Sorry I'm not participating in this discussion (simply no time!) but I'd like to once again say how much I enjoy looking at Mr. 'Flagg's' bookcase; oh yes, and the contents of the bookcase too;

I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.
And the people bowed and prayed, to the cell phone god they made...
Firstly, my answers are based on my own personal experience of buying these books. I have bought them all during the last 6 years, and I rarely pay high prices. (I am Scottish)
Secondly, I have based the availability on sales from Betts Bookstore during the reign of David.
e.g. Betts has sold 13 x Regulators S/L recently, so it is fairly common. The cheapest one was $500.
e.g. Betts has sold 17 x Desperation S/L recently, so it is fairly common. The cheapest one was $225.

The later ones I got straight from the publishers.
Based mainly on me perusing eBay and participating in "Calvin's Corner" threads.
Please choose one option for each item.
A - This item rarely ever comes on the open market, and when it does, it is very expensive.
5, 10, 11, 13, 15, 19, 57, 62, 72, 73, 76, 79, 81, 83. Some of these, like 24, 76, 79, 81, and 83 I don't see come up very often at all (category A) but when they do they're not what I would consider "very expensive" b/c there doesn't seem to be a big demand. Some I think actually sell for less than publisher's price (category C?). "Market value" price (category B) is a tautology. If it sells, by definition, that *IS* the market value price. I just stuck all these in category A based on me not seeing them on eBay very often.
B – This item can be found on the open market every now and then, and when it does, it always gets a fair, market-value price.
1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 9, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 23, 24, 26, 27, 29, 30, 36, 36, 43, 48, 49, 51, 58, 60, 63, 71, 74, 91, 94, 95, 99. Some "every now and then" but others quite common; but these, to me, are the ones that are "holding their own" value-wise.
C – This item can be found very easily on the open market, and most times for a very low price.
6, 22, 25, 28, 31, 39, 42, 44, 50, 53, 61, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 75, 77, 78, 80, 82, 84, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 92, 97, 98. These seem to be on eBay all the time at prices that seem to get lower and lower as time goes by.
D – I am not familiar with this item enough to rate it fairly.
8, 17, 21, 32, 33, 34, 35, 38, 40, 41, 45, 46, 47, 52, 54, 55, 56, 59, 85, 93, 96. Many of these are UK editions (which I don't follow, track, or care about). And guitars or audiobooks.

Yay! Someone else voted! Lol
My head hurts if I have to think for more than 20 seconds!
You should try bursts of energy with only twenty seconds each.
Every other day-3 reps with 10 bursts-got to get in shape.
Bump. Interest for the Collector Awards seems to be dwindling. I'm unsure why. Please participate, people! Round Three is for the UK First Editions, Round Four is for the Signed Limited, Lettered Editions, and so on until we crown a champion. That's the idea anyway. I'd like to GET to a Round Three or Four, so please participate, thank you. I'm really looking forward to the Promo Item Round, but maybe that's just me.

And that's it ... yay. To all those who participated, thanks. If and when we do this again I'll start with UK First Editions, follow that with Signed Limited, Lettered Editions, and after that, we get onto the good stuff, lol.
I wish. There just isn't enough interest. But no worries, we'll all be here forever and ever, so there's always a chance I'll start up the Collector Awards again.
