Yes...my box-set of the first three books are all Raincoat editions. 
It's just that I was surprised to see that my copy of GoF has nothing
related to or mentioning Raincoast in or on it anywhere. The price on
the dust jacket is quoted in pounds, not Canadian dollars.

The reason this surprised me is that, from the Chapters.ca website I
was under the impression that Bloomsbury editions were rather more
expensive than the Raincoast editions, and I consciously ordered the
latter to save a few bucks.  I'm pretty sure they charged me at the
Raincoast rate, too.  C'est la vie!
