My only regret is...
Music Lover: Sad fella from NYC -- October, 25, 2007

...I purchased this from Amazon.com a year ago, and page almost $70 for it. Someone broke into my car, and stole my CD player and CDs...and one was from this set. I paid almost $30 for a used copy of the set, just to replace the stolen CD. ...If only I had known...

Can't believe I found this
Music Lover: Bob Rutherford from Boston, MA USA -- October, 25, 2007

OK, I consider myself a fairly hard-core collector. This title went out-of-print this year, and while "used" copies are all over the place, "new and sealed" copies are almost impossible to find. I confirmed with Oldies.com that these are indeed new, and when I received my two copies (one to open and listen to, the other to save sealed), both were indeed brand-new and sealed. A sales rep said they bought a few hundred of them from Universal before they were discontinued, and it's an extremely popular item with customers. Understandably so. It's worth the price of admission for the Christmas CD alone. Buy one now, you won't regret it.

What a deal!!
Music Lover: Kookie Kelly from Chicago -- February, 15, 2007

This is my favorite boxed oldie set of all time! I have it on cassette and paid big bucks for it several years ago...couldn't believe the price here for the CD's!!
