The Strain (#1 of 3) by Guillermo Del Toro & Chuck Hogan 1st & 1st HB DJ VGC!!

Description: BOOK INFO: "The Strain", Book #1 of 3 in the Strain Series by Guillermo Del Toro & Chuck Hogan, 2009 US Hardback! EDITION/PRINTING: 1st Edition & 1st Printing. See Copyright Page for extra details. CONDITION: I believe (MY PERSONAL OPINION) that this book is in "Very Good" to "Like New" condition (particularly considering its age), as far as eBay defines standards on condition. That said, if you are interested in purchasing this novel, I ask you to confirm the condition for yourself, as it is really up to you how you classify it, since purchasing used books is subjective with your opinions on condition being your own. I have posted as many pictures as possible to show both the book & jacket, from all angles. If you would like more images, please let me know. Happy to provide them. PACKAGING: I sometimes get questions about why I charge a bit more money for shipping, and the answer really shows up at your door. I buy good boxes for shipping, bubble-wrap everything, secure the book within the box so that it does not move around during shipping, and really take care in making sure it is done right. All of that costs a few bucks extra, in addition to the cheaper shipping options. I try to keep things as cheap as I can, but that is why the costs are a little higher, and will continue to be so. If you would prefer I toss it in a bag, not protect it, and put it in the mail to you, let me know and I can knock a couple dollars off the shipping, but when most people realize what that means, they tend to agree with the extra $. PRICING: Original MSRP for this item was suggested at $26.99, regardless of printing. I am pricing this book based on the fact that it is a 1st Edition & 1st Printing, because it is in great shape overall particularly considering it was released 13 years ago (Published in 2009), because it is a book that is part of a larger saga of books (The Strain Saga by Guillermo Del Toro & Chuck Hogan) making it valuable to collectors of the larger series, It is the basis for an epic TV Show that is well worth the read through before the watch, & lastly because people are hanging onto their early edition/printed books these days, making these early printings all the more challenging to find in any kind of good condition, let alone the condition this one is in. This book would be a really nice piece to have in any 1st edition/printing Horror/Fantasy collection. It would also be a real gem to a Guillermo Del Toro and/or Chuck Hogan collector without this one already in their library. I am decreasing the price slightly, due to the marking from a prior owner, on the title page. I do have other books for sale as well. If you see something else you are interested in, I would be willing to make special deals for multiple purchases. Email me for combo deals! If you have questions let me know, otherwise Make me an offer! Thank you for looking! -DJ Reaper's Repository
