Despite the title of this post, I have not yet gone looking for the original, British Book-Prices Current (BPC) and Book Auction Records (BAR)—the other two standard sources for information on book sale records and the second-hand trade in books in general, but I will. And, if I find any, I will add them below.
[UPDATE 11 July 2013: I have added BPC and BAR now. The Internet Archive has outdone itself in trying to hide some of these files, many of which are catalogued as A Winter in North China (!). I was only able to locate some of the below by guessing URLs based on sequences of correctly-catalogued files. As I use the files I will re-arrange them so that, where there are duplicates, the best files appear first. (Best being the cleanest colour scans, with text and pdf files available.) I have reluctantly included a few Hathi Trust files, which combine appalling catalogue layout with an even worse user interface.]

NB: final four volumes of ABPC in this list probably should not be available for download, and may not be available for download for long, for copyright reasons. (On the Hathi Trust catalogue page these files are described—when you can find them—as "Limited (search only).")

Have you thought about doing your own cataloging on OpenLibrary.org? You can make lists and add other useful data (as well as link directly to the Internet Archive reader for the book).
Thank you!
