Better not be Stuart selling it ... I leant mine to him over the weekend! ): :rolmao:

Book's good (one of Mears' best), but nowhere near that good!

67 quid plus P&P for an unsigned REPRINT!!!:yikes:

Maybe that's why it's worth so much. Try getting an unsigned 2nd hand Pratchett!!!

Some people really do have more money than ...

That's why I have friends! They queue, I have a pint!

It makes good business sense to buy a box of them and sell 2 a week on ebay. If you could find enough desired but obtainable books you could make a healthy living I suspect.

Problem being they are out of print so there are no new ones to buy hence the astronomical ebay madness kicking in.

Having said that if I ever see another one in a secondhand shop I will be getting it and counting the profit when I rip off the stupid masses on the bay

Another one on ebay, still reasonably priced 'cos no-one's bid on it yet!!

(It's not mine, in fact nothing to do with me - my daughter can prise my copy out of my cold, dead hands when the time comes...)

[tomtom]

whats the difference between that one and the current servival handbook?

Usually about fifty quid :yikes: ): :roll:

This book is usually reckoned to be Mears' best book to date, with some pundits observing that his books are getting more anodyne...

 

[tomtom]

so there is no difference? save the cover and the price tag

 

[familne]

That's outrageous :yikes: :yikes:
