Too bad EBay disguises the names of bidders nowadays. I hate to get in a bidding war with friends* (but I didn't bid against you on this one, Mark, because I already have the book). My records show I paid $23.95 for my copy, and it doesn't have the original binding. I'd say you got a good deal, and it's an excellent book.

*in fact, it might be a good idea to discuss our bids on Mudcat so we avoid bidding each other into poverty.
