Wow, $430 for a signed photo

The often seen Bukowski holding typewriter (as sold by Red at his book store) for $430?! Yow. Who woulda thunk it.

cool, but overpriced. Some people with money are bidding lately. They seem to want what they want, but in a few cases are overpaying. Maybe now is the time to list a few things...

Incredible. You could get a signed hard cover for less. Even a very nice copy of Crucifix.

I have never gotten into buying autographed items of any kind, and now I see why!

well, to put this in perspective, i picked up the same signed photo 3 or 4 years ago for less than $100.
you fish for fools long enough, you're bound to get a bite i guess...

Like this Hot Water Music with a painting. Not even a great painting, but still interesting to see it going for $2,650.

I gave that one more than a 2nd glance.

If only there weren't so many other expenses at the moment.

maybe the whole economy will go up now at last.
starting with Bukowski-items...

Wouldn't that make a headline: "Bukowski leads recovery; jobs to follow"
