Absolutely.

In addition to the videos I mentioned, get both volumes of the "Unfair Advantage Letter Books." Also get the letters on disk if you can. Some of the offers come that way. I got my copies in a "trade" deal because I already had the bonus that was offered with a product I bought. I used a letter Pat McAllister wrote as the basis for my "seminar that never was." *g* (The letter was in the book. The letter sold but the problem was the fact that I didn't start promoting as early as I should have for several reasons.) Like most classics, the principles used in the book are timeless.

You'll find that a lot of those guys and gals "show up" on the videos. Sometimes they're there as speakers, sometimes not.

I haven't had much luck with this on eBay. What search terms do you use or what sections do you check out?

One time I found where one guy was selling several hundred dollars worth on one of the Buy and Sell forums. The price? $50 US plus S/H. I think it cost me $57.00 US or something like that. The cool part was that most of it was stuff I didn't have. *g*
