Any opinions on the best recordings of the complete box sets?
Overstock has the Previn recordings for $26, plus there's a 10% off coupon floating around....I've seen two Adrian Boult sets for around ~$30, and finally there's a Vernon Handley collection for quite a bit more....

I have the Handley but never listened to them. I'd go for a good orchestra at the cheapest price, something all of the ones you mentioned qualify for. So get the cheapest.

Previn's recordings are the best I've heard, without a doubt. The fact that they're the cheapest is even more scrumptious chocolate mousse on an already delicious cake. Jockolantern

Just ordered it a couple days ago. I'm very excited about it.
