned out to not be some kind of scam.

    Reading the A-to-Z Guarantee Protection, it looks like one would be covered. I don't know how much of a hassle it would really be though. I have never had to use it.

    Everything makes this seem like a scam to me. But I am considering it. o_O

    Best case it's stolen. Worst case you get a box of poop. That's some pricey poop.
