Best price I can see is at www.ukbol.com (http://tracker.tradedoubler.com/click?p=3586&a=60823&g=21172) (or www.justgoodbooks.co.uk - they are the same people essentially). £16 for a set of the paperbacks.

Do bol still have the contract thing in that if you buy from them you have to buy x number of books as well afterwards ? If so, steer well clear.

Cheapest place was (is ?) www.thebookpeople.co.uk , no minimum commitments, they don't seem to have it at the moment, but might well get it again, check ther website for details.

Don't know where you're based, but I bought the trilogy, boxed, from a branch of Sussex Stationers (although not in Sussex) for £12 a few months back. They're pretty good at offering knock-down prices on fairly recently published titles.

They do - both BOL and JustGoodBooks require you to buy one more item from them within six months. That's the extent of the commitment, and they don't send you "Editor's Choice" thigns either, so it's not really very difficult to fulfil the requirement, at least not if you buy books on any sort of regular basis. BOL have a decent catalogue available, and the prices are much better than most retailers and etailers anyway. I'm comfortable recommending them.

Our local Waterstones has quite frequently had the trilogy in the buy three for one sale.
You have tried in there havent you?
