For single albums rather than box sets, I would say $30 to $50, especially when buying Japanese albums, premium pricing becomes somewhat a standard...

For most out-of-print English albums, $20 are enough to make me frown.

For most of the classic albums, I simply download them instead of pay for them, since they have absolutely no re-sale value and used CD stores take them back at 25 cents each (and they sell jewel cases for 50 cents each!)

Collecting CDs is a vain hobby (vinyls may worth investing) anyway. I should really waste money on something else!
