I do wish you luck but expect it to go above $200.00 as there is almost 5 days remaining.

I know, right? From what I have found out, I was expecting it to go for @ $200, and I was gonna bid up to $150 at this point in time. I had placed a $100 bid @ a week ago, and was hanging out @ $80 until last few minutes, and someone swooped in and got it! So, for $102, they did get a deal...

Haven't a clue, sorry. While the original would have been a smoking deal at what it went for, even re-print would have been a very good price. So, as cheap as it DID go for, I am thinking re-print....but could be wrong as well.
