$40? That's a bit of an understatement IMHO. I'd say it's worth 100 on average. If you find one for less than 70, consider yourself lucky.
I got mine a few years ago for about $25 - in wonderful condition. I didn't realize they had gone up so much though I was tempted to say $100 for the top end. I stick by my $40 though - I have seen some really shitty ones out there.
broken cassette, (made in singapore) with color misprint (well i think it's a misprint: pink on the left half, orange on the right ). Got it for one euro
Its value is somewhat of a guess, as you can get cassettes pretty cheap, even the rare ones (cassette collecting is not so common), but I'd value it at 40-50 bucks, maybe more.
Closer To God US: about 10-15 USD
PHM Longbox sealed: 80, maybe 100
Broken lonbox sealed (with 3'' disc): 80 - 100
Broken without the 3'' (which means it can't be sealed originally): 50-60
Note that the Broken Longbox originally came WITH the 3'' disc. If this isn't included, it was opened and either replaced by the 99-track version or the 3'' just taken out. So, it cannot be sealed in this case.
Bad_Girl:
2-CD UK version of Closer usually doesn't come in white - they're more commonly black.
The part 2 white version CD can be occasionally found on ebay and it doesn't cost too much.
Part 1 is almost impossible to find in white variation - in fact the only one that I've seen in the last couple years is sitting pretty on my shelf, and it was unknown to the collecting community until recently. It's not on nincollector.com.
Part 1 black (digipak) 10-15 bucks
Part 2 black (slimcase) 10-15 bucks
Part 2 white (slimcase) 20-30 bucks
Part 1 white (digipak) 130-160 bucks
XTRMNTR: about 10-15 $, if it's in good condition. It's quite common.
Aneurism: it's not really IMPOSSIBLE to find it, but it's worth a lot to us collectors. I don't have it yet - would you consider selling it? I'd pay 150 for it.

I Will have to give that one some thought. This is actually the second one to pass through my collection. The first was bought new in 94 and disappeared after the break up with an ex. Took me 14 years to find another.
Depends: if it's the full set, including the 3 singles, the drink coaster, the tshirt, the certificate, the bottle opener etc, then it might fetch over 200 on ebay (considering some people have been paying close to that just for the 3 singles set).
