I've frequently noticed on Amazon where a book or CD is still available
new from Amazon for $10 or $15, and/or from numerous community dealers
for even less, that some idiot will have a copy listed for $999.99!!!!! 
And a few others will be in the $200-$400 range!  Some people are CRAZY!

But Dave, I was also interested in the prices for the Berliner
reproductions.  Do you remember them.  Were they all the same or
different?

Hey Mike,

Sorry,but I didn't look too closely at the repro discs - the only one I
remember the title of was the Edison "Let Us Not Forget." Ironically,
someone was selling a decent-condition copy of the original Edison disc
for less than the reproduction!
