A book to covet -JA in Facsimile

Having ben tipped off by Mary-L, I was puttering around in ABE and Amazon US used, and discovered that there are still copies (not new) of the wonderful book Jane Austen's Letters in Facsimile available. This book has facsimlie editions of all of her known letters, scraps and signatures, and since all these known letters are scattered throughout the globe, and way beyond the price of ordinary mortals, the book itself seems to be quite a bargain. It seems to run at about $150 U.S.- a sum which I count as an expensive luxury, but not absolutely out of reach.

How much would you pay for something like this?
