Title: Any book collectors here?
Post by: Don Flamenco on May 04, 2008, 02:32:35 PM

Just wondering what are some good sites for buying collectable books.   I'm on the hunt for a 1st print hardcover copy of Wind Up Bird Chronicles.  I also need some advice about buying--I see copies range from ~100, all the way up to $330 for a completely new and mint copy on amazon.  Should I trust that price for a new one or is it a case of "i'm the only guy on amazon with one, so I'm gonna put an unrealistic price up and see if someone bites."  I know this happens since I do it with games sometimes myself ;)

Awesome site. I got the HC of Game Over by David Sheff from that site 4 years ago for $13 shipped.
