It would be nice if you specified in the descriptions of the books the size of the book and number of pages as I have seen with other booksellers. I am a bit confused by the wide discrepancy in the prices of books. For instance, the book I purchased ranged from $125 to $375 for what appeared to be the exact same book. The description stated that it was oversized, but it was only 8" x 10", with 2 to 4 reproductions per page, making them quite small. I thought I was getting a larger book for $125.
