On a less unusual note, I found this at K-mart and bought it on a whim.

How much was the complete set? I bought vol 1 at TRU a few months back for $10.

The last time I saw it in a store it was about $7. Wish I would've bought it before K-Mart closed. I'm sure you could probably find it for that price or even cheaper on Amazon.

Bingo. Amazon carries the same for roughly the same price, free shipping too for prime. They also carry the split up volumes at $20 each.

The reason they did this is because of different release dates. The two volumes were released in 2004 and 2006, followed by the complete series in one package in 2009.

So basically the same reason why an older anime series is cheaper when it's sold on a by volume basis and not as a complete collection/box set/special edition/crazy shit.

Yeah, but just haven't been on a ML kick lately. Haven't been on much of anything, as I've been jobless of late. My current 30 day bid won't even cover Dragonzord, MMPR Blue & Tiger Ranger after expenses. But if I get this job......woo-hoo! Christmas in July!!!
