Penguin Classics do have superb introductions and notes, though. If you just want the "bare bones" text, there are plenty of other paper editions available, such as "Wordsworth Classics", which sells such texts at £1.99 each. Penguin Classics have always been sold as "scholarly" editions and priced accordingly.
