Al Capizzo Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I checked BN.com and Amazon's used books for Mike Plaxco's "Shooting From Within". Current price is around $200.00! I was shooting IPSC when this book came out, but I "couldn't afford it" at the time. Still can't afford it. Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uscbigdawg Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Post a WTB on the classified here and on USPSA and I guarantee you'll have a seller pop up in no time. Too, check out E-Bay and Gunbroker. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdj Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I got one recently for ~$40. Like all used books, the price varies depending on whether the seller views it as "collectable" or "used"! Keep looking for awhile. Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Capizzo Posted July 16, 2004 Author Share Posted July 16, 2004 Thanks for the Ebay link. I checked them last week but not recently. I've got my bid in. Wish it was "Buy It Now" Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flexmoney Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 That book has been listed on Amazon for that same $200 for a long time. I think people will just put a big price on a book that they happen to have...in hopes that somebody will want it bad enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nik Habicht Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Al, If none of that works, PM me your address, and I'll dig up my copy and mail it to you as a loaner for as long as you need it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 Dang, you guys had me thinking my SFW was worth $200. I've just started re-reading it after initially dismissing it as 'BE-lite'. It's not at all, although many of the same concepts are there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiG Lady Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 I've talked an eBay seller or two into a Buy-it-Now move... It's possible, then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MBaneACP Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 I ran into Plaxco at the Sportsman Team Challenge a few weeks ago. He's pretty much recovered from the spider bite (brown recluse; nearly killed him) and shooting extremely well. I mentioned that my old signed copies of SHOOTING FROM WITHIN had been borrowed and never found their way home. He sent me a new copy, with the note that copies could be purchased at $24.95 + $5.05 S&H from: J. Michael Plaxco 2109 Oakcrest Court Corinth, TX 76210 or call Mike directly at: 940-321-8680 BTW, speaking as an author myself, by the book directly from Plaxco. He wrote it. He deserves all the bucks! MB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Capizzo Posted July 19, 2004 Author Share Posted July 19, 2004 Thank again everyone. Even though I'm currently high bidder (at $11.06!) on Ebay, I believe I'm going to buy one from Michael directly also. Who know's, I might lose one copy.
