I'm looking for an autographed copy of one of Robert Heinlein's books.
 I'm not particular about which one.  It seems that he would only sign
books for Red Cross donors which would make it all the more rare.

I'm offering $10 (8 via google + 2 tip) for a link to an auction (ebay
and the likes) or a connection to someone offering an autographed copy
for under $200.

As you are no doubt aware, books signed by RAH sell for rather high
prices - sometimes in the five-figure range! Your best bet is a signed
paperback. I have located several options for you in the
$200-and-under range. I found one on eBay, and the others I located by
searching the ABEbooks database.

Robotguy, you've piqued my curiosity. I didn't see any signed
Heinleins for $125 on that site. Where do I look?
