The two editioins that are available &quot;for a reasonable price&quot; are Rahlfs and Brenton.<br><br>
Brenton's 1851 edition, with his English translation, is available for $24.99 from:<br>
<a href="http://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/product/51259189?item_no=73442&event=SRC" eudora="autourl">http://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/product/51259189?item_no=73442&event=SRC><br><br>
For somewhat more modern scholarship, 1935, you can get Rahlf's for a little more money:<br><br>
<b>SEPTUAGINTA- A. Rahlfs, editor. One-volume reprint of the two-volume edition of 1935. Introduction in Modern Greek, Latin, German and English. Key to sigla. GBS, Stuttgart, 1979. Cloth, 19 x 12.5 cm, lxix, 1184, 941 p.</b> <br><br>
Amazon is selling this for $48.99:<br>

I haven't bought a Septuagint yet, but am also considering it. Someone on the list should be able to give a comparison of these two.<br><br>
