    Is there a decent place to find this book online? I'd like a copy and searched on Amazon and it's either around 100 or over 700:eek:. I've added this to my Christmas list and having trouble finding it locally and checked in the for sale forums. If I could find a copy in a library i'd probably take it home and copy it. Or does anyone have a copy I could borrow with a deposit if needed?

    That and books on similar subjects are through the roof on Amazon. I had a few on a "wish list" so I could remember the ***les....Each time I look at the list, the prices about double.

    That being said...I'm sure there are still some out there in book stores at their list price. I saw "G***er Wars" a couple of years ago in a Books A Million store, and thought it was too expensive, and decided to wait for it to make it to the discount table. If I had only known!

    You might try getting a local book store to order one. They might get them at list from a wharehouse or publisher.

    This has got to be a misprint. I saw one at Barnes and Noble for $40. Otherwise I would probably sell mine for $250!! ha ha

    Half.com has the hardback around $71 and the softback $17. Or just wait till after Christmas when the prices come down.

    People can ask whatever they want for them.

    I've seen a little book on Florida history, that's not much more than a pamphlet, that sells for three or four dollars all the time online, that some clown is asking $100 for on Amazon and Ebay.

    That doesn't mean anyone is stupid enough to pay that much for any of them.

    I have been looking for this book for months and finally found one under $100.00
    Go to "yearone.com" and search for "BF320" and its only $22.95 plus shipping.
    The picture on the website shows a 41 Willys on the cover but I just got the book
    in the mail and its got the 33 willys Malco g***er on the cover(softcover)
