What’s your reasoning for having different editions of the same book/series?

Why do you choose one book/series over the other books you have?

How much are you willing to spend on editions?

I’ve recently watched a lot of tik toks of people showing their different editions of their favorite books/series and I got curious.

    I can’t ever see myself doing this since I limit my book collection so I don’t overspend. If I, for some reason, wanted to get a different edition of a book I have because of differences in text or art, I’d probably either sell or give away my old copy. I guess I could understand buying different translations of a book to compare, but that seems like a bit of an edge case.
