There is a third-party eBay seller offering various documents 1946-49 on eBay, most of them from 1946. Price STARTS at $39.95 for each bulletin or document offered. My personal opinion is that this is at least twice as high as it should be. Related to this are K-F magazine ads that start at between $21.95 and $34.00 that have appeared over the last several months. Again I feel they are overpriced by at least double.
I don't understand why the sudden overpricing in this stuff. Buyer reaction so far has been to ignore the items until prices come down.

He has dropped the price on most items to $19.95 starting bid.

The seller must have read your comments! :)

like so many other things, the Confidential Bulletins and other factory documents rarely show up on eBay. Rarely seen at general old car shows prior to COVID-19, this lack of visitility give the impression that our cars have to be all but extinct, impossible to find parts for and there isn't a club or other "support group" for owners. This is not true for those of us who own cars, but this is what Barbara & I heard from spectators we talked to at the shows we took our 1952 HJ Corsair deLuxe to after moving to WA and before COVID shut things down. These days, unfamiliar sellers tend to start high, and if there are no responses they can go down until they hit the proper price points.
Best prices for anything K-F seem to be member to member sales or at major club meets like National Conventions.

I saw the complete National run down in this month's eBulletin. Are you a member of KFOCI?

According to the latest information on the 2021 National hosted by the Eastern Division, the meet is still on. The KFOCI MONTHLY BULLETIN has information including a registration form for the various events, tours, etc. Barbara & I have our plane reservations, room reservations and registration. Unless there is an unexpected change in the COVID situation within New York State, the meet is a go.
