gsxnik - I found a couple other copies on the net, but they only save you ~$100 - if coon007 is serious, you'll probably get the best deal from him. Check out www.alibris.com & www.abebooks.com and type in the title of the book - you'll find them there.

The other thing you could do is turn this into an adventure yourself and visit some antique/used/old bookstores (especially really big ones) and see if you have any luck finding it there for much less.

Oh - by the way, check out the post I made a few days ago in the recommended reading section aboug "getting your treasure hunting juices flowing," as I've been reading two other books on this same subject and have found them really interesting.
