They can be had for $80 in Chicago, so I suspect slightly less in Wisconsin. ;-) I dunno about the rest of the universe, but I heard there was one for $80 in New Jersey.
I never had a CD player, I just went straight to a DVD player, and it plays both.
I just saw this on QVC - gave me a giggle, but not a bad low end machine nor a bad price.

They've had that thingy on the website with all the movie merchandise for awhile...I scared myself when I realized I was considering getting the DVD player because I liked the box so much.
