Hi guys - I'm new. Collector in Melbourne, Australia. 'Chronic' introduced me to this site after I viewed his excellent new site (www.collectingbukowski.com).
I was on a phone hook up to PBA and wanted to bid on a few items but was blown out of the water!
Bidders were paying more than what the items are listed for on sites like ABE. And that doesn't take into account the 20% buyer premium!
Interesting, as previous PBA results have offered some relative bargains for Bukowski books.
Items like the Black Sparrow first editions seem to be drying up as they are placed in permanent collections. But I thought the prices paid at auction were a little on the high side.
Good luck to everyone.
