Will probably do a new version of this every fortnight until release date.

Current prices for UK Deluxe and Trade editions, Book Depository is from a UK IP address, may be a different price from other countries.

A Great Read is UK Shipping only (thanks Urulókë)

Thanks Trotter!

For those looking at the tasty price from "A Great Read", know that they ship to the UK only.

Speedyhen's website does say "We are delighted to say we now offer worldwide shipping." I have not tried this (from UK to USA) via Speedyhen, yet, so I do not know what packaging they use or how long delivery might take.

Bookdepository, from a US IP address, says the deluxe is US$184.66 and the standard is US$73.87

FYI I have updated the calendar page (and will go back and update this post info) with the delay for the US trade edition - was going to be released mid-October, but is now officially November 2nd.

I assume the book will state it is by HarperCollins and not HMHCo.

Thank you for the spreadsheet Trotter, very usefull.
I have to compute a lot more when purchasing new UK Tolkien publications these days...
New VAT tax in France for imported goods, custom fees due to Brexit, plus the fact that I can't receive books personnaly (I'm not at home on delivery schedules, and can't be physically here to pay the taxes if I make my book delivered to my work place (for which the delivery address is a huge delivery bay). So my options are limited : make it delivered to a pick-up, I don't have many other choices than to use Amazon FR (french pick-ups spots are not even available when using amazon UK...)

That is a temporary/interim solution for books being published during the transition.

The terms of HarperCollins’ purchase of Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Books & Media prevent HC from using the HMH name or branding going forward. While HC continues to work on the integration of HMH, frontlist and reprinted adult books going to press on July 7 or after that were branded HMH will temporarily use the Mariner name and colophon, and children’s books that were branded HMH will temporarily use the Clarion name and branding. Audiobooks will adopt the Mariner and Clarion names as appropriate, and HMH Productions is now called HarperCollins Productions. The HMH brand has been retained by the learning technology company.

It’s certainly different.

Ha Ha. Yeah - that's my feeling. There really is a far too much going on here. I'd definitely have preferred it if they had abandoned the red page edges -- but I guess it does stand out.
