I wonder how close it will get to the £1600 that the current owner paid for it a couple of months ago. Been steadily dropping from that absurd £6000(ish) price that it was initially listed at...
(FWIW, as I'm watching it, I got an offer of a discounted BIN of £2100 a week or so ago).

This was a prev ebay sale at around £1600 , might help ?
I have used a voucher before and it comes off the sale value. There was max amount i think , cant recall what it was though
Same copy as this one, just getting resold by the buyer who is a dealer.
Offered to watchers for £1,500.
This is all quite interesting as it is showing just how tiny the market for something like this is unless the condition/price combination are just right.

The book is finally sold. My last offer from the seller was £ 1,400.
Perhaps it was even less...

I guess two sets of sales of this item in the same price region hopefully show what something like this is worth (and hopefully means to one will give 8K DF for his copy with the doctored jacket)
I’ve made two “best offer” purchases in the past month that eBay does not record publicly - the API data and website both show the asking price not the accepted price.
Frustrating for tracking actual purchase trends...

Are you sure, because that wasn't the asking price in this case (it was £1,895)? My experience is that is seems to sometimes be correct and sometimes not. Either way, I think we probably have an idea roughly where it ended up (say 1,200 - 1,500).

Hope all those sellers with overpriced copies of similar quality but lacking jackets are paying attention...
