three cd's
one cassete
one record
the deluxe reissue

anyone else have a lot of copies of this or anyother sy records?
anyone else bought this alblum many times

I have actually bought one, at aomeba, used, and I switchd the tag from 9 bucks {those assholes!} to 4 bucks as I usually do with used albums at aomebas. I have to buy sonic youth records because I am the only one in my circle of friends who listens to them, and therefore I can not just burn other peoples music.
