Wally that must be a missprint the book new was $ 45-00 try for it on Ebay. I bought two pre GST days at a sale for $ 20-00 each for the club.
Harry Tomlinsons is a good one, as is Dan Bartons but I think you would be hard pressed now to find it. Colin Lewis is another.

Re: Book
$200.00!!!! What the - is the thing gold plated or something?
$253.59 is either a misprint or outright theft - it's even a paperback copy, not the original hardback copy.
Most Bonsai nurseries would have copies for sale. Try this link - the book is $49.00 - and available!!

Harry Tomlinsons book - The Complete Book of Bonsai is available at Amazon for $29.70 (I guess that'd be US$)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/bo ... =UTF8&pg=2
Dan Bartons book 'The Bonsai Book' is also available through Amazon from as little as $0.50 (all second hand ones):

I have a copy of Harry Tomlinsons Complete Book of Bonsai - 1990 edition that I'm prepared to let go if someone wants it. The information appears to be exactly the same as the later editions - maybe someone will know. The sleeve is a bit discoloured with age as are the edges of the pages, The hard cover under the sleeve is unmarked. What do you reckon it's worth guys?

Re: Book
Wally, Evilbay is still my second best friend, but as others have said I think most Bonsai Nurseries will either carry this book or be able to get a copy for you.
