I have a copy of this book purchased new.  Trying to determine a value is difficult so any opinion among you I'd appreciate.

I've got the hard cover I bought new, but don't remember what I paid. I see it on Amazon now for around $13.

@shambles The Amazon offer is not for the 2015 book, but rather one published in 2011.  I think/

The 2015 hardcover sold for about $50 back in 2015 but has been listed recently at $750 or more.

 

Not sure if any sold at that price. A reprint is supposed to be coming out at some point.

I only have the 2011 edition.

I paid around $70 or $75, I believe.  Got it direct from the publisher.  Can't recall if that price included shipping.  Great book.  MPS seemed like such a gr8 guy.

I goofed not buying the 2015 issue when was available, never imagined it will be so difficult to find it later.

You probably remember these guys, they were posting here several years ago then they moved to flickr and elsewhere....

Wish I had bought the 2015 version.  I hope that reprint happens.

I've got the 2011 issue. I didn't know there was a more current one.
