I paid $45 for a 3 month subscription to the on-line Preston's Guide. I've tried three times now.... no luck. It couldn't even find a ten-year-old Burnham boiler.
Does this service ever work for anyone? Kenton Shepard, InterNACHI member # 04082383 Certified Master Inspector (CMI) InterNACHI Director of International Development Director of Green Building EXPERT WITNESS SERVICE Conventional and Log homes (303) 717-8940

They have an online guide for $15 per month. Ouch. That's expensive.

Hi Kenton,
I have both the Prestons CD and book and frankly I am not greatly impressed with either Russel and others keep telling me that the Carson Dunlop guide is better. $15 a month for the online feature sounds bloody expencive with the book only costing $80 ish and the CD around $120 Regards Gerry "To realize our true destiny, we must be guided not by a myth from our past, but by a vision of our future."

Considering how well it's worked so far I don't think I want to buy it at all, so I'm only out $45 instead of $95. So... there's bad news and good news.
