It was a great price. Perhaps some people were wary because of the loss of gold gilding on the page block. I never asked for images as I already have a copy and was hoping someone here got a great price on the holy grail.Originally Posted by Shannon
I was thinking about it but alas - I already have one on order from David
Oh man I was slow on that. Congratulations whoever got this.
I made an inquiry and was ready to pull the trigger, so I sent a PM but someone beat me to it. Congrats to whoever got it.
OMG
"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
At the tender age of 40 I find myself studying again and the required textbooks turn out to be pretty expensive. So I wish to sell some books to raise $$ for other books!

Introduction by Patrick McGrath; Illustrated by David Ho
THE MONK
Centipede Press, 2011.
Deluxe edition, limited state, #111/200 numbered copies signed by Patrick McGrath and David Ho. A new and unread copy; discounted from the list price ($175) with a bit of waviness to the pages (my own copy has this as well), and a bit of light edge wear to the jacket from the slipcase. A beautiful book.
From the Publisher:
Matthew Lewis’s The Monk is one of the most notorious Gothic novels ever published. It is here presented in an ultimate format, probably the best presentation this powerful novel has ever had, with full color original artworks by David Ho, classic paintings of Hell from the Middle Ages, a bonus short story, "The Midnight Embrace," and a fine and penetrating original introduction by esteemed novelist Patrick McGrath.
Despite being published over 200 years ago, The Monk is surprisingly readable, its story of moral downfall and sordid depictions of greed, lust, and corruption all-too-relevant today.
In an oversize 8 × 12 format with a full cloth binding, color image only on the front board, full color dustjacket on Mohawk stock, cloth slipcase, signature page, translucent overlays, full-color interiors, and other goodies.
$125 shipped to all US addresses.
Those are great buys!

Hi,
a quick note that I have some gift/artist editions books for sale on eBay.
Need the money right now and looking to sell duplicates of books I have in many formats.
I have a bunch of Tartarus Press too and others that might be of interest for members here. There will be more in the next weeks but I don't want to have to ship a ton of books in a day or two :-)
http://www.ebay.com/sch/jeromelucpaulin/m.html?item=111476061235&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2 562
Keep in mind that I'm in Canada and I know that shipping cost can be a factor but I offer deals on combine shipping.

$15 for international isn't bad at all. In reality it's closer to $25 but sometimes you need to charge less than what it costs to even get a single bid. Even then the number of angry "It's not $10 to ship a book!!!!", "Why no media mail?", "Your shipping rates suck" messages from some butt-head who can't even read item description properly is staggering.
Make your listing on here more attractive. List what King books you have and starting price. I know some members were looking for artist editions of DT books recently. Mentioning they start at $60 and shipping is $15 will get you more hits.
Jerome is a very good seller, I recently purchased gift editions of SOD 1 and Desperation from him for donation to next year's Haven Foundation Fundraiser.
In the US, international shipping (on eBay) is not as intuitive as it should be, but it isn't impossible, either. Most sellers stay with specifying a standard cost, but you also have the option to enter the (boxed) weight of the object, choose your shipping method (i.e., Priority International), and eBay will calculate the price that is displayed to the person viewing the listing based on THEIR geography. Easy enough to do this on domestic shipping as well.
We have standard weights for our different sized boxes and typical packing material; we then weigh the book itself and combine the two, enter that amount in eBay and you are all set. The same, if you are selling outside of eBay, as long as you know the weight, you can provide a custom shipping quote on request by mocking it up on the USPS (or equivalent) website. --True, that may shift the outrage to "No way that book weighs that much!?!", but you can only do the best that you can do.
