nonsense.
Brill always prices their books quite reasonably, since they realise that the
number of copies they sell is directly proportional to the affordability of
the title.
why, the idea that Brill (or Brepols) would demand an outrageously high price
for a book is absurd on its face.
you must be thinking of Oxford or Cambridge u.p.
besides, you can buy the CD-ROM for only $480 euros --so that should keep the
price down on the Brill edition :

i filled out the Brill questionaire yesterday, and gave them the benefits of
some of my thoughts --perhaps others should, as well.
