I'm not surprised at that price...

Neither am I; the seller was asking for less than face value! And with book 3 and book 12 (those notoriously hard-to-get books), that offer was more than a good deal.
The only hook: you had to have that kind of money ready to be spent...

Yep, you generally make more if you break up the set, simply because the bulk buy narrows your market to just those people with enough for the whole nut.

He also added books 1-3 for sale.

Book 1 was also offered for sale without the signature plate. Fantagraphics sold them for $25 each, the same price as Book 5 without the plate.

Impressive. But that's in the ballpark of others that we have seen come and go on eBay over the years. I paid $200 for my Book 1 a few months ago on eBay and felt like I was stealing.

Hope they went to good homes.
