The books I purchased are very good and they were mailed to us on Christmas Day. The service of Amazon is amazing! Thanks a lot.

Product was in good shape but with a few scratches on the bottom. Arrived in a timely way.

I've been wanting to buy the US editions for a while now, so when I saw this for such a great price (others were offering twice as much; or individually for $AUD30+ per book!) I was finally able to purchase them. As it was the cheapest way to get the entire series, the "trunk" wasn't a necessity for me, but it looks awesome, has a definite "wow" factor and is sturdy and strong enough to maintain the weight of the books. I had it sitting in my living room for a couple of days, and visitors were amazed and enthralled by it, ha.
As for the books: GORGEOUS. The images online don't do them any justice. They look and feel luxurious (the paper quality is fantastic). They're kinda scene-stealing from my original (admittedly tattered) UK versions!

After reading many negative reviews about the quality of the "box" that these books come in, I decided to buy this anyway. Buying each of the books individually comes out to a couple of extra dollars, so this was the most cost effective way to purchase all 7 hardcovers (as of December 2009). You're essentially getting the box free along with the books, and it makes for a nice present. Is the box of superior quality? No. Was I expecting a handcrafted wooden box to be included free of cost with the books? No. People have unrealistic expectations, and I would definitely recommend this as a nice gift as long as you realize that the cardboard box should be recycled at some point while keeping the books. We just gave this as a present to a 14 year old, and found that the packaging added a nice little boost to the overall "wow factor" when opening the present. Think of it as extra wrapping paper that makes for a nice presentation. And remember, it doesn't cost you anything. Once practicality kicks in, and it's time for the books to live on a shelf, it's easy to break it down and throw it in the recycle bin. If you want a nice wooden box for the books, then be prepared to pay a premium. It's nice for "free".

This product was delivered right on time, and came in excellent condition. I'm new to buying things from amazon, but with service like this, I'll be coming back again and again.
