There was only one box set of all of their standard albums, including
the two Past Masters discs (UK versions):

http://www.amazon.com/Beatles-Multiselection-Box-Set/dp/B000002UU7/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1213304410&sr=8-1

It will probably be cheaper to buy the individual CDs.

Other box sets exist for UK EPs, UK singles, and two for US albums up
to 1965.

As far as compilations, there are relatively few on CD:
1962-1966
1967-1970
Beatles 1
