I'm baffled -- that isn't even making an effort.

Wow, there's a real beaut!

"Some wear and marks to cover."

Why even bother listing this?

That is one of the worst looking copies of The Silmarillion I think I've ever seen.

Lol. This is true performance.
amazing.

And it's Book Club.

£10 book on eBay plus a signature from a chap whose scribble is notoriously easy to acquire at any of the many events he attends. The price seems a bit steep....

When I saw this listing I actually thought it might br for one of the deluxe signed editions or something. Then I'm reading the detail & thinking "...am I reading this correctly?"

If this is a standard Hb + AL signature then I don't know quite what to say. That price is shameful.

Yeah, Peter Harrington has had a few eye-raising listings of late. He should really know better - there is fine line between trying to get a premium price and looking for a mug to exploit.
