I guess we'll just disagree on this, though you have your pricing all wrong. You can buy the whole Spanish series (100 lessons), for example, brand new as downloads for $359 from Pimsleur Audio for example (I'm currently downloading them from the iTunes Store, for slightly more, as I find it more convenient). You can even buy just a few lesons at a time. 5 lessons is not $100 but about $30.
Their CDs prices are also nowhere close to what you talk about. Heck, Greek I is sold brand new on AMAZON for $125 right now and both available levels for $300. The 500 words is per level not for all 3 levels. I've actually asked the publisher that question a few years back. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

It depends on how serious you are (in reply to OP) but I'd tae a look at the Linguaphone course if you want a good solid introduction to the language!
Although it has no audio a good, solid, traditional style textbook approch to the language is Dr. Kypros Tofallis' 'A Textbook Of Modern Greek' (ISBN 0 - 905313 -16 - X) published by the Greek Institute in London (which also offers various levels of exam I believe). Good luck with it all! 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Thank you for all the suggestions so far everyone, I will try and check some of them out.
I am kind of getting excited to get started learning this language but I am waiting for December so I can try and get a little bit more better with my Spanish. By the way, does anyone know of any online Greek radio stations or podcasts if there are any? So I can listen to the language more for now? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Is there a "Greek with Ease" course i.e. English-based?. There's certainly "Le Nouveau Grec sans Peine"

Seems like there may not be :-(
It's strange, considering they already translated this book to German... 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||
