No just the one book. I just couldn't believe how these folks went so nuts over a common book someone was selling. Yes, a $10 book went for $610 when the dust settled. So I got hold of the 2nd place bidder behind the scenes and sold mine for $600. My conscience and my wife guilted me into returning his $600 cashier's check and finally selling him the book for $10. But I proved my point that people will buy anything, including baseball cards. I can't tell you the number of fake cards that came into my nephew by marriage's stamps, coins and cards shop back in the 1990s. This is how I learned to authenticate them. Once you learn, the fakes stand out like sore thumbs, even in lo-res eBay auction photos.
