The logistical/time-sink overhead OR having to deal with loss of

I absolutely recommend you pulp them yourself (because ... you know

increases the amount my copies are worth).

Harlan Ellison once told me I need to buy every remainder of my books
and warehouse them, then when I go to conventions or lectures, have
someone sitting in the back of the room selling them. Harlan failed
to realize I have never gone out of print. So I might be able to sell
a few hardcovers to those who want them (assuming I want to buy 3 or 4
hundred copies and store them), but lugging around even 5 copies of 30
titles? I don't think so.

You only need a hundred of each, signed and numbered by the author, and
a special ink stamp to depict Pugs seal. Very limited edition, direct
from the author , rare! At least 5 times recommended retail price :)
You may not have done it for the Riftwar books, but King of Ashes, might
be a place to start. :)
