That'll go up a bit more, this book has been going for around £70 + on evilbay:yikes:
Even the dealers have increased their prices to a stupid level, less than two years ago I paid £10 for it secondhand from a dealer, quick search now and people are asking £90 for it.

I got mine from Macro in 1995 for £4.95. They had a whole pallet load - probably over 100 of 'em. If only I'd known, I could retire early.

£50? Practically a bargain when you look at listings such as this one:

£99 for the same book... Rather glad I bought mine some time ago.

These prices are just nuts ... it's a good book but not fifty notes good ... or even thirty notes worth. I have one that I've had for a long time (I'd forgotten I had it!) and like it but I really don't understand there prices as you could spend £30 - £40 quid on other books and get all the info and more.

But do people know that? I don't know what this book has in it as I've never seen one. It's now got to a stage where it's so hyped up that it's ridiculous. If I had enough money to buy one, (I would have to be a millionaire) I would, just to see what all the fuss is about.

I'm sure I would be slightly dissapointed.
