if you go to bruce's website, most are sold-out. what he does have left sells from 13-20. ebay prices from serious sellers average 5.00 per book. yes, their is a thief or two on ebay that have them in stores for "49.99 or best offer". for the longest time, bruce gave away full sets to his club members, and gave a free book with poster purchasers. so, many people have extra copies. some might say they flooded the market. i would venture to guess that 75% or more of MOPO people have his full collection. maybe 2 or 3 sets. i have 2 full sets that i will not sell----new, mint. i will confess that i once sold my sets, but realized it was a mistake not to have them, especially the specific genre series. cartoons is one of the best. i have made private deals with people and bought many. CAUTION: do not buy from ebay bookstore sellers......they are often substantially used, and stock photographs are used. here is a typical-template listing i use: _http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200496909550&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT_ (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200496909550&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT) i am experiencing that most of my buyers of bruce's books on ebay are not crazy poster collectors like we on MOPO. michael In a message dated 7/30/2010 12:55:47 P.M.

Wouldn't it make more sense for people interested in Bruce's books to buy from him directly, rather than a third party? Discounted or not, they still must be more than what Bruce is selling them for, correct? Otherwise, it's a money loss situation for this seller. Was curious.
