Speaks for itself: "Now virtually unobtainable,out of print rare collectors item. "

- see?

And - they say, 'Thanks for your valuable time', too - so, polite as well.

Why precisely has this already got a bid? Three days before the auction closes?

Don't you know wellinghall?! --the Billing printer copies are very, very rare...

BH

Side stepping the price & strange combo --how can something which is "a little worse for wear" be "as good as they come!"?

Again, wellinghall, these are really now very collectable --& triple figure prices, for these prized paperbacks, are quite common. Keep up...

Why would anyone bid on a set of Book Club reprints, one of which is falling apart?
