How Very Excruciatingly Tempting

I was planning on passing the 8th edition big red book and just wait a couple months for the mini rulebook that's included in the starter set. Granted it's a gorgeous book with lots of pictures but it's freaking $75!!! So then I get this newsletter from an internet store that I subscribed to offering the book 25% off retail plus $3 shipping. Dangit! So tempting! Argh! Do I or Don't I? Stay tune to see if I break...
