   If you can get 175 on those, I should've bid higher... I lost the book   
   (150 total including the shipping was my limit).  It was a limited   
   edition autographed book in leather limited to only 100 (and it was   
   embossed on the cover in gold lettering to that effect as well as   
   printed on the flyleaf).  I thought it might be worth in the 300's but   
   I felt like I didn't want to chance it and I had a lot of expensive   
   bids on items (lost them all basically but oh well, we spent a lot   
   last night at the concert).
