[zoom man]

I'll be in Cleveland in a couple months. I'll go by Old Erie and see if he exists and if he is there.

Let us know Bill....

 

[HenryChinaski]

yeah, what would you let that go for eric?

 

[theeffects]

watch out for 'theeffects' bidding against you
He hit on some of my Buk stuff
And bid it up stupid

Hey, that's not nice!
:)
It's funny I started posting a few days ago and I came across my buyer name/me.
I guess in fairness, it bugs me when others RAMP up prices on items I bid on as well...

 

[zoom man]

Damn, mine isn't the only copy in the world

Got the book today...

Wow, now here it is!

(I have to look up at that Paget Press edition of Barfly,... does it just sometimes happen that they neglect to mention an entire specific edition?)
Will be interesting to see what this goes for....

 

[bospress.net]

shhh..... How do you expect me to get this at a price that I can afford if you tell people?

just kidding....

Bill

and here it is... again

Not mentioned in the biblio at all.
How odd.

 

[nymark]

It's even more odd than you think! These two copies that are available at auction are both LETTERED copies! There are only 26 of those vs. the 200 signed copies. That two of the more scarce editions would come on the market simultaneously is truly bizarre. If I were Scott, I would have first checked to see if any other lettered copies were currently being auctioned. He diluted the market by throwing up another copy.

 

[ROC]

No...its exactly as odd as I think :D
Yeah, it would have been a smarter business move to check the competition out before listing.

 

[xogget]

If i were listing one of those there's no way i'd think to check how many other LETTERED editions were up!

And here's another copy...
Man, I'd kill to be at this auction.
Has anyone bought from them before?

I'm trying to register for the auction
(not for this particular book)
And my computer is telling me there's a security certificate error
And to proceed at my own risk?!

 

[chronic]

Ah hell... live large and go for this one instead.

The drawing in this one is my favorite bit from the book.

 

[mjp]

Huh, I thought USC had those drawings. In their inventory is a "manuscript for a cartoon" for Adventures of Clarence Sweetmeat, but that's definitely the drawing from the book in the auction.
