Beautiful, but not without its flaws

First thing’s first: this set is BEAUTIFUL. Everything shines perfectly in the light and makes all of the colors pop from the black covers. An amazing addition to any collection and to anyone who frequently plays the game, as these even have all of the updated errata to game rules. Whether it’s on a shelf or at the table, it’s gonna turn some heads. Now, onto the unfortunate bad. The printing of these editions clearly has had some issues, as I found minor ink stains in the spine on ~5 pages throughout all 3 books (The one pictured is the largest stain I found). The DMG also had pages that got folded up during printing which made them look like... that. Nothing which can’t be solved with a bit of cutting, but it’s still good to be aware of. There was also minor cosmetic damage to the outside of the box, but I’m not so concerned about that. If you get this set, inspect every page thoroughly for damages, but what you’ll be left with is a very special set of books!
