If you threw away your original box that this book would be a place to start and good for insurance adjusters if they were stolen or destroyed. I got the book because my wife collected over a hundred of this figurines. This is not the books fault but I thought collecting these figurines were supposed to appreciate in value. If you believe that Precious Moments were suppose to gain value this book will open your eyes and then make you cry. How can something I bought 20 years ago, kept in perfect condition, with the box and collector's card in mint condition all go down by about two/thirds its value. Again it is not the books fault but I really feel cheated I spent thousands for something that is only worth a few hundred according to the book. It gives you two prices. The sales price if you try to sell it and the insurance price. The insurance price is much kinder so get insurance and have a bonfire.

I purchased this guide as soon as it came out and it really is incredibly realistic. The truth of the matter is Precious Moments Figurines are not worth a whole lot, and I was able to get a real life value of my Aunt's collection so we could settle her estate. I really appreciate the authors were bold enough to write such a truthful guide. Thanks!

Purchased this guide a couple of weeks ago and I couldn't be more disappointed. The guide is nowhere near complete, there are no pictures and the layout looks like is was done for a middle school typing project.
I have never given a bad review on a book before but this so called "guide" is pathetic. $20-what a rip-off!

I was very disappointed that not all of my figurines were listed in this book, or if they were, not all symbols available were shown. However, it is nice in that it is very simple to use-look your item up alphabetically and there are two price columns, one for insurance and one for resale.

This has useful information in it, but there are no pictures of the figurines. You must have the actual name of the figurine in order to use this book.

Not a useful book at all. I was very disappointed. This book should not be recommended when buying other precious moments guide books. I threw it away in the recycle bin.
