Okay, I think I know what the deal is.  The 700 something one is UK edition.  US edition was originally supposed to be 896 pages.  But it's 870 pages.  If you hold it up next to the other hardcovers, it's slightly taller and slightly longer.  Enough to lose 26 pages?  I don't know, but apparently it is supposed to be 870, not 896.
