    Anyone know what the highest priced book on amazon is?

    There are some US megalisters that for some reason price books in the hundreds of thousands, even where other copies go for less than £50. Sometimes the mega priced ones are mentioned on the Amazon seller boards just because no one can work out what the mega listers are doing.

    Mine too!

    A while ago someone posted they had sold a copy for £65 or so if I recall, and I'd seen the book in a charity shop the day before and dismissed it. Went back as soon as I could and of course the blasted thing had gone! :mad:

    If it makes you feel any better, my copy still hasn't shifted :rolleyes:

    /ponder... would it be asking for trouble to remove the detail about the small tear on the dustjacket?

    Up too early on a Bank Holiday - better half doing a Car Boot Sale.

    Anyway, just quickly checked email and The Dark Gods by Anthony Roberts and Geoff Gilbertson has sold for £15.

    Now maybe I can sneak back to bed after their car pulls off!

    Really hate to admit that I bought this book for myself when it first came out in 1980 but at least I've now managed to sell it -
    "Rock Stars in Their Underpants" - Paula Yates - £15

    Cost me £4.95 in 1980................have I made a profit or loss???

  • I picked this up in a charity shop and it sold for £27.75 before fees.

    Professional Make-up Artistry [Paperback] by Conway, Julia

    When I listed it, Amazon only had 2 in stock, and right now they have 5.
