    E-bay could be a blessing or a complete disaster... Letterpress is hot right now so buying a pristine complete typeface will cost $$$ not to mention the shipping costs involved. A great deal of the sellers have no actual idea as to what they are selling and have polished/ground down the type down so it "looks pretty"...
    anything that is not "type high" is useless... type high =.918"

    again finding a seller that is knowledgeable enough to sell you a clean case of type on e-bay is rare and if you do you will have to pay $$$ briarpress is a good resource but complete typefaces will cost $$$ for the typeface alone then shipping will be an issue unless you can pick it up yourself.
