Larks' BIg Box Set S
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Tue., Nov 13, 2012

It's come to our attention that a copy of the Larks' Tongues In Aspic big box set is being sold on Ebay for a truly ridiculous sum, claiming that the limited edition is sold out.

While things are indeed heading that way, and that DGM Mail Order has sold out its allocation of the box, there are still plenty of copies of available at a non-gouging price from those nice people at Burning Shed.

Don't give these rip-off merchants on Ebay your trade and save yourself a buck or ten!
