I just got 6 volumes of Naruto from a friend and I really fell inlove with reading :D and I saw commercials on the back of it for Shaman king which used to be one of my favorited animated shows . so I thought about picking it up sometime - but I've read that it got reprinted in the last few years . but I'm not sure if the reprinted version got publuished in English too? or - did it only get a fan translation ? also - what does "reprinted" mean? re-drawn ? and my last question - where I can find an online preview for it ?
Thanks but reading from wikipedia isn't helping :P Because it got me confused too .

Anyone who's ACTUALLY familliar with comic book stores and Shonen Jump ?
 
"During the Jump Festa 2008, Shueisha announced a kanzenban reprint of the entire series. The series is called Shaman King Kanzen-Ban, or Perfect Edition. This release reprinted the entire series in 27 volumes complete with new clear image overlays on the covers while concluding with the never-before-published "true ending." They are a total of sixteen new chapters which expanded the chapters' numbers to 300. It also added two chapters showing the fight between Marco and Luchist Lasso which was skipped in the original publication.[5] The first volume was released on March 3, 2008, and volume 27 was published on April 3, 2009,"(wikipedia).

The original series was 32 volumes, and lacked the true ending. The reprint, perfect edition, has more to offer and is definitely worth reading. Sadly I do not think there is an english release. But if you wish to read it, you could always find manga scans of the series online.

Hoped this helped.
