Any update on this? I would also love to see a reprint or updated version of Vol 1

On another forum, the timing is now August. I use the CP Vol 1, 5th ed available at an app called Bookshelf. The Kindle version is too wonky with the formatting as to this specific book. I can read this version on my iPad more easily, and pictures are better.

There's nothing beat having a book in hand, but the industry is forcing people to go digital.

Quote: The prices now for these books are just plain nuts! Exactly why I sold my copies. I knew JT Stanton and know Bill Fivaz, both great guys, and I knew from Bill and another friend they were still coming out with at least one more edition after the 6th. So I decided it was time to make some money, I think I got my copies even cheaper than list, around $40+ for both copies. I did well, I've also sold a few other books that I made a killing on lately, two copies of Bowers Vermont Coinage, (which ran out, but is back in large amount of stock) at Stack's ebay store. I got $300+ for my two copies, I bought 3 for less than $100. During the shut down year, I think people were just bored and those that have money were just buying all sorts of stuff just because. It was crazy selling on eBay/online for awhile, now it's dropped off a lot.

The latest ANA Numismatist issue has a little blurb about the new edition of the Cherry Picker's Guides, They will likely available before the end of the year, shooting that they can be sent before Christmas as gifts. Good News and fingers crossed!  The Numismatist October 2021, Page 21

I just want to say, for the historical record, that we've been duped yet again. I CANNOT wait for this book man.
