I would love to get the whole set of the LOTR DVDs.

Does anybody have information about where I can find the best price for this?

The boxed set I've seen is only the theatrical versions, none of the added scenes, none of the special features on the making and filming of the movies, which are really well done. I'd splurge the extra to get the Extended Editions of each, even if bought separately

Amazon has box sets of both editions available (I would ~highly~ recommend the Extended Editions).

The Lord of the Rings - Trilogy Box Set (Extended Editions)
The Lord of the Rings - Trilogy Box Set (Theatrical Editions)

With the latest gift edition (Minas Tirith trinket box) you get a coupon for a dust jacket/box to hold all three EEs! I think the charge is mostly for postage--$3
