Excellent writeup on that Norman Records site.

damn , just when I need to save money 

Need? Certainly not.

Want? Hmmm... 

I get frustrated at stuff like this because as soon as they release a new single or album, this is incomplete...

interested in this. ive listened to the biggies before but i don't own any of their records. this could be a good way to correct that

Thats the crazy completist CD set.

For the vinyl, it looks like there are individual vinyl packs for each album, rather than one massive set.

Ah, yes - the vinyl ones have been coming out for some time now...

Does the DM on the box stand for Drug Money?

The vinyl sets are more expensive than that box set:

More like "Dang, Man!"

Could it be that this was instantly sold out? Can't find it anywhere.

Edit: Yeah, looks like it, just lasted for a couple of hours apparently ...

I want this but I'm also not a billionaire

No doubt they'll immediately pop up on ebay at an even more inflated price as soon as they are received by the scalper !

Saw it yesterday somewhere for £600 - Amazon Seller or maybe it was Discogs. Stupid money. I’d pay £200 for this tops.

Apparently too there were production issues, so it was delayed - again, I just can't buy something like this unless DM retired and this was a 'complete' collection... I have their singles original box set releases (the ones with the silver rings against black, volumes 1-6) and those were nice as they continued them when more singles came out.

I collect the current vinyl sets, which are dope; hope they'll continue to do those as well.

Never been a massive fan of them overall. That being said, Violator would be in my top ten all time favourite albums. Stunning record. 

My first [unintentional] introduction to DM was this as a kid:
