I saw the new HP boxset tonight at Toys R Us and I was really disappointed. It comes in a (somewhat flimsy cardboard) briefcase.  The idea of it was so cool but, given that we already own all of the books in HC, paperback, and on audio, there's no way  I'm selling out the $195 for that.

Anybody else seen it?

I saw it at Borders over the weekend.  I wasn't very impressed either.  Actually, it made me feel better.  I already own all in HB  and all but HP and the SS are even first editions, so I was having a difficult time justifying purchasing the set.

i wanted to purchase it but couldn't bring myself to do it becasue it was so flimsy- I only wanted it becasue most of my others are first editions and I don't want them damaged from overuse :)
