No offense, but a little sketchy way of selling...  You should also post this in the classified section, not here.

I don't have an Ebay Seller account so I don't know of any other way to sell it. To sell it over eBay I need to sell at least 10 items before this and God knows when that will happen. Suggestions?

Also Escrow is not sketchy, I'm not paid until the buyer's says it's OK.

Fair enough on the escrow.  I haven't used that service before, but it does look like a legitimate way to buy/sell.

People around here are a little skeptical when a rare item shows up all of a sudden and there is very little information known about the seller, or the item.

eBay finally lifted my limit so I'm selling my copies. If anyone's willing, here's the link:

I'm guessing the market for these has fallen drastically.  From the posts above, you've been trying to sell this for over a year without success.

Might I suggest auctioning one of them off with a low opening bid and/or reserve and see where it goes?  That will tell you where the market is for these.

I would agree with Mars' prior assertion.  The value of these is probably not where it was for prior copies that sold.  You won't know until you lower the price to the point where there is interest.  Auctions are the best way to do so.

Good luck, hope you sell them.

I'll sell them one day. In the meantime they'll wait for their new owner inside the bank's safe.

It looks like the going rate has fallen to about $565:

That one is pretty damaged, at least in my estimation. That's why it went so low.

The Planescape Sketchbook arrived today (it took a leisurely tour on its way from France, it appears).  I'm not a Planescape collector, but I put in a bid at a price that I thought stood a chance at winning . . . and got it for quite a bit less than that.  :D

As shown in the picture, the cover has some spine creases, and rubbing, but it's not bad at all.  On the Acaeum scale, the cover is VG/VG+.  As for the interior, the binding is tight, the pages are pristine, the staples clean.  I'm quite happy with the purchase.   8)

Well it is certainly not perfect but for $150 I really couldn't say no. It would be nice to know how many of these were printed.

Very few, and that was a very good price.

The speculation was around 1000 of them were produced.  Doubtful they were all sold.  The pricing peaked a few years back and has dropped quite a bit since then.  A few people sold their copies back then, and probably saturated the market for a while.

I put a new, signed, sketched-on planescape sketchbook up on eBay for any interested Planescape junkies out there...

Argh, I almost got this copy. Someone topped my bid at the last second :)
