Vinyl grading should be adopted for books imo, similar to comics of course but for records it works very well when used correctly. I would remove the VG+ and possibly NM though.

Ugh. It sold. I'm not sure it would even be possible to rebind this effectively, given the cut-down gutter.

So, is it a bubble if people keep buying into it? Seems nuts.

Bubbles can keep inflating for a long time. Though quite what is happening across the board is a bit uncertain at the moment. Inflation is pretty high in many sectors.

Anyone want a first US Hobbit that is basically in two pieces with pages torn out for 1700 USD?

So much WTF. Does someone want to explain to rare-book-cellar (yes, him again), what "near fine" means.

I really hope that is a fake sale, because otherwise someone threw away a lot of money on something genuinely worthless.
