It's on Amazon, for one ;)
Spend 2 hours a week on eBay category 1247
http://listings.ebay.com/aw/listings/list/category1247 or the search
engine to know their prices for whatever it is that you want.
Ugh. I cannot express enough how much I abhor eBay prices. Unless you
knock off the top 10 highest and bottom 10 lowest prices then take the
average, the prices on eBay only reflect pricing in eBay dollars, which is
to say it is based on some pricing that is of another dimension and has no
meaning in our own universe.
The corollary is that if there are not enough representative samples to
knock off the top 10 and bottom 10 then eBay is not suitable to use as a
means to price things.
Buy Mike's book instead.
