I have some expensive books in my library but I have dozens up dozens that didn't cost very much. Not as many sources for them anymore but if you look for DBI Books or Krause Publications and look for older titles you'll find some gems cheap.
ETA: Books from Krause in the last 20 years tend to be puff pieces. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: I'll be willing to listen when good stuff comes around. I've bought some turkeys in my day and I've also overspent on stuff (Norwegian 1911, and then the Colt 1918 1911) and thought they were too good to be true. You could tell that collector that showed me the differences felt a little bad as being the guy to point out where I had gone wrong. Still, it was appreciated. Sometimes those books are rare specialty expert kind of books where it costs a pretty penny just to get them. The Internet... you get what you pay for right away. Yes, I have run across it. |
