| You say this is for sale from a local collector? If you have the option of seeing the book in person before buying, then by all means go check it out first. There is just something screwy if it really has a 3rd staple where one would not normally be. Plus, based on the images, there is no way this book is anywhere close to an 8.5, even with a press and clean. Caveat emptor. | ||

| Trick of the eye? It's a third staple. I think you are talking yourself into he purchase. All I can say is, I personally would not buy that copy for my collection, and this book is on my grail list. | ||

| @DarthLego I've asked for better pics down the spine along with centre spread. It's a 350 mile drive for me to see it so id rather be sure before commiting to anything. I have a second option back up if this is a dud. But other option is from a well respected CS and is a 6.0/5 for roughly the same price | ||

 I'll probably wake up constipated.

| I would just play it safe and pass on this copy, especially if you can't physically inspect the book prior to purchase. | ||

| Where is this book located? By chance, maybe someone on the boards here is closer and could check it out. | ||

| @DarthLego Im having pics of the other option sent over to me today. its from a very reputable CS and they have it as raw 6.0/5 - I've asked them to put a hold on it for me. Other one IS a third staple. Ive said i'll take it for $150. See what they come back with... |
