Exploring Baja by RV by Walt Peterson
Could someone explain why at one time this book was $19.99 and the cheapest one I can find now is $72.98? Isn't this a travel guide?

Well, since I didn't buy stocks or real estate... I decided to collect Baja books! With appreciation like this it ain't a bad way to make money?
Here are a few from AddALL.COM for Peterson's 'Exploring Baja By RV' c1996 which is a good book full of travel ideas and destinations... a companion
to Peterson's Baja Adventure Book. The cheaper ones are listed as not available! I have a perfect copy I paid $8 for at a book store. I will keep my
eyes out for another and let you know.

Hmmm, from rags to riches in Baja books! Not likely, as it will be hard for me to sell any of mine. I do give some away at my Viva Baja and the Baja
Cactus fiestas.

Thanks David. Appreciate any help. I'll bet your books are worth plenty now too. I was quite surprised at that price!

Yes, me too... it is a good book, but hardly a collectable classic at just a few years old. I think I have seen brand new ones still on the shelves
down here. Perhaps call bookstores in San Diego and Orange counties?
