Also when this thread started - there were 2 Authorized Al's on eBay.

Now there are 7.

Yes because 7 people want the same pay day you got, and bidders want it "cheap" so they can try it too! But believe me, I don't blame you or them, I'd probably do the same.

Oh no - they are all going to price themselves down with that many on at once. Any ebayer knows you never list when your item is flooded already... or should.

As expected, there are a lot more copies of The Authorized Al on eBay since this episode aired, and it definitely seems to be impacting what sellers believe they can get for the book. I've seen several that mention that the book sold for $425 on Pawn Stars.

I've only seen the PDF version of the book, and I have to admit when I saw the book on the show it looked way more shinier and prettier than the digital version. But I don't think I'd ever pay more than $20 for it

I've had this book on my Amazon wishlist for months. During the time, there have always been a few copies in their marketplace in the $40-$80 range. In the days after the episode aired the cheapest price went from $150 to $300 to $500 to now $700. It's definitely benefiting from the Pawn Stars bump.

Not benefiting if it doesn't sell.

Is there a PDF copy still on the net?
Thanks!

There's a link to it on this thread, and probably on many other threads in this forum
