I bought the GRRR 5 cd Deluxe Box for around $45 a year or so after release on Amazon (might have been via the marketplace/other sellers).
Came with a decent hardcover book, some postcards, a poster, 7" vinyl (BBC sessions), bonus disc of early demos, and most importantly the box itself which has a giant image of Grrregory the gorilla.

I got that deal off the amazon.co.uk website. I shoulda bought a couple, that was a screaming deal.

There were two major pricing mistakes by amazon (or it was a kind of promo action).
The 1st one was in 2012 with GRRR Superdeluxe at amazon de. It was priced at 30 Euros or something like that (the total with VAT and S&H was about 45 Euros).

I do not own this one anymore, never open it, made a present to a friend. If I remember correctly the number of the copy was 08xxx (eight thousand something).

The second mistake was with Sticky Fingers Superdeluxe at amazon co uk. They priced it at 9.95 GBP for about an hour or so. I got mine for 15.57 GBP shipped. Still wondering why I did not order two.

Afterwards amazon was a bit more careful with pricing for Superdeluxe editions.

Just looked back through my orders on Amazon US dating back to 2012, and damn I have bought alot of stuff and spent alot of money over the years!!! And then there's all the other sites....
This purchase was actually in Jan. 2015 and paid $46.30 + $3.99 shipping - so quite some time after initial release, and was bought from MovieMars-CDs via Amazon US- highly trustworthy as I've ordered many items from them. MM via Amazon
They also have their own website ( Movie Mars ), but I've only ordered via Amazon US. Anyhow, sometimes there's deals to be had, and a bit of patience can be rewarding. Haven't bought HONK yet in any format, and doubt I ever will, but if there's ever a massive discount to be had such as the above, might be hard to resist. BEST deal I ever had was the Brussels massive cd/vinyl box set for $150 via RollingStones.com originally priced at a whopping $450 or more.
It's a mighty fine and impressive solid box which even had it's own customized protective outer cardboard box....snazzy watch included!
