I finally threw up my hands and gave up trying to get an old copy
and decided to get a new one just a couple of weeks ago. Sites like
barnesandnoble.com and amazon.com will sell you the volumes seperately for
about $125 a piece, which is awfully steep. However, it had gotten to the
point where I felt I could not wait any longer to have my own copy on
hand. To make things a little more convenient for me, I decided not to
order over the internet, and instead ordered through a nearby "Chapters"
bookstore that I visit often. The clerk at Chapters took my order, but
no sooner had I hung up the phone when she called right back.
Apparently, under the listings of the separate volumes (each at about
$125) there was a listing for the "two volume set" (974pp) at the
mysterious price of $103 CDN. "Would you rather have that one?" asked the
clerk.
As Tim suggested a few months ago, there ARE copies out there. If
you keep digging, you can probably find the price you want.
