Clue Book / Hint Book Rarities?

Is there a comprehensive list of Clue Book / Hint Books and their relative rarities?  I know Shadowgate is dirt common, Deja Vu and Uninvited are both more difficult to find, and I'm clueless on some of the others.  I also know that the Crystalis Clue Book is very valuable. 

The reason I ask is because I had an item in my watch list with a clue book I had never seen before and I thought it was overpriced.  Low and behold it sold by the 13th page view (even at $50) so I'm going to be very pissed if I missed a good deal because of my ignorance.  Please educate me image

    I know which one your talking about, you probly should have snagged that, I saw it when it was first listed but I don't want to spend money right now.

    ^ I wasn't looking for it or I would have. There's about 100 CIBs that I check ebay newly listed for every morning 8AM when I'm in the office. This game was actually a CIB that I needed and thus saw the Clue Book for it. I usually spend at least an hour or two getting some coffee, checking email and surfing eBay / NA image

    Jone PM me and I will tell you if you should have bought it. I have about 15 or so of the hint books.

    Jone, you should be pissed -- I bought the one you're referring to, and that was a steal. I've been looking for 3 years for that one image Ironically, I got two this week, and that one will be for up for trade.

    Eh, it's obviously much more appreciated in your hands if you've been looking for it for years image I just want to educate myself so I can grab them when I stumble across them. I don't have very many yet, but I can credit NA for "clueing" me in (pardon the pun) about the rarity of the Deja Vu hint book. Just waited a few months and grabbed one under $10 image
