Can you get MCT books used/cheap?

I was all set to order today, but then the sticker shock! Anyone know of a place to buy this curriculum used? It's a big commitment for something I don't even know will be the right fit for us.

Ebay.

I've gotten good deals on the teacher's manuals on homeschoolclassifieds, but I've been buying piecemeal.

I've gotten both Island and Town used on the classifieds here, full sets (student and teacher versions of everything) for roughly $100ish.  It's still pricey, but at least it's a little easier to swallow.  And after the first level, the price was much easier to stomach--it was such a glorious experience!

 

ETA--I think Island was more like $80, but CE in Town is much bigger than Building Language, so I didn't mind paying more.
