My So Called Life?

hey everybody, i know theres a My So Called Life boxed set of the seasons 19 episodes, i am also aware of it being OOP. So the question is, besides spending a crazy amount on ebay for the set, are there any online stores or someone selling it at a reasonable price?

Your best bet is to search some physical retail stores (Best Buy, Circuit City, Suncoast, etc) to see if they still have copies in stock. Most (if not all) of the major online retailers are out.

can you name the 6 stores? i had thought these were exhausted several, several months ago. saying you saw them at so and so and not naming so and so, really doesn't do much. please actually verify so peeps aren't going on wild goose chases. thanks.

My Local Wherehouse Music Store, usually has a set or two, for about $40 to $50. I bought the set years ago, fiasco and all. Now I wish you could get a rerelease like "freaks and geeks" but I know to file that one under "holey grail that i'll never see".

listing 6 stores, doesn't warrant confirmation. BB doesn't even list on site anymore, doubt there's anyway these stores would have them

No music was deleted or changed. They announced at the time that they were able to keep the music because the original clearances included other medium releases. I always thought this was odd as every other show from that time period has music clearance issues.

Quite awhile ago. There was only a small window of production time before the rights reverted back to Buena Vista.
