| | | Rare PS auctioned for £20,000
A rare first edition copy of ' Philosopher's Stone' has been put up for auction on eBay with a starting bid of £19,500. Quote:
The item is described as: 'First edition, first issue. Original casebound state with pictorial boards.
'Only 300 were produced, with a large proportion of these going to libraries. This copy is probably the best you are ever likely to see. No faults whatsoever.
'Housed in a quarter red morocco solander box by The Chelsea Bindery, titles to spine gilt.
'Owning this book is like having treasure.'
Pictures of the book can be seen here.
The auction, which has yet to get any bids, ends in two days.

Hmm....so what importance could this guy have to be put on the back cover? Although sometimes they just put really random things on the back, like the castle on my copy of COS.
And what's that back that he's carrying?

Wow! That's a lot of moolah for a copy of PS, but it's a first edition, so I guess it's understandable. *snuggles her tattered paperback copy of SS*

That's a right load of cash there. :O I could buy myself a Mini Cooper or Volkswagen Beetle for less than that, yikes. Still, guess it's worth it for a diehard HP fan.
