It depends on what you see as a small fortune, but www.tarantula-records.com has one for sale for 73,99 Euro. I think for the amount of music it is a good price since it is not currently on Amazon or Ebay.

Thanks for your quick response. That's still a little more than I can afford right now. I've been checking e-bay and Amazon, guess I'll keep checking.

Interestingly, both 'Two Towers complete recordings' and 'Return of the King complete
recordings' are now listed on Amazon.com with this: This item has been discontinued by the
manufacturer. Availability of ROTK complete has been problematic in the past year or so, with
prices occasionally soaring. Only the first one 'Fellowship of the Ring complete' has been
available at low prices, at one time it was available from Amazon 'new' at a bargain price. The
carton boxes are difficult to produce (I read somewhere that they are partly handmade). The
'normal' catalogue price for these sets are reasonable in my opinion, the booklets are well
done and extensive. The music is excellent and with 3 and 4 CD's respectively for Two Towers
and ROTK less expensive than the same number of new CD release (the booklet and DVD are
an extra bonus).

Two Towers is available for USD 54.71 from here:

The third set is still available here for USD 54.99;

Hard to predict if they will be re-released in this form in the future but I wouldn't take a
chance.
