Maybe they're adding additional material? I can't imagine what though.
I'm sure they'll find something to raise the price by $25 ...
There a few options to pre-order from EU-Shops:
archonia.com from belgium
cheap-comics.com from the netherlands (don't know if they do pre-orders, but you can buy on release day or shortly after)
waltscomicshop.com from germany (told me in a facebook-chat, that they will soon offer non-dm-variants for pre-order for 70-75 eurocents/dollar, now they are around 80-85)
I will never buy from Amazon again. Was very tempted by some cheap offers on Amazon.es, but it was just a pain because of damages and returns and hassle... no, thank you.
Or just ask your local comic store if he can make you a deal for pre-ordering more expensive Omnis.
I had to approve the XOS HC delay on Amazon. Says the release date is March 23rd now. Price is still $54 for me. I’d love it if they added the XOS handbook to the HC...
Raffi, I bought Love's Labor Lost today on a whim, so good chance O'Neil's run on DD gets collected by Christmas

Omar announced an X-Men Inferno Prologue Omnibus yesterday (just in case anyone missed it). Comes in September.
Contents seems to be the same (at least he did not mention any differences) and there will be 2 covers.
Contents being the same I'm not upgrading just for the word Omnibus on the spine.
