netnet Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I happened to be going through a box of books in the basement and it turns out I have a second copy of Klarman's "Margin of Safety". So I am selling it. So, $ U.S. 990 to the first one to respond. (The book is in excellent condition, with book jacket.) Hey maybe we can have Sanjeev be the escrow agent and give some money to his favorite charity. Sanjeev, if this is not a 'proper' forum for this let me know and take the post down.

shalab Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 If the library copy example is anything to go by, you may never get your copy back. My library no longer lends the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsad Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Would anyone have a problem with me putting a PDF copy on here? Yes, it's copyrighted material! There are plenty of sites that have it for viewing as the links show, so it's better to use those links than post the file here. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinWhitman Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Does anyone have an idea why this book is not "in print" anymore e.g. why Seth does not want another edition to be published? I mean, it does not contain any embarrassing material like the CBS documentary about Paul Tudor Jones which is really funny if you can get it (http://dealbook.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/07/28/rare-trader-documentary-surfaces-on-youtube/) ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmallCap Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 it was stated on one website that follows him that after he published the book he regretted it because he didn't want to create any more competition. I am not sure if that is the real reason or not but it also talked about how super secretive he is about his life and investments.

MartinWhitman Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Thanks for the explanation SmallCap. BTW, if anyone has an idea how I could get a hand on Baupost`s latest shareholder letters, please contact me via boardmail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
