This review is from: Bakertowne's Price Guide For Mi Hummel (R): A Realistic Look At These Wonderful Collectibles! (Paperback)

This was exactly what i was looking for. I also bought their co-boy gnome guide. I was seeking prices that were based in reality, and this book delivered. I was able to sell some of my collection on ebay for the ranges they list. It has nearly all the hummels i needed, an if there was one or two they didn't have, i emailed them and they were happy to help me find a price! i truly recommend this book!

I also bought their precious moments guide and recently was given this book b/c i wanted to look up a few prices from my uncle's collection of hummels. I realize now i probably should have collected hummel instead of precious moments, but oh well! Anyway, i really like the book. I like that it's in chart format and I think it takes some real courage to stand up to some of the 'bigger' books out there with crazy prices. People who want to write negative reviews should go to the books with the pretty pictures and tell them that that shouldn't lie to us collectors when it comes to prices. Bakertowne's is honest, and for that, I can't thank them enough :)

I actually also bought and reviewed their guide for Royal Doultons, which i love. I recently got this book and i was very pleased. I don't usually write reviews, but I'm on a roll now! I cannot believe those two negative reviews. IT says "in an easy to use chart format," so I think they do their due dilligence... AND you can search inside! I find the prices to be refreshingly realistic and i'm so glad someone had the guts to stand up to the Miller's and Luckey's Guide. I also did some research and now realize that Hummel has to approve the use of their pictures, so I appreciate that Bakertowne's Price Guide took their own photos which is probably why there's less pictures than an approved by the manufacturer book. I don't know about you, but I'd rather get real prices than something that's been approved by manufacturers with inflated prices! It doesn't have to be pretty, it has to be accurate! This gets my vote all the way! Check out their sites too - they don't hold back on giving information - they even state on the first page, 'if there's something you don't see, just email us or visit our site and we'd be happy to help.' Who puts their email for anyone to see? I think that shows complete integrity.
