Check out what somebody payed for this ,,,,http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eb...048418&r=0&t=0

I bought one awhile back for 14 bucks ,,, and that's more than it's worth (IMO).

Dean23 · 08-15-2002, 10:22 PM

Ouch you can buy them up here new for under 20

JHickson6 · 08-15-2002, 10:26 PM

Hey Dean23 I can never find them in Winnipeg, where do you find them?

Hooter · 08-16-2002, 12:31 AM

OUCH! i bought mine at a used book store for 6 bucks canadian

johnnyp · 08-16-2002, 09:29 AM

You can by the book at Amazon for $17.00. Geez, I know people that buy on ebay have computers - you'd think they'd do a little search before bidding. The first bid was higher than the Amazon price.

*Gee_Emm* · 08-20-2002, 01:15 AM

OUCH is right

I don't think that book is even a really helpfull book for our years even.

Hmm lets see. I think the one I have cost about $21.00 CDN NEW!!!

That one sold for just under $100.00 CDN!!!!!!!!! 5 times the price. PLUS SHIPPING!!!!

Is this a joke?

Jared, I got mine at McNally, I really wouldnt recommend it though, I will show it to you sometime if you want

It's helpful for some stuff especially if you're a beginner (I have one), and your shopping for used parts.

Someone should send him a "How to Use Amazon.com to find Books" manual. Maybe he'll fork out $61 for that too!

lol

Joe67 · 08-20-2002, 12:34 PM

Man, some people really should do some homework

If you look at the bid history on that thing --> here I'll bet noble_celticknight is a friend of the seller

wlee · 08-20-2002, 01:34 PM

It's called bidder frenzy . . . a couple a guys that want an item won't accept being outbid - even if it means paying too much. Good for sellers, bad for uneducated buyers . . . Ahhh EBAY

They say idiots are born everyday. They go to Ebay to be baptized.
