Abord the Yorikke!
I had watched Fear and Loathing several times, Gonzo, Breakfast with Hunter Thompson and finally bought my first Thompson book, although I had read excerpts here and there, and was quite amazed by his style and the person.
I paid 48. for a first ed. fourth printing of the hard cover version. Is that a fair price? The dust jacket is not great but there. The book itself is in good condition except but a small bumped corner. I am not sure why I did'nt buy a real cheap copy, but now it is done. I thought that I had bought a first ed. first printing, but not so, if it matters. The seller was not clear about the printing. I have no expertise in the matter. Did I pay too much?

Thanks, James. I think my copy is pretty clean. It has the black top edge. It is not a book club edition. I still don't know if I paid too much, but with that information, I can look it up.

Ah, I should have suspected that, sorry.
But I wonder why I didn't get one of those emails? I've dropped a bundle at that joint in the last couple months.
I would have owed you money, yes.

I didn't get an email either.
I think maybe they are trying to entice registered users that haven't bought anything/much yet?

Maybe it was just a random mailing... Maybe I'm not really all that special.
