speedcake Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 (edited) Yikes. I want one, but not that bad. This might have actually been an interesting item to do a .99 auction with. But its a new seller, looks like. Good luck to them. Edited October 7, 2020 by speedcake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombat Posted October 8, 2020 Author Share Posted October 8, 2020 I would maybe pay $25 for it so I could give it away in the holiday raffle. No way I would pay more than that and I certainly wouldn't want to keep it. I'm not trying to be a snob, but that thing is just brutal. oakman29 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the seller would for sure get more than that in a proper auction. I wouldn't want it, either but 100% guaranteed plenty of people would try for it.

ThothAmon Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Vampi 1 is one of the few books that has eluded all my snipes and trips into basements over the years. Love it but at today’s prices I need for it to fall into my lap for me to get one. I’m partial to Pussycat anyhow. wpbooks01, piper and Randall Dowling 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't make many good decisions, but getting a few copies earlier is one of my best. I got one from Craigslist and one from the boards. Paid about $100 each and they ended up a 5.0 and a 6.5. And it makes my Frazetta signature series much more reasonable given the price increase in the book alone. ThothAmon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedcake Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Man that thing really is a rag and a half. If the interior was clean/non stained and sharp it'd be maybe a little better. But its not. Ew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a steal, only not liking the cut at the top. An 8.5 though is a good buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
