Yes, I was disappointment at the price I got when I last sold a copy of my guide, but what the hell. Win some, lose some. Either Bill bought it or our friend, theeffects. Maybe I sold copies to both; I don't recall. But I'm glad somebody got a good deal.
IF (a big if) I ever updated it, I would drop the value estimates entirely and expand the bibliographic details. That -- to me -- is much more interesting information. And prices are all over the map these days with eBay. But I'm feeling lazy and probably won't ever update it.
I'd like to read Fogel's intro on how he sold off his collection then tried to rebuy stuff back. I sold off my Buk collection, but never had the dough to replace anything rare, and so now it's a "reading copy" collection of paperbacks and reprints. Same good words, and I enjoy the books as much as when I had the rare editions. I still have a few cool items that escaped the big purge, and those will have to be pried from my dead cold fingers, as they say when they talk about guns.
