Review from a shopper who 'Hated it'
From: Posted: Jan 10, 2009 Type: User Review Images great, but lacks substance

Boy do I wish that the "Search Inside the Book" included the foreword by the author. This book is for JEWELRY MAKERS AND DESIGNERS, not for serious gem dealers or purchasers/appraisers. Little information on how to accurately class stones....

Review from a shopper who was 'On the Fence'
From: Posted: May 29, 2007 Type: User Review Appraising is not really addressed

This book is rich in accurate images of gems and minerals and has a scientific review of chemical composition, hardness and refractive properties. It is not, however, a guide for appraisal. I have seen a small booklet that determines the carats of...

The good news: this book has thousands of photos of ceramic items with their backstamps. The bad news: there are many inaccuracies of company names, typographical errors, errors of dating, and other errors. Given the over 7000 photographs in the...

Right off the bat: I agree that the omission of blotters and assorted other collectibles from this guide is a gaping omission as big as a barn. I hardly use this guide anymore for several reasons:

1) The back index is as bad as they come....

Review from a shopper who was 'On the Fence'
From: Posted: Nov 18, 2003 Type: User Review Great resource, but are the prices realistic?

I have owned most editions of this book, and as a resource for researching Coca Cola memorabilia, I would have to say it is unsurpassed. I haven't seen any other guides come close in the number of items shown.

I do question the pricing of these...

Review from a shopper who 'Loved it'
From: Posted: Mar 05, 2009 Type: User Review Great visual reference

As a reader of Millers Guide in the '80s and '90s I can say that the new format is much improved and more usable. The "deep dives" into the anatomy of a particular item are a great addition. Keeps up with current trends, adding new sections on...

Review from a shopper who 'Hated it'
From: Posted: May 13, 2007 Type: User Review Antiques to few.

I was disappointed with this book, it doesn't show different examples of the same company. Too many item from other parts of the world, not enough from the USA... This book is more of a picture guide. Not enough detail. I'm not impressed.

Review from a shopper who was 'On the Fence'
From: Posted: Jun 09, 2007 Type: User Review Not what I expected.

The guide has a lot of pictures and very little in description of the items. Nothing on the era that I was looking for. Wish I had gone to the bookstore and looked at it first.
