| What the f...!? Just snooping around on Amazon.com.... Doras of the Galland Circus (Library of Eagles, Number 1) (Paperback), and there were five of them.... Two for $669.94, one for $699.00 and two for $729.70!!! I mean, WHO would pay THAT amount, and WHO would expect to get THAT same amount for those books!!??

| Yeah it's very hard to find, out of print, and like several others of its ilk, it goes for a premium on ebay. You CAN find it on some download sites however. |

  | It must be one heck of book at only 74 pages long for that price. I could understand if it was signed by Galland but man....

Vol 2 is less than 2 weeks from being available at Eagle Editions, for those that are keen, like me!, to get a copy!

| Volume 1 is on the way. Looks like I'll have to get volume 2 also. ...but I draw the line well below $700. I saw copies of "Warplanes of the Third Reich" by Green on Amazon for 180 bucks and wouln't pay that either. |
