Sweeeet!

I've missed a few signed copies on eBay, and the one's I've seen on ABE are too pricey. I hope this is the beginning of more signed copies being sold on Amazon. Blood Fever maybe?

Just ordered mine. Thanks for the find, [dark].

Well that's a disappointment.

I had recently seen a signed one on eBay and planned to bid on it, but it looks like someone else must have got it.

Damn, I assume the same message is going to be forwarded to me. It's very disappointing to have waited so long, through so many delays, to have this happen. You think they could have at least offered us some sort of discount offer for our time and trouble. :tup:

A signed Moneypenny Diaries is a rare and expensive thing (much more so than signed Higsons). There are only 2 copies on ABE and they are selling for over $150.

Just checked; they haven't cancelled mine yet. My luck isn't that good though, so it's most likely just a matter of time :tup: .

I saw the title of this thread and got my hopes up, scrolled down a bit and saw Zencat's post, and then was utterly disappointed. I've still yet to get my copy of MPD, and I thought that a signed one would be perfect.

I second the :tup: .

I just won one on eBay today (and had previously seen one there a few weeks ago). eBay is the place to look for this one, IMO.

I just got an email stating that my order for this had been delayed 4-6 weeks...

Seems strange since other peoples orders have been cancelled...

Wait. You got this signed edition from Amazon, or are you talking about the signed one you got on eBay?

Interesting. But does this apply only to hardbacks, and even then just to genuine firsts?
