4 out of 5 stars Avon Collectibles   August 29, 2008
Mike B.
I found this book to be helpful in determining the values of most of the pieces in an Avon collection that was inherited. Unfortunately some were not but they were minor items. All in all a very informative book for the serious collector.


2 out of 5 stars Missing Information   August 9, 2008
Kathleen Marino (Parsippany, NJ USA)
I bought this book with the idea that it would be a valuable resource for me when I sell some of my collectibles. While I did find most of my items and the current market value is there for me to sell or get insurance, the one thing I needed most was the issue price. I have no clue as to what I paid 25 years ago. No one thought to keep receipts back then. Since these items are considered collectible, IRS regulations require that it be reported on Schedule D and you pay tax on the gain. If you have no idea as to the cost, you end up paying tax on 100% of the sale price! Who wants to do that!!! If this book contained the issue price, that could be used as a cost basis.


5 out of 5 stars currect edition of book   July 18, 2008

I am an Avon rep and have always used this book. I ordered the current edition for myself and another person who collects Avon items
