Most often, however, the deal is better at eBay. If I lose the bid, I can always go back to order it on Bibliofind. Yearbooks and Annuals. You may just find it in an auction. CD-ROMs and Software.
People often auction off CD-ROMs they no longer want.
I have acquired several titles this way. The selling of software products has some limitations in online auctions, but you can sometimes find special bargains. As you conduct research, you must always concentrate on using maps from the period in which your family lived in an area. Historical atlases and gazetteers are certainly available for bid, but so are individual maps. Many sellers auction off old maps, even those from service stations like Esso, and some even dissect old atlases and sell individual maps.
