Codex Sinaiticus, Facsimile Edition

While this blog is for English Bibles, I do occasionally come across other language Bibles that deserve mention here. One such Bible is the new facsimile of the Codex Sinaiticus from Hendrickson. It is 828 pages long, 13.5 inches wide by 16.5 inches tall. I am not fortunate enough to be able to afford one yet, as the retail price on this is $799. I noticed in recently in the catalog of Christian Book Distributors for $499. You can see it online at their website. Unfortunately, Amazon.com has it at a much higher price of $639.20. There is a review on Amazon.com by author David deSilva. However, even at $640, it is cheap compared the the Codex Vaticanus B available online. I'd love to hear from any of you that own a copy or have had access to one.
