<VV> The Corvair Decade

[Western Canada CORSA]

I would think putting it up on Ebay is the "fairest" way for the most CORSA
Members to participate.  Auctioning them at a Convention (or any other
event) would limit access to only those that could attend.  Besides, it's
just good business on the part of CORSA's management, why shouldn't they do
what they can to maximize the member's return on investment for printing the
books?

I recall searching the net for a copy of TCD several years ago, a book store
was asking $75 for a used copy.  I'm sure CORSA's brand spankin' new ones
will be quite a bit less.

Regards,
Joel

P.S. I'm quite proud of my autographed copy of TCD, gentleman that he was,
Mr. Fiore only asked that I provide return shipping.

The Communiqué arrived today.  There was a notice on the cover that the 25th
anniversary issue of Tony Fiore’s “Corvair Decade” has been printed in 1000
copies.  Apparently, copies 1-20 were autographed and are to be offered on
EBay in November.  I suppose that the folks at CORSA see this as an
excellent way to raise capital.  I for one am disappointed.  I would love to
have a copy (autographed or not) and would have gladly participated in an
auction at the convention or any number of other venues.  But I won’t be
doing so on EBay.

 

I can only hope that the remaining 980 copies will be made available to
those who have kept this hobby alive over the last 30 years or so and at a
reasonable price.
