ESTIMATE - (est)
If a value is given with (est) behind it, this means that I don't have recent sale info for this specific edition. I'm basing the price off of either an old previously sold copy (over 1 year ago) or previous sale prices of lettered editions that are similar. For example a lettered FDNS and Lettered SODv2. Both have been issued from the same publishing house, with the same # of copies. With some adjustments made for popularity of the book, comparative size & value of other edition runs (limited and gift), etc.
STREET PRICE
Some books are so rare that there really haven't been enough copies of that edition of the book
sold in a given time to give a standard value. Rather it comes down to what you're willing to pay
at the time - and that sale will set the precedent for future sales in the near future. Many lettered editions fall into this category. However, if you would like a price estimate on a particular book please let me know and I will do my best to put a value on it based on historical values.
Alternatively if you know of a recent sale of a book listed as EST or STREET PRICE please email me with the link and I will mark that as a data point for future pricing reference.
