Henschel HS-129 Panzerjager book by Martin Pegg

Hi - I sold a copy on eBay about a month ago for £175.  I had a reserve copy that then sold to the next highest bidder for £170.

Honestly - you are not going to find this cheap unless you stumble across it in a bargain bin.  You certainly won't get it for less than £100 - bear in mind it cost £60 when released.  There's a copy on amazon.co.uk right now for £175, I'd go with that.  I can understand you wanting to find a bargain but consider this - the extra cost is TOTALLY worth it - it's one of the best Luftwaffe books ever released.

In a shameless plug, I am currently selling a copy of JV44 The Galland Circus - why don't you watch it & see what it goes for.  It has 3 days to run.  I sold another copy at the same time I sold the Hs129 book & that too went for £170

good luck

so my other copy of JV44 went fro £160 this time - a good indication of what you can expect to pay for the first 2 volumes in the classic publications series

Thanks, I have seen a couple in the $275-295 range on Amazon lately.  This is the only book I need to complete my set, but I am not in a big hurry so I may get lucky and find something in the low to mid $200 range.

I've got a copy of both books in excellent condition....make me an offer I can't refuse in a PM...

Ay caramba - why are these books going for $200+ ??????

Well in my case its because I signed the dust-jacket...

I believe it is considered to be the definitive book on the HS-129,  and this publisher (Classic) seems to never reprint a title no matter how desireable it has become. Their JV-44 and HO-229 titles are also pretty expensive.

Wonder why the 129 book is so sought after???

...just wondering...

I have two titles from them: the Hs129 and the JV44 books...

Just like the real Hs129... low production numbers I suppose. When I hear stories/prices like these I wonder why the publisher (is this guy still around??) doesn't sell a digitized version, especially when you're talking about something that is a tiny niche market - people who want details on a German tank-buster.

That being said, I've found some books (that I honestly couldn't find "real" copies of) as pdfs online & flip through them on my iPod when needed - but I prefer a book in my hand to pixels on a screen.

Yeah, there were a few guys trying to track one down to buy in here recently...

Now that my ESCI Henschel is done, I'm thinking of picking up the Hasegawa kit with some AM bells & whistles, see if I can go nuts detailing it. Do you still have that Pegg book? May be interested - PM me when you get a chance,

PM inbound!
