Do thank your colleagues in the retail arm over on .co.uk for me.

On launch, they very briefly mislisted the updated TAOCP 1-4B box set at £33 (~ $40), and to my surprise and delight, honoured it!

Hehe, I also got the box set at a huge discount when 4B came out. Amazon took their sweet time (and I had to confirm I didn't want to cancel the order), but they came through and I got my box set. It will be my son's graduation present.
