I'm well pleased with what I got. Paper is high quality and the binding looks like it will last. It is obviously printed from a scan but I knew that going in, and for 20 bucks to have a physical copy of something that's been hard to find for years I cant complain. The text is clean and perfectly readable. The artwork isn't as crisp and clean as my originals - but that's fine.
This is a great way of getting a working, reading copy without relying on a PDF or paying a premium price for hard to find originals. Do bear in mind that is is several individual books that are combined into one volume, though, which can make it a little awkward to flip through at first.
I really hope that they keep putting out more of these classic settings in a print on demand format.
Also - there were no hex maps or Mystara maps included. There are only the maps that came with the original box set. Earlier versions of this scan had an issue with unrelated maps being substituted, but this is no longer the case and that problem is fixed and done with.
