Hi Trevor,
Did a search of this book at abebooks.com and this shows this book at $259

It is a lot to be asking for a book that is way out of date, however, things are worth what people will pay. They may ask for that much, but I would't pay it. Even though it may be rare, only a true collector would pay that much; certainly not someone that wants to build a telescope.
