Limited editions.
That's it. Some books are printed in few hundreds of pieces and some even like in 12 copies. In such cases their price inevitably goes into insane hights. Can't deny that some of these editions are beautiful, but I personally only approve if cheaper version for actual practitioners who want to read and use it, is available.

Plus they may be bound in virgin ferret leather or somesuch.
Virgin ferret
Never bought one, myself. That is about to change with the release of the 2nd edition of She of the Night. Doesn't have all the ostentation of the first, but it is still the same text/illustrations at $200 for the set. I'm not sure if this would technically qualify, but at my budget it damn well does. Totally worth it, though, IMHO.
