Nothing to see here!Ok, I really can't come up with anymore of these stupid things...

I took a flyer on Boys in the Valley and really enjoyed it. I bought Gothic as I want to read more from the author. I will admit to being a little surprised that the publisher went with a limit of two considering the limitation and the buzz around the author, I think one per customer would have been a better choice.

The price gave me pause. I was hoping it would be in the $50-60 range. $85 made me hesitate. Regret over passing on BOYS IN THE VALLEY pushed me over the edge.Twitter: https://twitter.com/ron_clinton

As an FYI there is a limited run of slipcases* for Boys in the Valley being produced. See below.

Plus by not buying I'm then essentially getting the copy of GOTHIC I have on pre-order for free. Or that's one way I justify passing on it, anyhow...Twitter: https://twitter.com/ron_clinton

Understood and makes sense. Now I can use your logic and say I bought the slipcase and that's why I didn't buy Gothic! LOL LOL
In reality I missed out on Gothic by about 10 minutes and probably/likely would still have bought this slipcase.

I'm sure it'll be very nice and well worth it to those who opt for a copy, but in my marginally successful effort to slow down buying to those books I absolutely Need and, concurrently, selling off some books that I absolutely don't Need, expensive accessories that-I-don't-Need-but-it-would-be-nice, like this slipcase, just don't pass muster anymore.

Feel the same way. Would love to have the slipcase, but cannot seem to justify it in my head. Hard for me to pull the trigger on a slipcase that costs as much as the book itself. Hopefully, I won't regret it too much as there have been some slipcases that I've passed on that I wish I would have purchased such as the one from SubPress for NOS4A2.
