    I have just bought #37 & #82 off Fleabay for $19.98 - incredible...I'm not a big fleabay fan, but $400 worth of mags for the price of few beers is good value in my World !

    I think he must be using Cavallinos own Value Guide for those numbers, they do buy and sell the vintage issues.

    Any of the original "old ones" (below #20 in my view) can bring crazy money.....my oldest issue is #11 in my collection. Then I jump to #18...I haven't kept up and I'm sure have more gaps...I don't have the one with the P4 on the cover that "caused all the trouble".

    But then we had one poster here log in and say "the local Library was throwing there away" and he had like the first twenty!!!

    Right after Enzo passed a set of original #1, 2, and 3 sold for $650USD
    Issue #1 has been reprinted...

    $400 for only 37 and 82? At that price I am selling with free shipping!

    $19,98 is good price!

    I started with 38, when it first came on sale in Europe and over the last 3 years I added early numbers that became available on ebay.. Now, I am only looking for some low numbers between 2 and 18.
    Never paid more than $45 an issue since! (and only for rare issues)

    Sorry to tell you this but I think you actually overpaid. All issues past 35 are selling for $6 average these days.

    Not where I live, even brand new issues are over a fiver (£5 GBP), so $6 dollars an issue is unheard of - If you can get them for that, I'll take 35 - 44 (less #37), that'll be $54 bucks plus what...a $1,000 for shipping when you find out the real cost !

    I'm still happy with my purchase, I'm positive the seller won't be !

    I've got #45 − 63 when anyone is interested. I prefer trading for Ferrari/Bugatti/Motorsport books. Or make good offer. Shipping from Netherlands out of Europe is about $50

    Since #1 was reprinted, #2 is now the hardest to get. Expect prices north of $400 for that one....

    Maybe I should run around to the libraries and see if they can put me on a list of items of want. Before you sell or throw it away, I'll take anything Ferrari related please!:D
