No, that's not a typo, as the rare preview issue 0 (zero) of Edge magazine is currently on eBay for an astonishing 'Buy Now' price of £7,000 - and has been since May 2011!  If you don't happen to have a spare £7,000 in your pocket then you can make the seller an offer bid, which 19 people have already done, unsucessfully, I might add.  So there's definitely interest in the magazine, but just what price it will finally go for remains a mystery, if it does go.

I think he might be a tad optimistic. Wink

I could see this selling four a couple of hundred pounds, but certainly not a 4 digit one.

I'm surprised that an Issue 0 has as many pages as that.  The two features he's took pictures of (Microcosm and Soundscape) are both in Issue 1.  So it makes you wonder just how much stuff is in there that hasn't already been reprinted.

Indeed. It is strange to have repritnts from a preview issue. And I'm pretty sure the date is the same as the first issue: October 1993.
