I don't believe that I just purchased it. I don't think it was worth 200. I didn't even think law school books were worth 200 dollars. However, like so many other people that have gotten it or will get it, I knew that it was something that I would likely regret not getting.

Sabrina: Law school books are not worth $200.00. They're printed and reprinted by the thousands and I'll wager that not a one is a collectors item.
This is something special. And while I also had that moment of "Holy crap! $200?!" before I clicked the ORDER button, I knew I would have regretted not doing so.

Well Darren, I think you had good timing with the release of the book. With all the delays I had lost interest in buying it. That is, until I saw the series finale last night and got a little teary-eyed at seeing them go through the gate one last time. Also, the Canadian dollar is currently quite strong vs. the US, making the final cost to me that much more favourable. Thanks!

Alright, thanks for the update Darren!
Just got mine... $200 is a pretty special case for me. I have shelled out more than that for memorabilia in auctions, but not much more and very rarely. It's not something I do everyday, but I know it will be well worth it (and glancing at those pics you provided even more so! ).

Although the book is overpriced in terms of its actual value, and it probably won't be a traditional "collector's item" because it will not have a high resale value, I think that it well sell out. The way I look at it, people pay for Creation gold tickets year after year even if they have already seen the actors and obtained the signatures. People also purchase set visits even if they have already seen the sets. I confess, I am one of those individuals and I have seen some of the same people each year. Some people even make costumes so that they can dress like the actors. Although there is not a huge quantity of people in relation to the U.S. population that will make these expenditures, if the initial printing is 1000 I think it will sell out because I am sure that there are at least 1000 people that have paid for creation tickets.
