Got the Deathlok Marvel Masterworks hardcover for $40 shipped. Not bad when it just came out less than a week ago and and the cover price was $64.99. Saved $25.

Also picked up the Incredible Hulk Marvel Masterworks Volume 3 for $21.00 shipped! Regular price $49.99.

Was it denoted as "of 200"?

I was pretty proud to have #100 of 100.

Mine is not numbered - I would dare to say that probably around 1000 of these were printed, and it wouldn't surprise me to find out that Graham Crackers Comics has a case of them still.

Just for the sheer historical value. Looking at it makes you glad they didn't move forward.

Bought the Marvel Masterworks X-Men: Volume One hardcover for $5 on eBay today with $3.50 shipping. Dust jacket was pretty ratty and that's why I got such a good deal, but I display all my hardcovers without them, so no biggie for me.
