Thanks for sharing. It’ll be extremely hard to win this bid at a reasonable price, but let’s see.
Another set for sale. That two in 10 days isn’t it. But this looks like a custom slip?
That IS a custom slipcase, as designed by David Miller (Tolkien Bookshelf). Because of that, the cost of the eBay listing should be taken into consideration.
What gave it away was the ribbon, and possibly the shade of red.

It is very misleading of the seller to describe this as a "centenary boxed set". It isn't - it is the three individual books in an aftermarket slipcase. That slipcase has no *collectible* value whatsoever (though individual people might like bonded-leather aftermarket slipcases, of course - plenty of people I respect do).
Without the original slipcase, these books are not uncommon. I could assemble a set for £60 today.
