Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri

I'm looking for a new boxed retail copy of the original Alpha Centauri. I found it at this place called dealdealdeal but the reviews on pricegrabber don't look so great and I doubt they would be good for older software like I'm looking for. Thanks in advance

The version in the normal box with that huge manual is getting extremley hard to find. Probably your best bet would be to look in places that dont sell many games. Like an office depot/max, curcit city, or walmart.
Lots of places just sell the jewl case for $12 or so though.

Dvd case with no manual (included as a .pdf on the cd).

I think I'll try to find the set with Alpha Centauri and the expansions somewhere. I'll check Best Buy today, probably not much chance there, maybe I'll try wal-mart too... I HATE Walmart grrrr....
