Which version do you have?

For the absolute cheapest ownership, grab the Standard version for $3. The HRN 139 at $6 and HRN 166 at $5 offer slight variations, likely in condition or specific print runs, which collectors value for completeness. If you are strictly budget-conscious, stick to Standard. If you want a slightly more desirable version without the highest premium, the HRN 166 is a reasonable step up from the base edition.
