Re - Conan story reprints:

I have the 3 Wandering Star volumes (the expensive ones $150+ ea) that were the definitive collections.
Of course, those were the versions that were then later repackaged by DelRey and made into $20 softcovers.
A bookstore near my parents had them and they just sat there behind the counter collecting dust. That store of course is no out of buisness because for a used book store, they were some of the worst types who had no clue. Yes they looked really nice but I'm just as happy with the Del Rey editions. I mean just look at those prices for some of those White Star volumes and its ridiculous. The Del Rey edition of the El Borak book is great with great art by Tim Bradstreet. Think Conan set in the 1930's.
