I know, it's just cost me £24 for the John Grant - Queen of Denmark, on vinyl.

Mine was only £19.99 in HMV Belfast,why does it cost more at HMV Online? it's usually cheaper!
steven wilson's complete i.e.m. legacy: a 4cd box
described by himself as "a curiosity in my discography", i.e.m. has always been steven wilson's most obscure and mysterious project, active between 1996-2001, but with each release recorded and mixed in only a matter of days. divided into several parts and movements, the epic krautrock-suites of the debut album were equally influenced by the recording processes of early can, neu! and amon duul ii. while these long and constantly evolving pieces were built from inspired solo improvisations in the studio and catered to an anti-analytical production philosophy, arcadia son, featured a more conventional band of flute, drums and pt's colin edwin on bass. as porcupine tree moved more towards songs and structure, meanwhile, i.e.m. took over the experimental side of sw's personality, with 2001's i.e.m. have come for your children, de- and reconstructing instrumental contributions into up to 35-minute long electronic soundscapes. after the release of that album, however, bass communion firmly established itself as steven wilson's main experimental outfit and i.e.m. faded from sight - only to see its cult-status continually rise over the years.
the complete i.e.m. box now contains every single note officially released for the project. presented in a hardback slipcase box, with all four discs delicately packed into japanese style mini albums sleeves with innerbags, and coming with a 60-page booklet, this release is both an homage and a final farewell, and strictly limited to 2.000 copies worldwide

Jeez how unusual a limited edition box set from SW. 
Still I'll miss out on an other great investment no doubt.
