They attempted delivery this morning at my house but I was at work. Will be picking it up from the post office tomorrow, so excited!

did you check behind the 'secret' flap at the back for a signature or plaque? most of the books after the first 2000 should be signed.I received my tracking info on 11/2 and my books arrived safely today! Not a bad delivery time at all.
I ordered after the initial 2000, so these are neither numbered nor signed, but I'm still happy.

I think it must be for artistic purposes... as most of the other pages are virtually identical.No way, I love this page too

That is weird, for something so accurately created. I can only assume that the pop-up above was a seperate prop made during post-production. I've asked 'em about it on Facebook though.
that's very interesting. I loved this movie and wanted one of these books bad. but for all the time "extensions" and "revisions" for them to make a "kinda close replica" im disappointed now. I would want to be able to watch the movie and look thru the book as the scenes played out.... :unsure coolness factor just took a dive...:cry

So…on Ebay "Worldwide" searched from Europe, 14 books have sold from £806.84 down to £201 for an unsigned and unnumbered, with the majority around the £300 - 400 mark. Just for the records sake to follow the pricing of these. The £806 remains suspicious as a shill bid, and still no feedback on the seller's profile for the sale.
I really do think the price of these will come crashing down. I own a 1 of 200 ESP JH-2 guitars, from 1996, 99% mint condition, and I doubt I could get anymore for it than when bought new. So a run like this, I don't think those prices can sustain themselves for much longer.

Dont get it wrong, this thing is still super cool in person. I freaking love mine.
If I recall, those pages in the film appeared as the horror of the Babadook intensified, so I imagine the pages changed to keep in line of how the book would have been, as a children's book first, rather than what it "evolved" to be during the film's narrative.
You nailed it. Great catch on that. This is a replica of the book as it first appeared in the film. As the mother tries to discard the book and destroy it, the book changes.
I have always thought that the prices would be crashing, but I did not think that it would be this fast. It seems that the novelty has worn off with very few books on the market. There are a lot of factors explaining this (coming from a rare book collector point of view), but am surprised at the precipitous fall in prices.
After Christmas, I think that people will be lucky to get even $100 for their book.
Still think it is a cool book, though.
