First Edition Value
Just wondering, I DON'T want to sell as I have cherished this book since I purchased new = I worked in a book store and we had a "new author' section. We were allowed to 'check out' new books to better serve customers. I checked out this book, and then bought it. I then turned on untold number of friends to this author, and only recently stopped loaning out my copy when a friend said - Hey! this is a 1st edition! Stop loaning it out!
Thankfully, it being a hard cover, I always hold on to the jacket when loaning, so I would say this is in good/very good condition. (some 'bookshelf wear' on the jacket) and some wear on the silver title stamp on the spine - otherwise - perfect.

Might help if the name of the book and it's author were given. Most of us don't have ESPN.

It's in the Fight Club book forum, dude, what more do you want?
It depends on a lot of things. The condition of the book and dust jacket are the most important. Is it signed? I've seen them go anywhere from $100-500 on ebay.
There are 26 copies on [url]www.abebooks.com[/url] right now, that are asking between $200-1500, so there's a range for you, the higher ones are all signed. Ebay has one going for $242 right now.
The value is only as high as what people are willing to spend. As you can see, there are many out there right now for less then $242, and yet, people will still spend what they want. I have books worth $400 that won't sell on ebay one day, but then will sell for more a month later. It's a bit of a crapshoot.
If you are just going to hold on to it, know that it is worth between $200-400, but more importantly, that it is a seminal book.
Peace,
Richard

I don't ever look at what forum it's in, I just use the new posts feature.
12 views and no one has an opinion, a guess, an smart ass answer? really? I found some other sites but its all over the map $100 - $2,000.
Anyway, like I said, its NOT for sale. I was just curious. but from what I've seen, I'm going to but a PB edition to loan out tomorrow.
