Unless you can find someone who has been in a closet for the last couple years the answer is, unfortunately, no.
Everyone HERE knows what they have been bringing which is why I will post this:
A hardcover JUST SOLD on Ebay for $189.16 and I just sold a soft cover edition a few weeks ago for almost $90.
Not very promising............

There are one or two on eBay now, but they won't likely be cheap. One is #6938370694.

I meet a man at an engine show, was talking to him about my jaeger and a few other things when he asked if I had yet obtained a copy of the BYB...I responded that no I had not because they were kind of expensive...he says "no, not realy, $40 is not to bad for all the info it provides." WOW... shoulda offered 50 for his copy! When I told him that they were going for well above 40 dollers he thought I was off my rocker!

Well I have a brand new spare copy if someone is interested for the money you talking about.
Will be nice to see the interest
