Several times, I've been thwarted from finishing a book because I only owned part of it. Usually because they were inherited in not-entirely-complete condition, but once because it turned out to be misprinted - the last third had been replaced by a second copy of the first third.

I hate that problem! I still haven't read the last 20 pages of the first Circle of Magic book thanks to this problem. I've twice in my life bought books with duplicated text/missing sections, and thanks to that, I nearly always flip through books before buying now, checking that, at least superficially, all the pages look like they're there in order.
