Mario Testino ๐ต๐ช Fashion & Portrait Photographer, by rosstierney on Sept 4, 2010 16:58:05 GMT 1, "Hello,
We regret to inform you that we have been unable to obtain the following item:
Mario Testino "Kate Moss by Mario Testino"
www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/3836525038
Our supplier has informed us that this item is no longer available. This item has now been cancelled from your order and we can confirm that you have not been charged for it."
So that makes it alright? If I'd have known this was going to happen, I would have just bought it from Taschen, before it sold out!

Mario Testino ๐ต๐ช Fashion & Portrait Photographer, by snausages on Oct 8, 2010 17:39:25 GMT 1, Taschen is famous for this. The Koons special edition they did a few years back they initially offered at $1000 and then they tried to tell people they'd have to pay $2000 or whatever they raised it to after they ordered it.
Publishers always hold back first edition copies of stuff like this and milk them for high prices. They usually only send a small number of these high priced deals to Amazon as they only make a small profit there.
I still think $500 is too much for this - let alone $1000 but maybe I've underestimated the appeal of Kate Moss. Apparently a much bigger deal in the UK? But I agree with volvic, get the $50 book and use the $500 you saved on something better. Like exotic travel, you only live once. Who cares if a book on your shelf you hardly ever look at is signed or not.

Mario Testino ๐ต๐ช Fashion & Portrait Photographer, by stickitup on Oct 10, 2010 23:14:16 GMT 1, if anyone still wants a copyof this and is willing to payยฃ450 Harrods still have them, I ordered mine online at waterstones and managed to wrangle an order of ยฃ300 before the price went up and got it honoured at Waterstones at Harrods. Having got it, it is a nice book and although difficult to see why its so highly priced it is a verygood record of an icon who is recorded displaying fashion and a moment of our times in a way that Munroe did when alive. This book will be worth a fortune when Kate dies of an overdose or Testino is no longer around to press the button of a camera. It will fetch a lotin auction in years to come, buy as an heirloom
