One Special Eisner Offering

 

Background: I'm a long-time collector, not a dealer, starting at age 5 in the early '70's with a 20-cents-a-day habit. My eBay feedback is all as a buyer (same name); never sold there and no plans to. I do have a small kudos thread here, having made a handful of purchases from and sales to fellow boardies. I'll attempt to follow what I believe are commonly accepted best practices, based on my reading here and in the rules posting. If I miss something, gentle polite nudges are welcome. Or just kick me in the head. Whatever. I'm easy.

Rules:  

Shipping is included; U.S. Only. If you are outside the U.S., PM me and we will determine actual shipping and any other relevant details.

No HOS, probies, or treacherous villains, please.

PM's welcome of course, but  in the thread trumps all, time stamp rules.

Payment is Money Order or check.

Returns: Sure, just notify me within 3 days of receipt and pay return shipping. Unless of course return is due to my error/something I missed.

Two first editions of Will Eisner's A Contract With God -- the hardcover, hand-signed limited edition, #1287 of 1500, and a paperback first edition as a reading copy as well. Both are nice mid-grade copies, though the paperback appears as if the top of the back cover got wet once, slight waviness and stain.  

$300 for the pair, shipped.

Currently two signed first edition hardcovers are offered on eBay, both from international sellers. One is offered at just over $300; one at about $380. Neither includes a softcover first edition; nor shipping.

One copy is offered within the U.S., $400 with free shipping, but no softcover edition.

Thank you! I agree; I do have myself a later edition reader. Parting with these as I have been offered a chance to make an offer on a couple raw grails that have been sitting in a collection for 30 years.

I should have mentioned, I did offer this in a previous thread, but it was an outlier among esoteric items mostly priced much lower (only 1 other book in that thread was at the $100 mark) so I thought perhaps those who might be interested may have missed it had they only quickly skimmed that thread.

 to remind that this pair is still available and that PM's are welcomed!
