Adventures of superboy! That's a huge maybe....might wait for paperback though

absolute all star? Depends on the extras. No extras I'll just wait for a huge sale and buy it later.

Might be a long wait. These hardcover reprints of classic stuff tend to be treated like Archives, and *not* released in paperback, unlike the hardback editions of more recent storylines.

Tales of Wonder has a preorder price of around $26, and even I can handle that. Amazon is cheap, too, but they've screwed me for the last time with their lousy packing and shipping practices. They need to be up front and call the "30% discount" what it really is: a Scratch and Dent Sale.
