Well, I bought it for $188...price bumped up again.
This isn't the typical stones album or greatest hits, this is a curio, the 'must have' set for those completists that want the artwork and every version and remix of every single.
It's been much higher priced and I think there are few sets left for those that are interested.

Remix of every single? I haven't looked at the track listing in a while but I doubt it has every remix of every single that had a remix.
There are 2 remixes of Miss You, then the LP version and the UK single version, which is just an edit of the LP version. Does it include the Dr re "remix"?
There are those shit "remixes" of You Got Me Rocking etc.
Are you telling me all of those are in this box set release? Or... something?

So with the exchange, over $230 CAD...slightly higher now than the Amazon.ca site.
When i first posted, the USD price (factoring in the exchange) was $140.29.

This was the first time I ever passed on a Rolling Stones release. I had every song on CD already except a few remixes that I didn't really care about. I was super excited that "Think I'm Going Mad" was finally officially released on CD and then found out it had that bad edit or error in the beginning of the track!

yes, that is what I'm telling you. If you choose to believe me, you've only yourself to blame.

Yep, a skip in the first few seconds. But you can send it in for a correction disc, which I did, and it's all good. The collection also has the single version of "All Down The Line"...a noticeably different mix.

End of February 2015 there was btw a real bargain for the Singles-Collection 1971-2006 in the German iTunes-Store - all 45 Singles (173 Tracks) for just € 8.99: [iorr.org] . And with a rebated iTunes gift card you could get the whole 'Box' even for 15-20% less.
It's still available on [iTunes.apple.com] , but it's (currently) no bargain ....

The replacement disc is all good if you play the whole CD starting with Track 1 "She Was Hot. If you play only Track 2 "Think I'm Going Mad", then the song starts a half second in.

Nope. Not every mix of every single. It is a great collection, but it famously and frustratingly omits the "Too Much Blood" mixes.
