The OED online is free in most parts of the English-speaking world with a library card, and with its advanced search capabilities and historical thesaurus linked from every definition it is a far more powerful reference tool than the printed version. That said, you can still purchase all 20 volumes for USD $1100, or the one-volume compact edition (with magnifying glass) for USD $420.
If you are dead set on paper and not interested in words that stopped being used before Shakespeare, the 2-volume Shorter Oxford English Dictionary is excellent and will meet your needs. You can get the 1993 printing (don't go any earlier) for very cheap. Ask beforehand to be sure the bookseller is selling you both volumes!
