| It appears you need to wait for a new printing or have to buy it used in some time in the future. |

| Any particular reason you are loathe to pick up the regular paperbacks? |

<Half Price Books> has it for *gulp* $30.
I just got them separate, used and for dirt cheap. I prefer the omnibuses, but I couldn't pass up these prices.
If I like it at all, I'll resell the PB's and track down thar omnibus some day. |

My bad. That link is to individual volumes--NOT the omnibus edition.
$30 for 3 paperbacks?!! I think I paid $0.85 to $1.99 each, used, with free shipping from Amazon. |

Is the free Amazon shipping because of Prime? |

No, it was Amazon's Super Saver Shipping option, which allows you to waive shipping costs if you order at least $25 worth of stuff. Sometimes even the dirt-cheap stuff is eligible for this option, but usually it's not. This time, it was. I combined 3 used copies of the individual paperbacks with some other things, and they waived S&H. So I got to have my cake (cheap purchase prices), and eat it, too (free shipping). |

Was this omnibus ever officially released? I seem to remember when it was in the pipeline, but I don't recall it ever beeing released. And I even have some memory deep down of it being cancelled, maybe? Amazon has no release date for it, just that it's "not available".
I had all three books at the time, so I really didn't think anythig else of it. |

I had started to wonder if there was a first printing, what I found was a few sites advertized it however indicated they had no copies. It has a bar code, however a bar code is issued before the first printing is released. *shrugs* |

WOTC's site <listing of novels> does not list an omnibus for this series; it only lists the individual paperbacks.
It does list the omnibus collector's editions for RAS, though.
I only see the "TLP" omnibus listed at the UK amazon site, but not at the US amazon site. |
