Exactly my take on Amazon products. My set came from a bookseller, and was advertised as used but in pristine condition. Unfortunately, the original shrink wrap was missing and the TV series' interior pasteboard boxes had been opened, but the addition of the reunion movies more than made up for that! It was shipped to me in a very sturdy cardboard box, seemingly cut down and reglued to fit the set. I was more than satisfied with Amazon and the bookstore!
