Recently I sold a copy of Pagan Publishing's Graven Images for about a third of what I thought it might go for - the winner got a real bargain - they come up about once every three years... But then sometimes auctions go higher than you think. I think over time it usually evens up.

Back in 2005/6 there were very few people who differentiated between editions and printings if the likes of Tegel and CSIO, and prices were high right across the board. Prices seem to polarise now towards first printings and/or rare printings.I had expected it to exceed $60 and possibly reach $75, but I haven't watched prices on the JG biggies in a while.

I think the days of 1st printings of Tegel Manor hitting $90 or more regularly are over.
