Bioshock Infinite: AUTOGRAPHED MIND IN REVOLT BOOK only 15 available

[Knight]

Is $130 really that much for 4 sigs though? It's only $35 each when you break it down. I did think it was too much at first but now I see more value in the signed ones especially if there are only 15.
Still, I respect that others won't share that view. Looks like my book just shipped as well. Awesome!!

Nope I feel the exact same about this notebook and the lithos as well

Honestly it just feels greedy and more important lazy

If they don't need the money from this, why make it so expensive?

Why not reward the first 15 fans to see the item and simply give it to them for the cost of the book? That is if it has nothing to do with money being made

Lithos are the same. Numbering and signing what appears to be an open edition screams lazy to me

They should have at least made the limited version giclees or something

Instead of just taking the first 100 copies and signing and numbering it

Again so lazy and uncreative

When did you place your order for the signed book?

I guess I always subscribed to the school of thought that when you buy a piece of art, for example a lithograph, the artist isn't signing it so he can jack the price up $35.

Its such a blatant cash grab that IMO just shows the disregard they have for their bigger fans.

Ι feel the same way. I think these items are overpriced from Irrational.

I suppose that depends on whether you care about the other sigs... i really only care about Ken's... but the others are just like "meh" bonuses.

Really Ken is the Director, writer, and mind behind all of it. Yeah the others contribute but for me they aren't the same.

if they sold them dirty cheap one person would buy them all and tomorrow they would be a thousand dollars on ebay. Its a fair price and looks like they sold them in small cycles that way the people who constantly check the store could have a fair chance rather than one our two people with the funds to add all of them to thier cart. I collect a lot of art and Signed numbered art is so much more appealing and usually worth getting.this isn't a bad price for true fans considering the rarity, I will never sell it if I get it . The the signed lithos were a great deal considering each one was signed twice, but I missed out one those. Like I was saying the company isn't making tons on these, they might make something like 2500 profit after thier costs and time, to me this is just an extremely rare piece. They could have asked a thousand and they still would have sold out pretty quickly, I do agree the non signed book should be 50 dollars though.Waiting for shipping email, still hoping.

Yeah kens signature is the tops, that was the only reason I got the boardwalk art. Its a huge bonus as looking glass studio fan they are still probably my all time favorite company, and pretty much the soul of irrational games, ken did system shock 2 which was way ahead of its time, I suggest finding it as its just as good as bioshock, pretty much bioshock in space, the studio also did the original two thief games although I'm not sure if ken was part of the team then. The guy is a brilliant writer a historian of sorts and actually cares to get his games made the right way, I will be really surprised if this doesn't deliver or else il have to hide my song bird statute in shame but I'm doubting that

A $1,000!? Now your just being silly...
