The new John Lennon box set is going to cost HOW MUCH?

May 16, 2024 Alan Cross 0 Comments

Over the years, I’ve seen some expensive box sets. The Pixies had one that retailed for around $800. There was Guns N’ Roses package that sold for close to $1500. This one, however, sets a new record.

The estate of John Lennon is ready with a new box set for his Mind Games album. It will include:

Two limited edition reproduction artworks by John and Yoko along with certificates of authenticity
A hologram-engraved EP
9 LPs (including two Zoetrope picture discs)
6 CDs
2 Blu-rays
2 books
4 posters
2 maps
3 badges
A word puzzle
“Bespoke I-Ching coins”
The official flag of Nutopia (John and Yoko’s mythical microstate)
A Nutopian seal stamp
A Nutopian Embassy replica plaque

How much? About US$1300 or CAD$1771. In Australia, it will have a retail price of–wait for it AUS$2599.
