    Yep, I humbly acknowledge that this is holding true so far.

    Still wouldn't be shocked to see some eBay stores suddenly put out a slew of $20-$35 Omnibuses, but I'm not holding my breath.

    Don't know if this is the best place to mention it, but I guess it is:

    At this point it's pretty easy to get the Saga Deluxe Edition HC for like $22. It's just over $30 at both Amazon and B&N, and...
