I just came across this on Ebay (Canada)... this may be of interest to some:
https://www.ebay.ca/itm/204271572409
I bought my 2 volumes at full price when they were first published... this price (with shipping) - $602.10 AU = $544.07 CAD is a real deal (approx. $408.00 USD). I paid almost double this current price...

LISTING IS STILL ONGOING....Probably relisted... Someone got a good deal on 1st set?! J.K.

I had no idea it was that expensive. I bought the books last year for about $500 CAD.

In case that anyone sleeps here.
$500 CAD in 2022 is now worth about $1000
Fake inflation to make middle class more poor.
Keep in mind that salaries DID NOT go up 100% !!!!!

When first published, I paid $960.00 CAD (includes shipping) for my 2 volumes.... Now, checking on xe.com - 1 dollar USD = .75 CAD... & 1 dollar USD = .67 AUD!
joachim - say what??... translated to English online "Hello, there is still one available & the price is okay. You can also buy it from the author himself."

There was no longer a listing on ebay.ca when I checked in at around 11:15 pm (my central time) yesterday. Seller must have more than one 2 vol. set available & simply relisted it... still a good deal (with shipping) compared to initial publication/shipping price that I paid.

It seems the price has come down over time, I got my copy from the publisher in January 2018 for 400 Euro (approx $600 Cdn).
