2009 Standard Catalog of Baseball Cards-WTF?

OK, I finally sat down to look over the new big book and right away there is a glaring problem. I turned to the Topps section in front and it appears that from 1948 through 1969 not one price has changed from the 2007 edition, on either the regular or oddball sets. I stopped looking after 1969 but the set, common and stars I spot checked had no changes in the past two years. Even the '68 3-D's, featured in a huge Olbermann SCD article earlier this year, reflected none of the information in said article.

Either old figures were used or SCD did not bother to look at any transactions over a two year period. For the price charged for this book and given the competition online, SCD has to do a better job. I could have saved forty bucks and just used my 2007 edition.
