It kind of looks like a sticky note instead of a bookplate. I hope someone makes an offer, but it looks funny in the picture.

It is firmly affixed. I posted numerous high resolution pics. I could have reduced the image size significantly, or changed the lighting, but I don't want anyone (even a casual ebay buyer) to be confused.
IMO the book is worth $149.19+. The market will dictate.
I gain nothing (other than the donation total increases) by conducting the auction.
Oh well. Certainly nothing to stress about.
