I already seen some people buying online. Then again, I already see a few reselling their upcoming purchase and re-selling for 2 grand. People who wants everything will buy. Who knows how much someone will sell the test pressing for.

They can be had from Spotify when the collection comes out. The rest are in circulation already.

No-one has to buy this, and no-one should (but some will). They are testing the market in my opinion - pushing up the costs all the time to see how the market reacts. £90 for a copy of All Things Must Pass, then wan't there something with Paul giving away bags of dice for some silly price edition, and another album in a suitcase. That ATMP box with crappy gnomes and a wooden bookmark was about £1000. Even the Revolver box, circa £150 for five CDs. Ridiculous.

People don't buy, they have to lower the price or just not release it.
Yes those rediculous high priced sets highlighted by that
Wooden box with the garden gnomes!
I always get a good laugh out of this video send up
of overpriced box sets with stupid bonuses and remixes by somebody’s son

Don’t like it? Then don’t buy it.
Simple as that!

Most people won't buy it, but not because they don't like it or don't want it, but because they can't buy it. If McCartney and the rest of the network of business interests which control these marketing drives hold the rest of us in such disdain, two fingers back to them. Steal it, download it, share it but don't feed the sharks or they'll end up consuming you.

By the way, 80 singles for £615 works out at £7.69 for each 45 single. (about $9 US). Taking the xxx.

The 45 edits of "Love Is Strange" (Wild Life Box Set) & "Goodnight Tonight" (All The Best) are both available on CD. Goodnight Tonight is the 45 version.
