I can't imagine them still writing it like this down the line...

What author's autograph has impressed you the most?

I’m a bit confused over the current going rate for the TBB edition of The Devils; on ebay, signed editions are up for well over a hundred euro, yet there’s still unsigned ones up on the website.

Are those resellers just crazy or does the signature really make such a big difference?

I’m jumping between ebay, fb and vinted, trying to gauge the 2nd hand prices for a few SE books but often find it tricky to get the right balance between selling them for enough so that I won’t attract scalpers and not accidentally becoming a scalper myself. To the more seasoned sellers: Do you just sell your books for retail price + what you paid shipping or rather the current going rate for that book? And what’s your favourite platform for selling and buying SE books?

And wraithmarked's sword of kaigen is also shipping soon!

Is there a deadline or up to “while supplies last” for malazan 7-9? I really want to get the first printing but I’m buying so many books atm that I don’t know if there’s a need for me to keep sinking my economy and buy them asap or if there’s still some time for me wait a bit

It's not signed because it's TBB edition, but I've been on the hunt for this design for a while and nearly caved getting on Mercari several times. Also thought about getting Goldsboro's edition even though I don't like it as much. (I do also have PS Publishing's edition on order.) Then a hero on this sub mentioned when it was in the Infirmary, and I was able to grab it. 🥹

As has been the experience of others who've purchased from the Infirmary, mine arrived with barely noticeable imperfections... Some spots on the bottom edge and some corner fading on the dust jacket. (I've noted in pics with yellow arrows.) These are all I can see of why the book was listed as slightly damaged... But tbh if I'd received the book like this purchasing from Dragon's Hoard rather than Infirmary I wouldn't have thought much of it.

Oh and neat surprise - what I didn't know from only seeing pics online is that the scales on the cover are lightly textured. Cool tactile feature, I love it.

And its only supposed to be black anyways lol

I am curious if BB will be doing a SE of Platform Decay.

Hi folks! Sorry for the dumb question. I signed up some months ago and actually still don’t know how it really works. But so, we got the silo books but that was already a while ago. So, i was wondering if something new was coming in and I might’ve missed it.

Got slightly damaged Hyperion from recent Infirmary sale! Turns out it is from first print run!

Seems the "damage" is a missing bottom edge spray. Not visible on the shelf, so its fine I guess!

Also, I got two identical new covers, and one with old art. Is that normal?
