Oh, come on now Keith. We know that as soon as you get your hands on one, and the sticker shock wears off a bit, you'll be searching for the other!

Yeah, you are probably right.
However, I have to start someplace and am not about to be picky. Any legit copy that comes along in good condition is of interest at this point.

Slow night, eh guys? 
Is this a real life, is this just fantasy?
Stand by for the official announcement from Shout!Factory!
I actually didn't do too badly. The previous copy I had an opportunity to buy was through an online vendor (not eBay) a few months ago. He had a copy with the OBI strip for about $300 shipped. I'm not getting the OBI strip, which bugs me a little as a collector, but I also paid a good bit less.
As we sometimes do here Keith, here's a little analysis (in case you or your wife haven't already done it). This is all in fun of course, as we examine just what our CDs are worth. (Ask the Captain how much "Bo-Bo" was worth to him!)
Your winning bid, according to the expired eBay listing was $204.49, and FANDANGO clocks in at around 43 and a quarter minutes with 11 songs.
Figuring your cost of 11 track selections, we get $18.59 per song.
At 43.25 minutes, your cost is about $4.73 dollars per minute.
And at 2,595 seconds, your total is about 79 cents per second.
So, it appears that one minute of a digital original of Herb's FANDANGO is worth more than a gallon of gas!
