I know its over $100 and want to see who the real fans are??

I didn't get the boxed set. I bought seasons 1 & 2, the combo pack, at the "suggested retail price" at a store, and and seasons 3 and 4 as well. For seasons 5 through 9, I bought them previously owned at half price at a discount media store here.

I got mine a couple of weeks ago for $80. The price for the Season 3 and 4 DVDs sets are ridiculous so might as well spend a couple of more bucks and get "Girls School", the movies, and The Paley Center interviews (which I have not seen yet).

I don't have the boxed set. I do, however, have the first four classic seasons on DVD. Eventually, I'll get seasons 5 and 6 as well.

Sure, sure...when you also pick up Charlotte's book.

I have the individual seasons. I knew they were going to release the rest individually after the box set came out, so I waited for that.

I’m probably one of the few (hopefully not only

) fans that ordered the box set during preorder and paid the fastest shipping speed available. I wanted this show so bad and couldn’t wait. I remember I got my copy like a month before the release of the box set. It was worth the extra cash for that shipping speed. This is the only show I’ve spent a lot for shipping. And it definitely wasn’t a waste since I watch an episode or more every day.

I am watching the Paley Center town hall tonight. May start a thread on it tomorrow if it has enough interesting tidbits.

I bought the season 1 & 2 combo pack, then 3, 4 & 5 in 2011 (when the box set wasn't available yet) and season 6 recently (before the 'lock down') and now planning to get season 8, since it's a very popular later season one among this site.

Please do. I saw enough clips on YouTube and it definitely deserves discussion.
