New out of print book for me

Post by jcwillow777 » Fri Nov 05, 2021 8:10 pm

I have wanted to get a copy of Mike Harding's book, "A Guide to North Country Flies and How to Tie Them" for a few years now. I finally bit the bullet and bought a copy. Glad to have it in my library. The price range has been a roller coaster over the past 4 years that I've been looking. When I first started looking it was going for a little over $300. Over the years I saw it sore to $10,000. I doubt it sold for that price, and there were several others asking $5,000. That's just crazy! The lowest price I've seen was $100, four of them going for that on eBay at the same time. I found one for a little over that. The search for books is a never ending one!

Ten grand?! This may be the priciest book in my collection! :D

Some people have more dollars, than sense. ;) :lol:

Great little book. Glad you finally found a copy.

I got mine used for about 8 BPS, years ago. It is a great little book. I used to leave it out on my tying table at expos, not anymore. Congrats on the find.

I just bought a copy over on the Classic (Bamboo) Fly Rod Forum that appears to be unread. Rejoyce with me!
