While Christopher Paolini's second novel, Eldest
, may have knocked Harry Potter down a notch on Amazon.com's bestseller list, Scholastic is ramping up to offer a boxed set of all six Potter books to date.
A new image of the set is available at Amazon:
It will cost about $100 and include hardcover editions packaged in an artwork-covered case. Amazon says it will be available October 1, as we reported in June.
Thanks to HarryLatino.com for the tip.

Wouldn't I love to have that hardcover set! Hard to justify more copies of the books, though. Great for someone just getting into them.

That is really cool but I already own all the Canadian Potter books.
But having the set in the american editions would be nice too....

I always think it's kind of silly when I see these boxed sets before the whole series is out. :-P I wouldn't even buy a boxed set until the series was available. Maybe these incomplete sets will be worth money someday or somtheing. Who knows?

That looks like it will be cool, but I don't think I will be buying that one. I already have at least one copy of all of them, so if I do buy a "set," I will probably wait until all 7 come out.

Don't do it kids! It's just a ploy to get you to pointlessly buy more books. Who's going ot want a set of six when we've got all seven?

I'll probably get it when it's a box set of 7; it's kind of a waste of money if you get the box sets before the final book comes out. I can't wait for book seven!

It looks like such a nice book set. But I think i am going to have to wait until book 7 comes out before I finally pick up one and give away or sell my other ones.

It would be nice to have the box set, but I think I'm going to wait for book 7 first. I want a box set of all the books to keep for my very own!

Damn (sorry for the swearing), Why do they always do that? I mean, you buy the book when it comes out and then, WHAM, another 6pack with beautiful art comes out, all in hardback.

Although I have hard-covers of the first six, I might buy the boxed after the seventh book is out.
Did anyone see what the #3 book on the Amazon list was?

I am going to get the boxed set when all 7 books are out, I have the other books now, but my GoF is a paperback, and my other books are pretty well worn since I've read them so much! :) So, a new set of all of them would be nice!
