Agree! I'm using the "What do you want for Christmas/Birthday/Fathers Day" question to build the Crossway set

That's correct. This is what they say in the Preface for the Works: "For that reason, we have returned again to the original editions of Owen’s texts to ensure the accuracy of their presentation here but have conformed the spelling to modern American standards, modernized older verb endings, reduced the use of italics where they do not clarify meaning, updated some hyphenation forms, modernized capitalization both for select terms in the text and for titles of Owen’s works, refreshed the typesetting, set lengthy quotations in block format, and both checked and added Scripture references in a consistent format where necessary. His marginal notes and footnotes have been clearly marked in footnotes as his (with “-Owen” appearing at the end of his content) to distinguish them from editorial comments. Foreign languages such as Greek, Hebrew, and Latin (which Owen knew and used extensively) have been translated into modern English, with the original languages retained in footnotes for scholarly reference (also followed by “-Owen”). If Goold omitted parts of the original text in his edition, we have restored them to their rightful place. Additionally, we have attempted to regularize the numbering system Owen employed, which was often imprecise and inconsistent; our order is 1, (1), [1], {1}, and 1st. We have also included various features to aid readers’ comprehension of Owen’s writings, including extensive introductions and outlines by established scholars in the field today, new paragraph breaks marked by a pilcrow (¶), chapter titles and appropriate headings (either entirely new or adapted from Goold), and explanatory footnotes that define archaic or obscure words and point out scriptural and other allusions in the text. On the rare occasions when we have added words to the text for readability, we have clearly marked them using square brackets. Having a team of experts involved, along with the benefit of modern online database technology, has also enabled us to make the prodigious effort to identify sources and citations in Owen that Russell and Goold deliberately avoided or were unable to locate for their editions."

I once met a retired pastor who had bought and used the same identical Bible just so he could make his notations in one and preach and teach from the other. The Cambridge set (Clarion, Wide Margin, Pit Minion) was my other option, but the Schuyler has larger text, which I've appreciated.

Where did you buy 23 volumes for 200$?!?

You’re right about that, and that’s my only hesitancy about it (though I have Owen on Logos, which will eliminate citation issues). I do appreciate Crossway’s organization of the works more though

It would be hard for me to decide between them, but I think the fact that the Crossway edition is more readable makes it more appealing to me. I think the citation issues are the main thing that will create issues between the two editions (so many books today refer to the Banner edition already)
