	As far as good prices, I definitely agree with Don   ---   your pricing is
extremely modest, John, but very much appreciated!

Easy Mark?  Why you ---.......  That's what I get for being a nice guy!  OK
seriously I don't believe in screwing people and that's why hoar's like
this (deliberate misspelling, don't want to clutter Derrick's site) piss me

I think Red Arrow can still be had for a bit less than this but maybe
not.   The price is in Canadian loonies and it probably isn't much more
than $115 US.  I used this as a sample for the list because at least it was
a Pennsylvania book and that way I could sort of rant on about the Toronto
prices indirectly (sorry, Derrick).

At the risk of branding John an easy mark (not, I think, a valid label!)  
I'll let drop the observation that a few months ago he threw in a copy of
"TTC '28" for an amount so low that I'm embarrassed to quote it, as part of
an already modestly priced private sale of books to me.   At the time I
hadn't even heard of the book        :o}          nor
