Was the RRP £250 for the 1998 Silmarillion? Was it (like Super Deluxe copies now) available for less than this at all? i.e. when HarperCollins discount. Did this happen?

I think the number you were trying to recall was £595...
Stu: The GBP 595 copy was me, and was a "what the hell" purchase as it was my 40th birthday  BH

Aye, you wouldn't have posted it though! You'd just have got on with bidding away...

Only someone who owns a copy of this book would have the cheek to post that auction while it's still running...

The postage situation is just a huge pain in the backside. Postage for items coming over from the US was always something I kept an eye on, but now it's literally stopping me buying anything from overseas. I mean, $25-30-40 to get a book posted over!? This is just far, far too much money. I'm looking at sellers asking for postage of £20+ for pamphlets & the like. It's just not affordable anymore.
As for Amazon --I intend to buy as little as possible from them (direct) from now on. (I already bought very little from them anyway.) I only bought two books on Amazon last year & haven't bought anything from them this year. BH
