Alright, now I'm ticked off: found this on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Neil-Gaiman-...0AAOSwnHZYmgQa :, which is indeed a US publisher issued signed on special tip sheet- right after receiving the regular, signed on title page copy I ordered from The Strand. You would think that between all of us Gaiman collectors gathered here- experts, it has to be said- someone would've been made aware that these were happening before a week after publication. This drives me nuts. I don't have $30 to throw away on an edition I felt cornered into buying by a complete lack of information by either the author or the publisher on just what was being offered. To make matters worse, it's looking like the UK Foyles signed on special sheet, black page stained, and stamped "Hammer" boards- is the best, most collectible edition now anyway. Would've loved to have known what my options were before everything went to $60+ $20 shipping on ebay.
Rant over.
