*meh*. $49 isn't much better, really...

(You'd have to negotiate on shipping, too, since <abebooks> now stuffs foreign customers).

Sigh  :cry:  Perhaps when the seller will see the light and understand that $ 65 are too much, perhaps he/she will lower the price...

(Is definitely surprisingly me, that auction!)

Me too, in a very pleasant way. There is one countryman of mine whom seems deadly bent on winning the books  but Aneoth keeps outbidding him.

Presume no-one else had a copy to offer at any "reasonable price"?

Not yet, it seems. But I'm patient - I waited for years to recover a copy of Game Inventor's Handbook by Steve Peek...

I read some chapters of it and I must say it's a good book, very useful in understanding this crazy games    and explaining the various game systems of the age. More, the author is not victim of "I see all, I know all" mindset and admits - in writing "I haven't played this game so I can't really have a complete review, but my best guess is...". I really appreciate that

He is auctioning signed copies on eBay.  One just sold, and one is ending in two days:
