Since there was no link or attachment to TinMan's post, I thought I'd provide it below. Essentially, Amos is discounting their 2013 Scott Specialized Catalog of US Stamps by $10, to a new price of $59.99 (formerly $69.99). While it may be a good discount for some, what they don't tell you is that the price went up $10 in the 2013 catalog year, so essentially, they're only discounting it to the price level it was in the past several years. It sounds like they may have over-produced the printing and are left with too many extra catalogs to sell before the 2014's come out.
http://www.amosadvantage.com/scotto...=specializedIf you really want to save some $ on these catalogs, I'd wait to see if they come out with some limited "scratch and dent" catalogs later in the year. They are typically more heavily discounted and the minor "damage" is relatively insignificant especially as a collector starts thumbing through all of the pages on a daily basis.
