Got H-R volume. Only 1 book.

It's list as 3000 pages in the product info. It's not 3,000. I thought because there were actually one user getting the whole 3 set, that I will get it too. Not true. Notice that it is 2008. Maybe in beginning they were selling three volumes as one listing, but now it means one. If it's only one, just say one. I thought initally that the first book is dictionary and the second and third book are languages dictionary. Hence, I was wiling to risk not getting the languages dictionary for just the dictionary. It looks like you will need all three to use because all the three are dictionary. Why did publisher print it out as three books set anyway? Oh well, just be aware that this will not be three volumes. It could all be H-R dicionary that's available.

Not what was pictured; only volume 1 shipped

Expecting full dictionary as described and pictured, but only received the first volume in the set. Yes, it's a newer printing, but a dictionary doesn't do much good when it's only for some of the words you need to look up.

Not a set, only vol. 1. Still waiting for volume 2 and 3.

Beautiful set with one of the most extensive definitions anywhere.

This is a beautiful set with one of the most thorough word and definition lists that I have found. The third volume contains a dictionary for 7 different languages. This is a collectors set, but with excellent practical use! (Great to use for challenges in Scrabble :)
