I've seen the limited edition floating around, but if anyone knows where I can purchase a copy of the traycased edition, please let me know! I think there were only 15 copies of this edition produced.
Thanks!
I have photos posted of all of my traycased Centipedes in my thread in the Members' Collections sub-forum if you want to look at them and get an idea. Good luck!

The thing about TSB is that on a per-book basis, it's really not THAT expensive to pick up any titles - even the very early Black Voltage titles, like House of Blood or Mother, don't get too absurd (on the other hand, they rarely come up for sale). However, Paul publishes a LOT of books, so the sheer volume you may end up wanting to acquire is overwhelming.

Originally posted by jeffingoff View PostOh yeah, of course. I just take things to their absurd extremes. At the top is certainly Centipede and Lonely Road and at the bottom is probably Dark Regions. Though I've never heard of Thunderstorm, so thank you for that. I now have a new place to stalk.

Originally posted by RonClinton View PostOh sure, there are a lot of expensive antiquarian genre books out there...I was referring in my post to contemporary small-press genre works, of which lettered Centipedes would almost certainly be among the top in value and desirability, if not *the* top (as opposed to CD, Sub Press, Dark Regions, Thunderstorm, et al).

I think only a few lettered SubPress titles (ASoIaF, Malazan) and a few specific King titles from various presses come close.

I think it's one of those things where there's no reason not to. It gets advertising for a big sale, and if it sells, all the better! The auction houses would definitely work, but they are a bit more risky (as in if it auctions and you don't get what you want) and the house always takes a more than fair share.

Originally posted by jeffingoff View PostI was shocked that they'd sell an item like that on eBay! Aren't there more appropriate venues for a sale at that level?

Thanks Ron! It's one of my favorite books and I was hoping to get the best edition I could find. Plus I love a nice tray case.
