Candidate for worst ever facsimile dustwrapper?

I think this one is quite funny, though not to helpful in what you might get for your $100.

What's actually going on here?!

That's in pretty amazing condition, from the photos. That would be my guess as to what is driving the bidding.

Still seems a bit steep(?), especially given the relatively depressed market. I have a copy that is actually a bit better than that one (that one on eBay has a bit of bumping to the head and the tail of the spine and the top-stain has faded a little), and I only paid 25 pounds for mine from a book-dealer on Abe. That was ten years (or more) ago, I suppose.

How can anyone really see how good that jacket is with the protective jacket cover? It might not be that good when you get it front of you. Either way, I think the price is stupidly high, given, as Stu says, the current market. I've got plenty in this kind of condition...
