These were a dime a dozen at the time. Small print run?

 

Astronomically small

 

 

They (the ASM 546 "Book Market") do seem consistently available on ebay. (shrug)

Define consistent? How many 10? 20?

 

I am not looking for an argument here, just saying I look for all types of

hard to find variants for both fun and profit.

 

I haven't seen this book in person ever. Not an a shop or a convention. I am not saying its not available its just difficult to find. I just thought I would share a book not seen very often.

Not looking for an argument either. Tough variants are my thing too.

 

Glad you were able to find a copy that you like. Congrats. (thumbs u

Argument??

 

Hundreds were available on eBay when released. I just don't remember the estimated print run then.

... And then PM me for pressing :whistle:

 

Don't think you could press that and improve it much.

 

Bingo, those books aren't pressable, stock is the cardboard type, and you can't get enough pressure on the corners to get anything out. Good price though

 

FWIW, got a few in, they pressed out really well. Gonna grade them now.

 

Really?

I got two and one didn't even have the corner ding. :takeit:

Yep, graded 9.8 too!

Both of the copies I was sent were dinged up. One is pretty bad, the other probably a 9.2.

For those that aren't aware...stiffer cardboard covers CAN be pressed (Enormous, DKIII, etc)...they just have to be pressed carefully, and they don't respond as well.

 

You can EASILY destroy a cardboard cover beyond redemption.
