I stretched to the 10th anniversary edition of The Holy Bible
!
So
The Holy Bible x 2
Oh hang on. A certain kind soul upgraded me to the CD versions of Generation Terrorists and Gold Against the Soul n The Holy Bible. So scrub the above.

The Holy Bible x 3

Luckily. As I'd have nowt to play tapes on now

I look forward to seeing Nobody on the Antiques Roadshow in a few years though

Not a collector so 1 of each, except for the Everything Must Go CD which I have 2 of.

My mother brought me a bargain price copy (£3.99 from MVC). I'd been in the shop the day before so knew that's how much they were going for. However, she peeled off the £3.99 tag and left on the £12.99 tag so clearly wanted me to think she had paid the higher price. That's Welsh people for you

Lots of formats, lots of countries, lots of time for re-releases... it all adds up I guess. Especially when there are peculiar releases like my EMG carbon-neutral packaging or travel wallet... !
