how much did MCIS originally retail for when it was first released.
Now I see cd retailers like spec's selling it off for 15, 13 dollars...
no they're not used. Wasn't it around 25 dollars? wasn't able to appreciate them in their hey days was too young, so i dont know. I know this is a boring thread, just curious...

I'm pretty sure I got it for $24.99 at Kmart in the summer of 1997.

I have a cardboard promotional cd stand from whem MCIS first came out which has it at $(AUS)34.95. It has the previous three releases as well, with the banner: "Changing the face of rock in the 90s".

I bought mine for a £5! The fat case version as well (which you generally don't get in England).

I don't know exactly how much i paid. I'm sure it was on sale but let's just say that at the time of it's release i spent a small fortune following the Pumkins.

I bought at least three copies on cd plus a double casette. i went to two concerts.(four tickets total)any posters and magazines with Pumpkins articles and of course all the inported versions of the single's because they had the extra tracks on them. then the TAFH box set.

Thats like a couple hundred bucks at least.
