Come on Foxie. Are you playing a game with me? Why wouldn't someone want to get as much for the money they earn as possible? My money isn't given to me for free. It isn't limitless. I have to earn it, and it isn't enough to do the things I'd like to do. I want as much as possible for it.
Obviously the book, to me, is worth it. I bought it didn't I? I've damn near bought them all! I'm fairly certain I have more fpw books than you do. There are very few editions on the bibliography that I don't have checked off. I'm not talking about 1 of each book. I'm talking about 1 of each publishing of each book, short story, whatever, from each publisher across the world. I'm also fairly certain I've spent more money on fpw books than you. Don't try to preach to me about the value of the book. I know what a book costs, and what it's worth. I'm a collector. I collect things. FPW books are one of the things I collect.
I'm saying I'd rather get an extra something with a purchase than not. If I could choose to get something cool and free with the book I would. I'm also saying that a "Book Cover", to me, sounds like something more than a 5x7" (whatever size it is) picture of the front of the dust jacket. That is a cool little something, but not as cool as what I picture a "Book Cover" to be.
