Ebay might be a good place to check. Also check out some churches in your area. They may have old Bibles on hand that they are looking to replace or that aren't being used. Good luck with your search!

If you just do a Google Search for "Antique Bibles" or "Rare Bibles"
you will see that the world's largest dealer of rare and antique Bibles
is The Bible Museum, Inc. at: WWW.GREATSITE.COM
Bibles printed in the 1600's start under $4,000.
Bible sprinted in the 1500's start under $7,000.
Facsimile Reproductions of these ancient Bibles start at well under $200.

Candy S,
If you have money, then those high dollar auctions, the names are escaping me at the moment, should get you one with a history richer than you might expect. Is it Christy's?
