    It's a very nice edition and the art looks great, but I'm still a sucker for Quentin Blake's artwork in the Folio Society edition.

    When it comes to Suntup offerings — and I’m strictly an AE buyer — I gauge my decision on whether or not I’d be excited to some degree to find a nice hardcover edition of it (from another publisher) at my local bookstore…it’s the only way to take the obvious Suntup allure and/or FOMO out of the equation and make sure I’m buying the book for the right reason. I couldn’t imagine any excitement about finding a copy of ANIMAL FARM, so I passed. No denying it’s a beautiful production, though.

    Yep. Animal Farm. I really enjoy this story and did not pass on it. My wallet is not happy.

    I think all editions are fabulous and I am very happy with being able to purchase an A/E.

    Looks like today's announcement was Animal Farm. Love the artwork; however, this is an easy pass for me (especially at that price). Was hoping for something else; however, my wallet is happy!

    Best of luck. There is no way I could afford the numbered train but this sounds like a good deal.

    Long story short I’m hoping to get matching numbers for Hannibal with my Silence of the Lambs but staying on the rights train has become a bit difficult for me.

    My request is that whoever buys the rights sells me their copy of Hannibal with the matching number. I can get you a copy if you want one in your collection (so it would just be a trade). If you were to jump off before then I just ask that you offer to sell the rights back. (Although if it doesn’t come out this year I’ll probably give up.)

    You're right. I wasn't looking to make money on it, so I put it up for $900 including shipping. It sold in literally less than 30 seconds. Cost to me was $779, so by the time I pay to ship it again, I might come out ahead by $80 or so.
    Congrats on the quick sale!

    I can't decide whether to buy the numbered or let it go. I'd never read the book, so I grabbed a copy after work and I'm 70% into it (kindle). I do like it, but do I really want a $750 copy? Well, I have until Saturday to decide.

    Agreed. The numbered is stunningly gorgeous, the lettered significantly less so. That said, I passed on all editions of this title.

    I hadn't heard of this before and it sounds really interesting. Thanks for mentioning it.

    Let the Right One In and 1984 are two others that I think are better looking numbered editions.

    I'm sure the glue/material used to secure the Scrabble tiles is really strong, but I can't help but picture those falling off... :-/
