    Hi all,
    Are these books quite rare? I have an opportunity to buy this, but, it isn't cheap and I'm unsure of its true value.
    Would someone have any idea of its worth.
    Thanks so much in advance. Screenshot_20221017_150805_Chrome.jpg Screenshot_20221017_150818_Chrome.jpg Screenshot_20221017_150835_Chrome.jpg Screenshot_20221017_150900_Chrome.jpg Screenshot_20221017_150929_Chrome.jpg

    I did a search of the sold Buddist Prayer Books on ebay and not much has sold in this category recently. I saw a few like yours for sale both there and on etsy but they don't seem to be selling right now. The prices ranged from 25$ and up.

    They have posted the text upside down, so I think they can't be sure of the value either.;)

    I see that Mongolian sellers sell them on ebay from US$ 9.99 up.
    Since Tibet is Chinese occupied, I imagine there are (countless?) fakes, but also looted books.
    Personally, I would steer clear of it, for various reasons.

    Ok thanks for the heads up on this one. It's quite pricey in comparison to what you've all said.
    Much appreciated
