[78-L] Price guyed

I tend to use them more for discographical purposes than anything 
else. I find the pricing only really valid in the relative sense -- 
record A is worth more than record B -- rather than hard and fast values.

Getting back to the original question, of all of them I like 
Orborne's book the best and Les Docks' the least. I took and instant 
dislike to Dock's guides when he used the preface to slam Osborne's 
books by saying 'There is nothing "official" about this guide', and 
then went on to cop an attitude that his opinions regarding value 
were superior to anyone else's.

This is why I shudder when else a certain high profile collector/ 
seller discovers a disk by some obscure artist and pays/ offers 10 
quadzillion russbucknicks for it.
