The "classics option" is a very good one. If a person can only read an average of 1000 books in a lifetime (varies by person, of course), then there are certainly some classics out there than should be on the list (I'm reading Moby Dick right now, and want to read some Virginia Woolf).

I am in favor of the strategy of "sit this one out" until the prices are more reasonable.
