I presume you mean the Pichon and Vicaire edition?  Printed, it is
indeed rather pricey at $600-900.  For a relatively cheaply done 
reprint of a transcription I personally think it's over-priced.  

A copy of the 1892 transcription itself sold in Europe in 2002 for 
closer to $200, more reasonable I think.

I don't have a copy, but I can wander down to my university library 
and look at the reprint there.

If you don't need it on paper, the bulk of the Pichon and Vicaire 
transcription is online at

There's also the Scully edition in French and English, widely
available.
