Aren't you going to have to pay shipping & import to Poland regardless? Just curious.

Ah, but Amazon.com only charges 4 bucks per book + 4 bucks per order! So if I order 2 books together (say, Overture and Endless Nights), that's only 12 bucks for shipping both! That's why I almost always buy my books there.

Any local options would mean getting the translated edition, as Polish bookstores don't order any non-translated comic books. No specialty comic shops either, market's too small. So, out of the question.

Anyway, thank you all once again for your advice. It's really not that big a deal. I can live with the paperback, or maybe a NM 2003 edition will pop up on Mycomicshop.com in the meantime. I was even seriously considering that Very Fine copy Batman pointed to before starting this thread, but ultimately decided to wait a while longer and see what happens.

I was just curious why DC put out all these Gaiman Deluxe HCs followed a few months later by TPBs, but skipped the HC for this one.
