Dean Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 I'm very surprised at the reaction to this on here. I was genuinely scunnered that they were charging £850 for this, but thought they'd have sold 10,000 copies no bother. Going to by what I've been reading, they'll have a hard time selling them. Hopefully that means we'll see them significantly drop in price in 6 months 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Dean Posted May 4, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted May 4, 2018 "Axl, we've got the guys back together. We've got the 3rd highest grossing tour of all time, do you think we should hit the studio and release some new music?" "Naa fuck that. If you can squeeze past Paul Tobias in the vault, there's a track back there from 1983, release that along with Appetite and charge those cunts £900 for it." 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cpick11 Posted May 4, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted May 4, 2018 Obviously I was hoping this would be cheaper, but I will still buy it. The way I have to look at is that I have loved this band for 30-years and they have given thousands of hours of joy and entertainment. For that I paid $20 or so for each CD and a few hundred at each of the 10 shows I have be to. For me that is a great price so now I may be getting gouged but I have definitely gotten more from GNR they have gotten from me financially. I had cancer at 25 years old (37 now) and everyday in the chemo chair I would pop-in my head phones with my family by my side and listen to GNR to try and take me away from what I was going through. GNR owes me nothing and I am happy to have the chance to buy something like this! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNRfanMILO Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Does anyone know the size of the 'Locked N' Loaded' cabinet? Must be huge to fit all those things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNRfanJen Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 $30 for all the music, only the music on iTunes. Yep, that's calling my name 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swedish Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 I agree that the $999 price tag is steep but the $179 one is in my opinion fairly reasonably priced! As for the content on the discs, while I think it's a shame that Cornchucker and OIM isn't on there I get why they did it. I also wish that the Arkeen songs like Crash Diet and Just Another Sunday should be included on the box set but I totally get why they aren't, they aren't GN'R songs and they have been having lots of problems with the Arkeen estate recently. Why is nobody talking about the book btw, I'd pay $99 just for that! Overall I'm happy with the box set, would've liked it even more if they put a AFD Tour show (an uncirculated one) on the BluRay but that's just icing on the cake!

Draguns Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Just as a comparison, U2 will release the 30th anniversary box set of the Joshua Tree. Super Deluxe set is priced at $170.

Tom-Ass Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 I'll buy the $170 version.. Wish I could just buy the 4 CDs and Blu Ray without all the swag though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl's Agony Aunt Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 2 hours ago, allwaystired said: I bet he's single...... Might try telling my dad that he's not a 'proper adult' yet because he hasn't shelled out $1000 for some music, badges and temporary tattoos. I imagine the response won't be warm! I agree he's gone overboard. If he's been a fan 25 years ago he should remember Guns started as a people's band, with Axl boasting of his 'integrity'. Times change, and the music industry certainly has. Records don't sell much, so this is probably the only way they can make money selling records; alongside touring for high prices. I don't hold Axl to his youthful rebelliousness, because we all change, and he's been pissed off about people releasing his material before its ready; in his view and most musicians, stealing their creativity and livelihoods. As I wrote in a recent poem: dream thieves without care, also take the nightmare! https://fmpoetry.wordpress.com/2018/04/27/mirror-poem-about-human-society-madness-reality-increasing-value-of-unconscious-inner-brain-sanity/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris 55 Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Looking at the FB comments on the $1k set, I've noticed the way that some people (who aren't going to buy it anyway), are justifying the price are saying "An I-Phone is $1k and you throw that away after a year". It's a weird comparison for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
