Would you spend $100 for a monster book?

I just saw the announcement of Mongoose's new monster book ( http://www.icv2.com/articles/home/6830.html ). While I'm considering getting the Worlds Largest Dungeon, I really doubt I'd spend $100 on a monster book. If so, it would have to be at least 80% useful.

Would you?

No, but I normally wouldn't spend $5 on monster book (only 3 of the 50+ gaming books I own are monster books, and that includes a retired MM3.0) ...

I have more than 3 monster books, but I just cannot imagine spending $100 on one. In fact, I am having a hard time imaginging what book I'd spend $100 on...

No. And when I say no, I mean "OH HELL NO."

just saying it has monsters is not enough info. Once the book ius out and I get to see exactly what it has in it and the quality I will decide.

No. Nope, nuh-uh, not even a little bit. Even if I could find a good use for each and every monster, I probably still wouldn't get it, 'though it'd be more $-efficient than buying little ones.

No way. I've got plenty of monsters books and I've not spent $100 on all of them together.

Weighing it against other gaming stuff I could buy with $100, probably not.

I've got all the monsters I need in the Monster Manual 3.0. The stats cover a wide variety of CRs, and I can always simply change the description of the monster to make new ones. Heck, I don't think the players realized they were fighting Warhorses the whole time last session...
