Bookempire has a 10 volume Shakespeare library, bound in faux leather and contained in a fold out box, advertised for $19.95, marked down from $59.95. Postage is free within Australia. Could be a good buy for any Shakespeare lovers, or people who have just always wanted a copy of the complete works of Shakespeare to sit on their bookshelf and look impressive!
Parting with my cash is such sweet sorrow

Alas, out of stock?
So it would seem! "The hurly-burly's done, the battle's lost and won". ;)
Checkout doesn't work for me on a different item. Doesn't give me an option of selecting a shipping method but won't let me proceed to payment without seleceting one.
I didn't have any problems checking out earlier. The only shipping option was 'free postage' and the payment methods were direct deposit, Paypal, purchase order, or credit card.
Are they real leather? I have to know if they're real leather because they have to go with the sofa.

So people actually read his plays that are in old English for leisure? How do you understand everything? Or is the fun derived from interpretation?
They're written in Early Modern English, which is perfectly understandable.
An example of Old English literature is Beowulf, which was on the year 7 curriculum when I went through under 15 years ago.
No more stock
Seems to be $5 on amazon, with $12.49 shipping. Don't know if it's the same thing, but might be useful for some people who've missed out.

It seems the set is is only available through outside sellers at Amazon. As far as I'm aware postage to Australia is not available through these sellers, unless this has changed?
To the iPad generation, these things are REAL BOOKS. People used to read these things by manually turning pages with your fingers. No power adapter or iTunes credit required. Added bonus of no radiation either, plus they smell nice :).
Bummer out of stock, wouldnt have minded this set.
To purchase or not to purchase? That is the question.
