Question about Art of Guild Wars 2 Book - Guild Wars Forums

Cammy · Jun 09, 2011, 01:11 AM // 01:11

So I was cleaning out my bookshelf today and noticed I have two hardcovers of the Art of Guild Wars 2 book. I'm thinking of selling one, but I'm having a bit of trouble setting a price. There are no listings on Ebay for it and the vendors on Amazon are selling it for $100, which seems a bit ridiculous.

So my question is, is it really worth $100? What should I set the price (or starting price if Ebayed) at?

I bought an autographed copy from eBay not long ago for around $50 on impulse. I have seen others in the same range, higher and lower. I definitely have not regretted it.

. I think the ones on Amazon may be a little too high, but it would be sweet if you could get it.

Not sure about hardcover, but the soft cover version sales in mass-production from the Penny Arcade store for $19.99 and from the NCsoft merchandise store for $24.99

Hardcover books tend to be a little more, so I would say $35-$40 is a good price.

Speaking strictly for my self....

Had I not given up trying to find a hardback and finally bought a paperback off of Penny-Arcade, I'd have paid you $40 for a copy about a month ago. I just like hardbacks for art books because the binding is better. Your mileage may vary. I'm sure there's bound to be others out there like me.

More than that, I'd have to think about it, but I did reject the $100 ones on Amazon.

If you want a quick $40-$50 then put it up on EBay. If you want more than that, keep it a few more years. Don't forget, the asking price for something is not an indication of it's selling price.
