The only reason I am rating this so high is because I am not deriving its value in comparison to the original but instead I am deriving the value of this publishing as if it were not a reprint.
Now with that being stated, internally you can expect this book to be the same as the original in terms of content.The production value of this books, however, is fantastic. The cover is both aesthetically and tactilely pleasing, to an extreme degree. This may be due to the age of my original copy but even the pages seems to be a higher quality, they feel thicker and the gloss is much more alluring. The art within the book is amazing and there is a lot of it, however this is the same case as the original publishing.
Now to the subject of the functionality of the book, if you find your players bringing multiple books to the table just for the spells contained within this book will be of great help. It doesn't contain every spell in the 3.5 universe but it does contain a good percentage of all the spells my players use. Not by design but just by chance.
All in all, if you don't care about how your book looks, (which personally I do it really adds to DM'ing for me) pick up a used copy of the original. This books is well made and worth the price in my opinion.
Oh and as a favor to y'all I'm going to list a shorthand of all the source books for this SpC:
From the Complete series; Adventurer, Arcane, Divine, Warrior.
From other Supplements; Draconomicon, Libris Mortis, Magic of Faerun, Manual of the Planes, Minatures Handbook, Planar Handbook, Players Guide to Faerun, Savage Species, Underdark.
