I was hoping that the box set would atleast be decent enough to be called as a collectible. Sadly, the final "box" looked nowhere close to the original advertized item. The only silver lining here was that I landed up getting a good deal on the books. My final price came out be $111.14. I had preordered this book about a month ago on Amazon. However, when I checked out the site on October 7, 2007, it said that orders placed at that time would have an additional 5% discount. So, I canceled my previous order and preordered it again to get the discount. So much for the preorder price guarantee!
