Is Audio Bluebook dead?

It appears to me that Audio Bluebook is no longer being updated.

For example: Sonus Faber Venere is a really popular speaker and I have seen many (100s?) listed on Audiogon over the last ~2 years. However, I can not find any historical sale prices for these speakers in Audio Bluebook.

I am pretty sure it is not me searching incorrectly because I have been able to find historical data on older products (sold on Audiogon prior to ~ 2013).

Is Audio Bluebook really dead? Or am I just suffering the after effects of Saturday night?

Thanks

Brett

I would urge caution when using Hifishark, but it is helpful when searching for hard to find gear.
I just successfully bought some speaker cables from Ebay Germany that I would never have seen without Hifishark.

Why limit yourself to Audiogon?

I subscribed for a few days and cancelled. One problem was that models are missing. I also did not really understand what the price information was representing. Another problem is that the prices of models I have been following prior to my subscription are not accurate in the bluebook.

I agree that Audiogon bluebook is not accurate. They even can`t get the production dates and retail prices right. For certain brands it`s total mess there.

Thanks for all the feedback. I have to wonder why I'm still paying $100 per year ?
