evogeler Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 It does not. The SP books are printed on acid free paper. Yellowing comes from lignin in the wood pulp which breaks down into acid, which is yellow in color. Only inexpensive products are printed on paper that still contains lignin like newspapers. becca--your info and insight is always awesome. Thanks for contributing to this thread!

`SerPounce Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Becca bustin out some science, I thought pulp was only found in my orange juice. The 69 in her name must be from her favorite chemical element in the periodic table. Anyways good thing these pages won't fade yellow on us thanks!

Justinian Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Exposure to air WILL damage paper over the very long term, but we're talking about many many hundreds of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoogs Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I haven't seen an individual ASoS at all in the last few months. Rugger has AFfC posted back a couple of pages, but that's the only one of those that I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coreywt Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I haven't seen an individual ASoS at all in the last few months. There's one on Amazon, but it's a little on the high side: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/1596060522/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&condition=used Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eRome Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I've been talking with Rugger back and forth for almost two weeks, but in the last five days or so I haven't heard from him. Kind of a bummer... That ASOS on Amazon is considerably overpriced. That figure's more in line with a numbered MM AGoT... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rook12de Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Actually, not sure if you saw my post but I sold a numbered Storm and Feast for $2200 in a private trasaction. That's equal to about $2500 on amazon(with their crazy %15 flat fee). As far as I know nobody's exactly jonesing for a numbered Feast. Surprised people haven't taken into account that there's only one limited storm of swords versus the eventual two game of thrones. ASOS is also the first limited edition if that means anything for the 3rd book in a series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoogs, that's my thought too, but I have the #2 ADWD so at some point the lifetime subscriber decided they were going to stop collecting. Might be a long shot, but if they're a devoted fan they're probably on the fourm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
