Yeah I am in the middle of a couple other books but I definitely plan on reading this. The reviews have been all over the place. I love reading things outside of my comfort zone and Moore has never disappointed there.

Yeah I was on the fence about picking up a second one on another account but ... if there is like the Renegades book, maybe there will be others. I'm really suprised and, again, still skeptical. But with how the hobby is these days, $515 is a great price to some fans.

Assuming this is all on the level, super huge thank you to fishmc!

Ah, good find. Bummed I missed this! Congrats to the lucky few who were able to snag a copy.

Unfortunately, it looks like the only copies available now are on eBay going for $9k!!!

To those who bought copies to sell on eBay. Bah humbug!!!

If I hadn't bought one to sell on Ebay, turning $800 into $9,000 would change my tune in a heartbeat.

To be fair none have actually sold.....People are just asking stupid prices with hopes of getting someone to make them a decent offer.....I imagine like everything else once more pop up on ebay the race to the bottom will happen

Maybe, maybe not. Here's some of his signed lithographs for sale. You'd think if they were starving for cash they'd realize they can sell these reproductions for $700 signed all day.

I sure hope he signs a ton of these.

You underestimate how notoriously reluctant a signer he is. Would really be something, though, if he suddenly began signing books like a champ!

I've gotten a George R.R. Martin signed bookplate in the mail for the cost of two stamps. You could try writing him too. I don't know if he's still signs but he did a few years ago.

Some ebay sellers have added pics that have been going around online. One person online who posted pics said their Chapters called them to pick up their in store pick up order already. Who knows what is real though: https://www.ebay.com/itm/175457673360

I came here to post the same thing about the Bob Dylan book. There is a current post in the RACC facebook group and it looks like an autopen (to others. aka not my judgement)

Yes, the book doesnt release for 12 days. The person on facebook has the book in hand and got it early in error (shop must have screwed up the pickup dates and notified the person to come get the book)

The biggest shocker of all to me is did Chapters of all places actually get a signed exclusive of this? How has this not popped up anywhere else?

Yeah been tracking this thread. I'm guessing it's likely your average internet troll. I'm not saying these are going to be real or not but I will say it doesn't make a lot of sense to autopen something to the tune of hundreds on one site instead of thousands across all sites.

I'm not going to believe anything (positive or negative) until the book releases though.

This is van grant from live.autographmagazine.com who said: "Same photo, it's my listing. Saw it this morning so used it for my listing" and "Mate - it's my eBay listing. I'm using the same stock photo everyone is using right now from that post - If a book ships in November, as a pre order reseller you have to give time on arrival lol" source

Just noticed on paypal that they are doing a cashback type thing for 7.5% at BAM for anyone who has paypal looking to make purchases at BAM:

Have used it so not 100% clear on how it works but might stack with BAM codes for future purchases.
