Back on topic, I couldn't agree more with Mike's methods to get the holy grails of surround. Some times is a matter of patience combined with good luck. I usually scout Discogs twice a day, looking for new appearances of items in my wantlist (never wait for the automatic mails sent by the application).
In the last month I managed to get for "reasonable" prices four of my pending grails: Heathen, Sailing to Philadelphia, Strange Beautiful Music and Honky Chateau. In the particular case of Heathen I made an offer to the seller to get a bundle of items (Riding with the King and In the Flesh SACD) at a reduced price that, to my surprise, he accepted.
That's another lesson learned: even if the seller says he does not accept any offers, give it a try!
