I have been reading this series on E-books since WH and I have a few hard backs of the others, but I would like to begin collecting the entire series. IS there a print run or something that is more valuable? A quick search found some advanced reader's copies and a few neat looking sheath books with a more recent print date. Does anyone with any knowledge of this be interested in helping me figure out which books to search for? I would ideally like to find a 1st edition print of all the hard back books printed by the same press.

TEOTW and TGH both had a TPB as the first printing, not a hard-cover (I scoured a ton of bookstores before tracking them down).

I dream of a boxed set...

I like the TPBs actually. I'm not sure if they are as durable, but I might go for them instead of hard backs.

I just don't know if the later books ever came out in TPBs. I also have the first two books in that format, but none of the rest. I can't remember why I made certain decisions way back then, but I think I would have gotten TDR in TPB if it was available just to match.
