    Should I get the 6th Edition of the Cherry Picker Guide?

    When I left the hobby in 2014, I gave away or sold most of my library and supplies. Rebuilding it again. I have the 5th edition Cherry Picker now. Is it worth getting the 6th edition? What made me think of it, is when I was visiting ANACS and was looking at some old orders from 2012-2014 and I saw some side notes saying this particular variety is not longer referenced in the CPG. Are there enough changes to warrant the newer edition?

              I would not sell mine for $150.

              I recently found a 5th Ed at an estate sale for $5. That was a surprise.

                Just be patient and one will come along at a reasonable price. But with what you have and this site we should be able to fill in any questions in the meantime.

                  That's what I figure too.

                    From what I saw on eBay, you could sell your old one and almost pay for the new one....crazy

                      Can you still get a good price for it if you circled 25% of the listings and wrote "Bullshit!!" next to them?

                          Every now and then you can find out of date items at a coin show. We have the show in St. Louis the 11th-13th. I will look again since we usually have two dealers selling books there. This was the show a few years ago I bought a bran new 2nd addition RPM book for $20. ALOT nicer than my original - no binder copy from 20 years ago... Will not part with it even though I have a CD...

                            Oh wow, I didn't know the 5th Ed was going for so much. Gotta pop it up onto ebay. Amazing.
