Thanks Dean. "Scam" is uncalled for.

Man, I'm all the way down here and I could tell you where kidding. You always recommend the "blemished set".

Every time I reach for one of the volumes, I can not help but silently thank the authors of these books. The time and dedication that went in to the research, All the guys in this group that helped with copies of records, my hat is off to you! Thank you, Gary

Calvin's TPS is missing pages. I heard of another set bought as blemished that was also missing pages. Maybe some are perfect, I don't know, but I do know that some are truly blemished.

I am glad that was clarified. Maybe the full price version is the best deal after all.

Bill, I really don't know. I know of two that have missing pages, but then I hear nothing untoward about others, so I suppose a person takes his chances. And I don't know if they are sold on an "as is" basis.

The set that I wanted was the leather bound set. I finallly located one through this board. I was pleased and the lucky fellow that bought my trade set, at the UPer, for $75 was as happy as could be.

G'Suffa, Prosit,

August, what do you consider to be the market value of the leather bound edition? I have never seen one offered for sale.

Mr. Murphy,

I believe that I paid $400.00. I was pleased to acquire the set. I may have purchased it from one of the authors. Its signed by all of the authors. The set is really nice. I hope you have good luck, if you don't already own a set.

Prosit
