Eh - something's going to get us. We're all dead men walking.

Women have it so much tougher than men. For God's sake, these wiggly things come out of them that are ALIVE - and they have to FEED them!!! With their OWN body!!!!!!

What do men have to worry...

You guys are acting like a colonoscopy is some big deal - I mean, for cryng out loud, it's not like they stick a vibrating microscope up your ass and dig around your lower intestine while you're...

Hm. Not sure it would normally sell for less than the normal s/l edition. You got a very good deal!

What was the #70 Artist Edition of The Talisman listed for?

It's sold, but no price...

way to go!

I scored one of those too...well actually kind of....

A couple of weeks ago, I was photographing some of my books for a project one of our members here is doing... and I ran across...

I'm not a motivated seller, but I'm not a buyer either - basically, I had a lot of fun collecting back in the day, but I got bored once EVERY book got a s/l edition, and it no longer felt all that...

Correct - that's actually the set I was referring to! It was #73, #71 and #71.

A few years back I sold my Plant for $8K - matched set - same recipient, 2 of 3 w/same number. I had actually bought it from Betts a few years back (I think during his first big major 'collection...

Not strictly true. If a "high end" item went on sale at Betts it would be sold immediately, whatever the price was.

Not everything sales...

Well - she obviously IS a collector if she has a catalogue number and personalized library stickers...so I'm surprised it's not in better shape. On the other hand, maybe this was her placeholder copy...

David DID come through unscathed, right?

Hey David - you came through this storm okay? It occurred to me that Fairfield was one of the areas that got a little pummeled.

Exactly! And if you make all your buying decisions based on that philosophy, you probably won't ever own a book! Haha...

It's a great price for Betts...not a great price for the buyer, who probably could have done better.

On the other hand, that's the whole point...it's a book that very rarely shows up, and the...

I guess it was listed for $7500? I seem to recall a recent thread where anything abouve $5K was regarded as unlikely to impossible...so, good price? I think not...

But - that's absolutely true...

I don't know...they sold because the price was right and people jumped on them right away. Yeah, a couple people might have paid $1500, or $1300, but all of them? You never know.

If you overprice...

Haha...yeah, it was a Freudian slip, right?

These are pricey - but that's what collectible art costs. I am not an art or remarque collector, so I really don't know if this is the...

I love all the know-nothings who blather about Irene being a "bust," I guess because it didn't wipe Boston off the map...people have been without power a lot of places for days...Vermont's a...
