hi all,
i am looking for one of the 500(?) HC super deluxe copies of the legend of Sigurd and Gudrun. I feel such gratitude towards the efforts of Christopher and would love to have his signature in such a beautiful book. If anyone has a tip about how best to go about this or is sitting on more than one copy and is looking to sell one please let me know and I hope I can make a nice offer.
edit: i see this ended up under 'important'. That was not my intention.

Keep an eye on eBay. There was one up on ebay yesterday, but looks like it sold. I guess that is the current going rate. Worth saying that an imperfect copy sold recently for more like £250. Fair value is probably somewhere in the middle.

Just saw one pop up on ebay this morning. Abit high starting bid imo but maybe the seller would be open to lower offers.

1000 GBP is way too much IMO, but someone will pay it...just watch.

I agree - I think it is too much for S&G, which just isn't as nice an edition as CoH (I personally prefer the content, mind - I'm just talking about the physical nature of the two editions). Given the current market, I expect it will get the asking price - or close to - even if the seller has to re-list it a couple of times.

Inspired by Stu's confessional mood (silmarillion): I admit to buying this for £800 which I guess is the market price for one of these in new condition. The seller was fair-minded and straight talking.

Glad you were able to get one! It's only worth what someone's willing to pay, so if you like it enough, great. Enjoy!
