I had one just like that and 2 others that I sold at a yard sale last year. When I moved from a 3 bedroom house into a one bedroom apt. I think I sold them for 4 or 5 dollars. That price is ridiculous.

I would not buy that. You first have to know that it is not worth 300 dollars I do not care how many patterns are in there. Seconly there are too many free or better priced ones on the net.

I checked out the ebay listing and noticed that it is located where I live....Franklin N.C. What are the odds of that happening?

Some days it is great to get that belly laugh or even when you get a snort.

Those monthly sets were very popular many years ago. I have one from probably 30 years ago. I wouldn't give 25 cents for it now. Let him burn the books--as if you care. They certainly aren't worth $300.00. Some people advertise on Craigslist thinking they will make a fortune. Thanks for the laugh today.

He has an offer of $200 for them and is now working out the method to get them to the buyer. I wrote him and expressed surprise at the price for such an old and out of dated book (I didn't use those words exactly) His answers were a bit condesending. Says anyone here should grab the one on ebay or give him a "reasonable" offer. His buyer must really want them.

I think he has his head in the clouds and just picked a nice big number to fill his pockets with. Obviously did not do his homework. I doubt he will be selling these anytime soon, unless someone has more $ than sense. But, it takes all kinds to make the world go round.

Nope, I'd not pay $300 or even near that much. He's way overpriced those patterns!
