Mine's skipping a lot on certain songs (namely Porcelina) so I have to buy a new copy. $35.99 (CDN) at my local music store. Stupid small town...

I got it for 18.99 CDN a few years ago. It's the holland edition and comes in a regular 2cd jewel case, not the huge one.

Did they smash the two booklets into one?

i saw it used at a thrift store once. it was like new, no scratches on the cd, and it still had both booklets. they were selling it for 2 dollars.

My first copy of MCIS was on casette and I played Dawn to Dusk so much the tape broke :(
My dad rigged the tape for me back together and I played it out again, finally he went and bought me the CD's :)

Originally I think it cost me 19.00 but I had to get another copy last year so I purchased it off ebay for 1 penny. I think with s&h it was something like 3.01. I was surprised I got it so cheap, plus it's in great condition.

I think mine was under $25 Canadian back in 96 and then I bought a used copy last year for someone for around $15 I think.

I was given a discount check (on a music store) for my birthday and I used it in MCIS, since it was too expensive for me to buy in my own. Oh, and yes, fugly european editon. I endend up selling it for cheap to a friend of mine when I bought another one wich had disc paints swapped, and got another (usa editon) in a trade with a nice person from the o-board. Later I got an unused 3lp (not numbered) wich oddly in my whole vinyl collection is the only I've never played.

i used a sam goody's giftcard to buy mine. it was my first pumpkins album ever...it launched a musical revolution inside my mind.

it was cool. it was because of the pumpkins, pretty much, that I decided to pick up the guitar.

Oh yeah, the sticker said $24.99. and it was at sam goody's.

My Mom and my Grandma both bought me that cd, so I decided to keep one in the wrapper with the price on it from Best Buy ($19.99).

My first version got scratched because it was the only cd I listened to while my aunt drove me and my cousin to Boston...20 hour ride there, 25 hour ride back.

I ended up opening the cd about 2 or 3 years ago. :(

I bought it for something around $20 at Best Buy, but I've seen it get up to $32 at various locations. I've only had for a few years, but it does seem like a fucking long time ago. I wish that the music could be that new again. There was never a time in my life that music seemed so endless and awesome. It took me months to really get into the album and I loved every second. God damn.
