Bought this product for my boyfriend who had a cold when he got it. He loved it. His daily shower turned into therapy and helped perk him up too. The value on the multipack is well worth it. A great buy!

I love the Kovels knowledge base, but as my research usually includes finding out what the item is called, I can’t always find what I’m looking for. More pictures would help.

Such a pleasure to see the value in recovered family treasures that would normally be lost or put in a garage sale. This book is so very informative to the average person who has no knowledge of the valur of forgotten things. It has colorful pictures that give you a very good idea of what you are looking for and up to date values. It is a valuable addition to anyones book shelf.

If you know what you have and it’s easily identified such as a name brand or specific logo, date, size etc. then this book may help. Far more of the book should have been devoted to descriptions and photo I.D. such as the side bars throuhout the book show. The one line descriptions and price that fill most of the pages are a waste in my opinion. If you know exactly what you have and want a value then this book may be for you. If you are trying to identify what you have then look elsewhere for help.

This price guide is incredibly thorough! There are thousands of prices crammed into this book that cover a huge variety of items. All the prices in the book are actual prices rather than estimates so I feel confident that these prices are giving me an accurate reading of the market.
Besides the prices, I also found the information on the sidebars to be very helpful and enjoyed the many color pictures included. There are a huge variety of items here, but the Kovels do a great job of organizing them so you can easily find what you’re looking for. All in all, it’s a spectacular companion to anyone interested in antiques and the kinds of prices you should be paying for them. Many thanks to the Kovels for saving me time and money!!!!
