Looks like CC will be $34.99. Haven't seen anyone else below $39.99.

Also, haven't seen a price from FYE yet, but they usually beat everyone by a couple bucks if you don't mind dealing with a rebate.

Well, a lot of the stuff can't be shown again for legal reasons, and a lot of the material is available on the CKY movies.

I could've sworn this set was as complete as possible. Of course, some music will have to be changed. Hopefully, they change it to something cool that they can easily get the rights to (like HIM, 69 Eyes, Bloodhound Gang, CKY, etc.) and not just generic knockoff garbage. I mean, who wants to hear Ramones knockoff instrumentals?

It is the complete stuff with the exception of those that couldnt be released for the legal reasons. I sincerely hope they included the bit with brad pitt running around in monkey suits. If everyone seems to be in the 34.99 area frys should have it at 29.99ish

For example, what couldn't be released for legal reasons? Just curious. I'm a big Jackass fan and I have the old volumes 2 and 3, was dissapointed with the music selection.

Well this is just 2 and 3 with a new "volume 1" I believe.

Let me see... there's a few skits/stunts that had kids copying them and leading to horrible results. Those have been removed. Also, there are a few CKY skits/stunts that were on Jackass, and if they were removed from the CKY Box Set, they've been removed from this set.

Well this is just 2 and 3 with a new "volume 1" I believe.

The Volume 1 that is released separately is different from the boxset Volume 1. Also, I believe Volumes 2 & 3 in the boxset have extra content. So, it's best to sell your Vol. 2 & 3 copies and buy the set.

I love Jackass, but I wasn't going to pick this up. After reading this post, I think I might actually pick it up from Circuit City. I have a $25 gift card to use up anyway.

Including some of the more "controversial" skits, a lot fo the legal action involved the licencing of the music played during some skits from the first season.

I know this is a somewhat old topic, but...

Is there anywhere that has it for under $40? I don't think CC has it for $35 anymore.

The current best price would be waiting until the DDD 20% off sale to get it for $32, but even that's not really a doorbusting deal.

That wouldn't be for quite a while though, unless theres one coming up that I don't know about?

No, you are correct: not until May. :-(

I was hoping to make this a Christmas present. I guess I'll have to bite the bullet and pay $40.
