Honestly can’t remember. But on discogs the cheapest one is 199 euros. German seller. So add import duty and vat. And it’s not brand new. And it’s not signed by fish. The most expensive is 363 euros. Still not signed by fish.

The thing with these Marillion box sets is that they were produced in limited numbers and went out of print quite early. And they’ve become very collectible and very hard to find. The most expensive one is misplaced childhood. If you can find it, expect a very deep in your purse. Sadly I didn’t get that one. But I purchased two copies of the clutching at straws. Both signed my fish. I’m selling off the spare.
They are going up in value, so it is an investment. Same goes for jethro tull songs from the wood. They are really good investments. The tull will now set you back 200 quid at least.

Fish autographed all of the copies that he sold through his website. Sold out very quickly.

As you can see, the cellophane wrapping has been removed. It had to be removed so that fish could autograph the cover with what appears to be a gold pen. I’ve never played these discs. Never touched them. I bought two copies. I think I’ve only played one disc out of my copy. Never listened to the surround mix on Blu-ray. Maybe I should do that this bank hol

Misplaced childhood and clutching regularly sell for 200 pounds plus. Both On eBay and discogs. Not sure about Fugazi and script.
Post fish era holds no interest for me. Not sure what they sell for.

Zero stock. It’s out of print. Sold out within weeks and very unlikely to be repressed. They never repressed misplaced childhood. And that also sells for big bucks.
Go ahead, try ordering it on marillion.com. See how far you get

I do realise that some people on here think that I’m taking advantage by selling at this price. I get that. But when something goes out of print, inevitably, it goes up in value.

There are dozens of box sets that didn’t cost too much money when they were released and now sell for hundreds and hundreds of pounds and in some cases thousands of pounds. That’s the market.

And I’ll save you the trouble of trying to order it on merlion.com. If you put it in your basket and go to check out this is what you will see….

So yea. I am sure. I don’t make claims unless I’m sure of facts.
I don’t suppose it will sell. But I’m not bothered about that. Just thought I’d put it on the off chance that there’s a Marillion collector that didn’t get it on its release. And rather than getting into the bidding wars on eBay they can buy it at an average market price and benefit from it being signed. And it’s new. Never played

I guess the same applies to vinyl. That’s why vintage miles Davis lps sell for hundreds of pounds despite costing a few pennies when new.

Sadly not. Script and fugazi I are still available. Only misplaced childhood and clutching are out of print and sell for high prices.
