Not up to your usual standard, I expected some sheet music. ;D Of course you hear that all the time but for once this is REAL. In fact, I can bet you my life this is real. I'm sure it is for my sister. ;D

i have the entire collection scanned including all the original soundtrack and special releases like final fantasy for four hands and others but it's taken (still in the process too) me a while to buy all the books minus three out of print ones (used are 300 dollars or more average) and i am waiting a bit for xi 2nd ed. (there is a piano collection for each installment beginning with IV out of print, V out of print, VI out of print, VII, VIII, IX, X, X-2, XI 1st edition, XI 2nd edition, and XIII, final fantasy I,II, and III and XII did not have collections arrangemets but only soundtracks, same for XIV which i have purchases but again not a piano collect just basic score with symbols so you can improv and fill in, XIII-2 will probably hit this year too but no announcement, later this year with the Piano Opera series for I/II/II and IV,VI, and VI released in two volumes one in march another in June i believe).
they're super expensive, i mean a few hundred dollars later! (about 50 dollars give or take a few for each one) even when i had money for one or two they were sometimes out of stock, i don't have all my hard copies scanned and uploaded and were talking HOURS of work to get it all up on my mediafire (several hundred pages worth).
almost certainly they were on megaupload which but that site has been shut down for copyright reasons and i certainly couldn't load mine here for fear of the same thing (i would mention that when i obtain a scan be it entire or partial i do it with the intent to preview before purchase which i have done with my growing collection of books i buy from a dealer in japan), let me see if i can find a fan source where either somone or a collection of someones has done the work and they haven't been closed down for CR infringment (this is all modern music and protected after all) and i can probably direct you there directly via personal message. i won't post a link publically from pianostreet to such a source.
i can probably help with a few pieces or bits for more than a few but the entire entire collections will have be either bought (which i really reccommend again the books are great, high quality scores and are just very nicely packaged etc.) or found by other creative 'preview before you buy' means. let me see what i can do and i'll get back to you in a few days.
i won't have the piano opera score (which is an anniversary release for a piano collections style treatment of final fantasy i ii and iii and later a re release of iv v and vi) for several weeks but if i can scan a page or two so she can preview it i'll let you know come april or so. same with XIII-2 which I would be shocked if we don't get a release at all or certainly in 2012.
edit:
i've attached pix of my scores so you can see what they look like they include v7 to x-2 and xiii, i'm saving for a copy of xi 2nd edition but image link below for ref (first edition is very rare and included pieces not in 2nd but i haven't seen one in a very long time also xi has some nice duets i.e. 4 hands works).
to purchase i highly reccommend the source I use anything not on the site listing you can email the owner and they will bend over backwards for you to obtain it and ship to you, they are very reasonable with prices i.e. some ebay sellers in japan for the popular ones like vii,x, and xiii are close to double what he charges

fyi still looking for you, it seems the sites i visited a long time ago when i was previewing these before purchasing are shut down/have been closed for copyright violations? although I believe in viewing before buying perhaps people abused it and just dl'd for free and never paid for real scores...?
either way i'll pm you if i come across anything. in the mean time since the nature of your request is so broad (i.e. a collecctions complete set is probably similar to asking for a mozart sonatas band i or similar other large compliation of multiple scores so providing such a large volume of music as i aluded to above is problematic at best for me right now), if you have a piece or two or narrow it down to a single volume you and sis' would like to see before you perhaps order (if still in print ), then PM me or repost the resquest and I'll see what i can do.
also the PO released and initially is getting good reviews from a listening stand point. scores arrive in a few weeks:

Didn't thought about it, but I'll do that!

don't mention it wasn't barking at you per say, it's just that i'd hate for pianostreet to get in troube, another member let me know that the publishers can give the sites hell if they host copyrighted material in violation, the entire ff pc and ost is an extensive body of wrk as is a supremely expensive collection to build (i am still saving and buying and am several hundred dollars in and still have some scores missing!),
with the exception of sharing the out of print works that go for hundreds if you can even find them and a publisher not really concerned with even offer a print on demand option, i believe we need to buy these or square enix, yamaha, and the composers and arrangers have no business reason or incentive to help get this music composed and published. thanks for helping JL out i just don't want to see a series of music i love so much be slow to come to market do to revenue losses

just got this in, fan arrangement non-copyright of a really nice effort to transcribe the title theme music for the just released xiii-2 (which i like the music very much, i am highly anticipating a piano collections for this since xiii was really nice and many of the harmonies and compositional style carried over to the new score/ost withought sound too derivative). i digress...
nice little piece, nothing earth shattering but pretty and until yamaha puts out an release date or officical score announcement it's all we've got for now. i don't mind publiclly sharing fan art since it's not commerical and i believe not copyright restricted, apologies if i'm mis undersstood.
[ Invalid YouTube link ] note transcription won't follow viddy exactly at the end the piece is extended this little pdf givesyou the main thematic content good improvers witha decent ear should be able to run with it to the end though.

nevermind, sorry.

You can find 5 to 11 here:

as stated above please try to abstain from linking directly to downloadable 'copyrighted' material, you're free to make your own judgement and send it directly via PM to the OP but the site can get introuble with the intellectual property owners for that sort of thing. feel free to link directy to sites where it can be purchased but i'd kindly as for you to modify your post (i did not quote your link) and remove said link and send it to the OP if you feel you must.
many thanks. 49410.
edit-no worries man.
btw,
www.squaresound.com is another great place to buy from esp if you are in the US, only online retailer i know of that isn't in japan so the order turn around is days vs weeks, price is about in line with what you'd pay to import so they're more than fair.

yes it's quite easy to find I purchased my copy a couple days after it released in japan And had it mailed and got it just a couple weeks or so later , surprised you have issues finding a retailer or reseller since it's the most recent release so it's super simple purchase using sites in english that take credit cards or PayPal etc.

For all the lost souls who stumble upon this post and need a bit of final fantasy piano sheet music in their life hit me up on reddit or twitter.
My handle is dagadbm.
