Hello,
and thank you for the info;
I think 70 US $ is a reasonable price, so I took the opportunity to jump at it right away. I think Sensei's got his bags full enough everytime he comes to Europe anyway...

Insomnia sometimes has it's advantages

Especially if it is induced by your daughter's tiny hands grabbing at your nose at the wake of dawn

That is a very good price for Grasscutter. I am out of them myself.

A copy went for more than $300 on e-bay about a year ago.

I THINK I PAID OVER $400.00 FOR BOOK #5 A COUPLE YEARS AGO. IT WAS THE ONLY ONE I WAS MISSING. SO IT WAS WORTH IT I GUESS. BUT A COUPLE WEEKS LATER ANOTHER CAME UP FOR SALE & WENT FOR LESS THAN $200.00. OH WELL

Thank you for the link; I was trying to show how shocked I was about the fact that I bought that gem for sooooo little money (although I still have to convince my wife that this is really very little money...

Oh well... )

The cover price was about $60, and it came out in 1999. It won the Eisner, a Spanish Haxtur, and a American Library Association awards. It was limited to an edition of 350 copies.

So you did quite well with your purchase.

Hey, I've had it in yesterday's mail already; it arrived here in excellent condition, extremly well taken care of!!

So, the only thing that could be added to make it even more awesome would be a sketch by Sensei....

Although....
Hmm, don't know....would it be asking for too much?!

If you really are going to meet me in London, you can bring the book along with you.
