Where can I buy an English translation of the Four Vedas?

Where can I buy a hardcover English translation of the Four Vedas? Not looking for a multivolume set with tons of scholarly of commentary, but more the English translation of the four Vedas in one bound book.

I recently received "The Holy Vedas" by Debroy, but after a bit of skimming, I found at the end of each Veda phrases like "we cannot hope to reproduce them all (hymns)," "we have not reproduced the text in its entirty," "as you will have realised, there are many parts that we have skipped," etc.

Now I feel like I was cheated, expecting the entirety of the Vedic texts, but that's not what I got.

Can Anybody Help?

    Go to a New Age book shop. They usually sell all the ancient spiritual texts.

    It is hard to give you more specific advice without knowing what country you are in.
