I received this book yesterday. For a newbie to collecting like me, it is just what I've been looking for. The pictures are amazing. The information in it is incredible. The categories make things easy to find. It is just the right size to fit in my purse while I shop. I'm going to enjoy using this book very much!

debi,
This review is from: Collectibles Price Guide 2008 (Paperback)
the book was very generic and boring. some of the things in it were very common items that are only a few years old. Not much for the serious collector
