Russel Kingston's work might have gotten him an Australia Day honor for services to aviculture but he's not going to impart knowledge to too many people if his books normally cost $400. I'm with Diane on this one.

be a great book to have in the collection but not at that price.
looks like someone has got hold of a copy and realised that its a wanted item.
add a signature and jack up the price.
not worth what they are asking though

I don't think Russell would be too pleased if I did though.
