Originally touted as TV's first adult science fiction series, creator Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek is the most popular and influential science fiction series ever seen on American network television. Unlike so many other sci-fi/fantasy programs, Star Trek favoured strong characterizations and solid story values over gadgetry and monsters. The program quickly attracted the best writers of the genre, among them Richard Matheson, Theodore Sturgeon, Robert Bloch, David Gerrold and Harlan Ellison. Even so, there were still plenty of special photographic effects, which may seem a bit primitive when seen today but were sufficiently impressive to earn an Emmy award at the time. Describing space as 'the final frontier' in the famous opening narration, Captain James T. Kirk (William Shatner), commander of the starship U.S.S. Enterprise, informed the viewer that his vessel's five-year mission was to 'seek out new life forms and new civilizations', and 'to boldly go where no man has gone before.' Presented in this fantastic collection is the entire original series of the widely popular phenomenon.

This page may be handy as these appear to be part of the Father's Day offers on Amazon and many of them seem to be mispriced too:
(I know it's not quite as well regarded as Star Trek, but 3 seasons for £2.50 ain't bad)

I just got a stack of dispatch emails from amazon, all but 1 (awaiting stock 5th june) has been dispatched. I even opted for no rush delivery, so got £1 to spend on digital items for all 12 (different) boxsets I bought.
Very happy with Amazon :smile:

No, not using anything special. On the right hand side of the page under the add to basket button it says "Other sellers on Amazon" and the Amazon "Add to Basket" icon and price of £10.80 is there.

Look under "other sellers".
Amazon themselves have no stock immediately available, so the default price listed is from a marketplace (third-party) seller.

I've had a fair few misprices from Amazon. Probably more than from any other retailer. Tends to be 50/50 with them, as long as it's in stock and you opt for Prime delivery.
