The quality issues are the same as you find with any budget publisher. The 
materials used for the book are inexpensive so the book can be printed 
cheaply. For UK budget editions the printing and binding are often done in 
India to save labor costs. Compared to the original Sutton edition you would 
find the paper much thinner, the binding not as well done. This is fine as 
long as you understand what you're getting, and not expecting to have a $40 
book for $10. In this case what you are getting is a $10 book for $10.

>>You're talking the Wren Publishing hardcover edition, right?  What
 exactly ARE the quality issues with this book?  I've got a copy and it's
 quite nice.  The black and white photos are clear, as are the color
 photos in the middle. It is nicely typeset and laid out.  The binding
 seems a little weak, but I tend to abuse my books badly, so it may just
 be me.
