Fat Old Guy 11 Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 As most know, I have a collection of old and EVIL Scout Handbooks. Whilst browsing on ebay, I came across this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=13887&item=3911767008&rd=1 Makes me wish that I had and extra $1,500 just laying around with nothing better to do. I did read in US News and World Report that BP's original "Scouting for Boys" has been re-released. I checked Books-a-Million and they have it for less than $20. I recently found a web site that hooks you up with hundreds of used book shops around the country and I was astonished to see what they were asking for old Scout Handbooks. $45 was not unusual for a 4th edition. For point of reference, I picked up my 4th edition on ebay for about $10 including shipping. Link to post Share on other sites
mikeb 10 Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 While that handbook looks to be in better condition than most I think it's still overpriced by at least $500. I would certainly want to see more pictures before commiting that much money. These auctions are more normally priced: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=13887&item=3911555768&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=13887&item=3910957985&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW Link to post Share on other sites
