Seriously!? A joke right? This isn't some rare first print novel for christ's sake. You could buy a motorcycle for that much!!
If it sells for that much or even over 200 dollars I would be shocked.

It's not even signed.


I really don't think I'd sell my copy for $1200 tho.

looks legit, even if unbelievable.
The Original Poster here is the Craigslist advertiser. I don't see any hint of irony, tongue-in-cheek, jocularity, and its not as much funny as, well, ridiculous. (Proof being alla y'all ridiculing it...)
If it was April 1st, we'd know it's a joke, but maybe that's what things go for in L.A.?
You know, Bradd Pitt might buy it.

They, shortly after the book went out of print, were listed at $3,995.00 on Amazon. I printed the ads . . which are funny but I doubt they sold many.

When I got word that supplies were dwindling in Europe and the USA I bought up the last couple unopened cases for posterity. Figured they'd make funny gifts when the grandkids hit college.

If they do sell for $3,995.00 each a case will cover precisely the first year tuition at Yale or Columbia.

I'm not banking on it . . .

Wishing there was an eBook version. I don't own a coffee table, so cannot use coffee table books.

There is definitely a PDF version of the book floating around the internet.
