you too - I was looking recently for an allegedly best selling/paranormal detective series by Phil Rickman ( Merilly Watkins) - we'd just finished a 2nd hand paper copy of vol 10 - the latest I think - & I thought it would be good to actually go back to vol 1 & read them in the right order. So I check amazon books & amazon kindle - 6 of 10 books are out of print & kindle copies do not exist!

there has to be a case sooner or later for publishers to sell e-book series as sets, at a sensible price, rather than individual volumes ( like buying an album of songs & not a single)

where there is a series that has run to 30+ & counting e.g. Piers Antony Xanth, there's no way most folks will buy the set as 30+ individual e-purchases but a well discounted complete set , as a single download, would be tempting
