These prices are completely unrealistic, and that is the reason why he is offering the same books all the time. At eBay you get them for 10-20 %, at even then manby of them are not sold. If they are underlined, cracked or yellowed, you get a dollar or two. It is like with stamps, they need to be unmounted mint to get something. Strange thing, when you buy them you pay 100$, but when you try to sell them you get 10$. Catalogue value is one thing, market price a quarter or so of that. So the prices here are cut from some of the catalogues existing on WT literature, where books are listed at several hundred $, but sold for a fraction at eBay. The market is only so and so big, there is only a limited amount of collectors. Go ahead and try, but when you come sobbing back to AlanF, I guess he'll lower his bid to 45$ ....... AlanF and I have traded thru eBay, and he is a very straight and just guy.
