I have the 2012 Hodder paperback editions of The Dark Tower vols. I to V as well as The Wind Through The Keyhole but my copies of vols. VI and VII were not part of the same print.
It was annoying me whenever I looked at the spines lined up on my bookshelf that The Dark Tower was not complete so today I went on to EBay and ordered 'very good' used copies of said 2012 printings of Song of Susannah and The Dark Tower.
I'll be a happy CR when I have the whole set together.

Strange fact - I had to top up my bank account after using PayPal as I have a bill to pay. The amount I had to lodge?
€19 ;;D

That would annoy the life out of me, I have the 2003 Hodder set 1-7 but my volume 7 is illustrated and bigger than the rest and even that annoys me. My copy of wind through the key hole is hardback and while it doesn't match, it doesn't bother me too much because it's kind of a stand alone anyway and fits nice on my hardback shelf.

I've seen the newer box set online for £35, i might treat myself.

That's a pretty decent price for the box set. I was tempted but the editions I have are in really good condition so decided with going the way I did.

Not sure if this has been discussed on this board yet, but I picked up the Ultimate Guide to Stephen King magazine (an Entertainment Magazine Collector's Edition). Tons of great photos I've never seen before!
