The red box set doesn't have it, but there's an older version (in blue) that does.

I don't see that it is there.

The red set has Tintin in the Land of the Soviets and Tintin and the Alph Art.

Yeah, guess that link is no good. There was a blue version that had everything. ~~See this guy's comparison video - clear shot of the back with Land of the Soviets and Congo showing right at the top:~~

ETA: Scratch that, found the ISBN, you can just use that to search -though it seems like it's cheaper to buy a regular set and get what's left out separately.

Better off with the paperback or Hardcover?

Costco has the set every once in a while (saw it there a month ago) for approx $40 (I think, but definitely not anywhere near the Amazon prices)

Putting Dr. Seuss in the same sentence as C&H (when it comes to DDMS) is Blasphemy!

C&H is in the same league as Settlers of Catan

Not seeing it online right now. Costco Canada has it for $190CA. So about $40.

This is true... I'll have extra kavana when I don't say viduy. In my weak defense, I wasn't think of exalted items in general, just books.

You're joking, right?

P.s. I'm not seeing the Costco.ca price, it just says $--

About the exchange rate or the price?

The rate

US Costco, and/or in-store (vs. online) could still be ~$40 USD

Step 1: Buy up copies
Step 2: Call for a ban
Step 3: Sell to outraged racists
