Magma release- 40th anniversary boxset

I have a dilemma, should I get this for $157 (Canadian) from seventh(France) or should I get Theusz Hamtaahk 3CD live set + Live/Hhai + Koenjihyakkei - Hundred Sights of Koenji for about $85 from waysidemusic.cpm (US) ?

There's $130 down the drain. I hope it gets here quick.

Ah, news from Seventh Records! Now, I'm sure this boxset exists AND is official! But "Inédits" isn't included (it's logical on an intellectual and historical point of view). Anyway, there's this "Archiw" CD.

It has been two weeks since the last post, but Seventh Records now has the boxset on its website : http://v2.seventhrecords.com/achat/produit_details.php?id=1052

The price is 105€.

Logan spends too much time posting here, and not enough time earning money to justify purchasing such a  box-set that duplicates so much of what I already own. And I consider vinyl editions to be better collectibles. That said, I'd love to have it (especially for the booklet).

I had my first informations on the site of French magazine Traverses, but nothing is said in Le Chant du Monde. Could Anaon tell us where he found the photos of the boxset, please ? It's a real fresh news isn't it? this picture comes from a friend but the last week in the subway (at Paris), I saw a huge poster about the three gigs of Magma in 2009 and the release of this boxset ;)

Damnit! I won't go to Paris only to see a few posters in the subway!
Don't care, I will go to the Olympia, then the R.I.O. festival (if not cancelled).

I pre-ordered the boxset from Amazon.fr, and it said it would ship to the USA (delivery time about 2 weeks). I hope it does ship properly. 10 Euros sounds about right for international shipping.

Well you can see the nine cover arts beneath the boxset picture and that's what "L'intégrale en 9 albums" means ;)

Well, on the French site of Amazon, the price announced for this boxset is 81 euros (and 41 cents). Wow. It's nearly half the price Target wants to sell it.
For my part, I will focus on their new live record.
