Yeah, it didn't work for me today, either the TinyUrl or the
full-blown URL.

Here's the listing, with apologies to the seller for posting
copyrighted work:

Charles Dickens
The Works of Charles Dickens
University Library Association Good. Fine Binding. This brown quarter
leather bound set, is 30 volumes. Six of the volumes are in poor shape
with spines missing, several of the others are worn at top and bottom
of spine. The set belonged to one owner, a doctor, who kept them in
shelves by his fireplace, these years, so the leather is fragile for
that reason. I have not attempted to treat them with leather
cream..left that for the new owner as some object. Front covers are
green marbled with corner leather. This numbered set is #315 of 1000.
It is the Bibliophile edition, in rich brown leather with gold gilt.
Bookseller Inventory #015326

Price: US$ 600.00

I won't post the seller's name, but if the original poster goes to
AddAll.com's rare book search, enters "Charles Dickens" in the author
field, "Works" in the title, and "bibliophiles" as the keyword, it
will come up.

Again, one listing does NOT an accurate value make, but it's a
beginning.
