I have put my softcover copy of Chet Atkins: Me and My Guitars on ebay

That´s a fair price. Amazon is much more expensive.

Wow... I had no idea they were getting that expensive. I think I paid the suggested retail $30 .. perhaps 5 years ago.

Yep...I've got two of them, in mint condition. I think I paid about twenty bucks each, on eBay...

I'm surprised too. When did they go out of print? And on a related issue, I have #83 of the hardback edition. Does anyone have any idea of what that might be worth?

"worth" prices on any item can fluctualte depending on supply and demand. Ebay is always a good way to see what people are willing to pay for a given item. Just remember what they ask and what they get is not always the same thing

I just went to eBay and used the Advanced Search feature and searched for the title - exact words exact order - in the completed listings and several of the paper backs came up...there was a little difference in price that each of them brought when sold and one didn't sell. There were no hard backed ones displayed.
I hope this helps.

Thanks for the links. I saw the hardcopy on eBay which got me to wondering about mine.

An interesting side note; it's also available as an eBook:
