I voted for "less than $50", but I really mean much less. In fact, I wouldn't pay more than $20. And $20 would be unlikely, seeing as the paperback is available for $13.57 from Amazon and the hardback is only $21.86

$9.99 seems a reasonable price. for the complete collection.

Selling the individual stories at $1.99 is an incredible rip-off.

Here’s the question:

If Sony bundled all these stories, what would be the maximum price that would cause you to think about buying them?

Prices are in USD.
