Suppose this is legit. If you had $35,000 right now to spend would you buy this?

I have $35,000 right now. No I would not buy it.
Wouldn't buy. I'm not at the level of autism where I need first editions or signed editions.
Having a physical is enough for me.
>buy
fuck no. i wouldn't pay $10.10 for that piece of literally worthless consumerist garbage. this fetishistic piece of shit isn't worth the postage that would be used to ship it.

Collecting is for the rich.
And no, I'm not talking about your fucking baseball cards.

If I had $35,000 I would be on a pool drinking a lemonade right now.

I bought a 1st edition in nearly mint from a second hand store in Brooklyn for like $20 lol.

The seller seems legit, but I think they're high as fuck (or at least as high as Pynchon was when he wrote GR) if they think they can get $35,000 for a signed copy from an author who's still alive. Even Pinecone.
Unless they're betting on him dying soon...
i have a version with a tear on the cover, which got me 25% off.
lmao I got my 1st edition for ten bucks at a coffee shop
there are so many of them out there, what a dumbass
Pynchon will die in a few years.
I'd buy it because the price will fucking skyrocket.

Hell be fine
I dont have the money, but I might actually. That price will definitely go up once Pynchon dies, it's almost a sound investment.

DON'T EVEN
>>7521081
easy with that ambition buddy
>>7521084
It's signed you dingus
Why would I pay $35,000 for a book I myself had written just because it has my signature inside the cover?
>>7523462
