Is the deluxe illustrated edition signed by the artist? Wondering why the price is so high?

Nice. I still need to find a good (cheapish) copy of HP1 UK, 3rd or 4th print and a 1st US trade.Originally Posted by sharki69
I was able to find these at my local used bookstore for $10 each VG+ and just couldn't pass...
First edition 10th printing
Need to start somewhere...

I am curious on the same. I was really excited to see it until I saw the price.
Also if they do another set where they get through book 1 & 2 in leather with gilding and stop I am going to be pissed.
I think come the 1st I will probably order it though.
I don't think it is signed by the illustrator. I also am unsure if they are planning on making a set of the illustrated editions. I think the first one would make a nice Xmas gift for the Potter fan.I am curious on the same. I was really excited to see it until I saw the price.

I have a copy. It's not bad for the price. Just a slipcased deluxe type book that was released after the new trade editions came out. Not sure if they're planning on doing the whole series?So what is this book then?

It looks like Amazon has the deluxe illustrated edition up for pre-order - http://smile.amazon.com/Harry-Potter...er+illustrated
On the fence about this one - it looks nice, but $200 for a gift edition is a bit steep.
"making this new edition the perfect gift for a child being introduced to the series, as much as for the dedicated fan."
Gotta love the Amazon blurb - yep I'll pay $200 for a book to introduce my sone to the series...
"A rare opportunity and a luxurious reading experience."
And two ribbon markers, not one, but two
Just pre-ordered it.
But I don't feel right about the price it all.
Might cancel again....
sk
they are really testing the completists out there. One says philosophers stone and one says sorcerer's... who will order both...
Has anyone ever seen the UK 1st go up for sale?

"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King
