Just at a used bookstore today that had a first ed. Vineland for $14.95.
I bought a used first ed. Vineland last Winter (which I am finally reading
at this moment) for $7.48.
I guess some used stores stick high prices on first editions hoping that
someone will pay it? But most realize that Vineland isn't worth a lot.... I
see it out there quite a bit.
