Nah, it was just a huge lot with the ones I needed included that all of a sudden shot up by $40 in the last minute.

I'm only in need of LALD, Moonraker, Octopussy, the MGM LTK, DTS Brosnans and the 3 Criterion CAVs. Of course the inner completist and Bond fanatic in me is also saying NSNA, Casino Royale '67, the THX series and the Goldfinger CAV boxset.

TWINE is indeed at crazy prices. It would be nice to have but not essential. Except that is has the original Dolby 5.1 EX soundtrack which isn't on the UE. Is it on the original SE disc?

I do highly recommend the Brosnan discs however. I have the Goldeneye THX edition and it is one of the best ever issued LDs. Both soundtracks are stellar with huge LFE bass.

 

EDIT: Dammit, what is up with these last second ebay bids? Nowadays I usually have wait for the last 30 seconds to start, but even then there are bids that come in immediately thereafter that almost seem generated to be just above your maximum. This is what I get for throwing my hat in the ring on a Criterion FRWL CAV at the end.
