That's ridiculous. I read that book a long time ago. Is it out of print now? Someone is just trying to squeeze someone out of a lot of money by selling the used ones for $200, but who in their right mind would pay $1200?

Pay me $1200 and I'll write them their very own book! ;P

wow... can I sell mine for $200? LOL

that seems outrageous. I didn't realize it was out of print. Huh.

can't believe someone would pay that for it. ;)

That's insanity. Is the book really that good?

Uh ... nope. I off loaded it fairly shortly after I finished reading it.

However, appropriate icon is appropriate. :)

If someone truly paid $1200 for that, they'd need to find a nice cozy padded room. I gave mine away. It is not worth $10 let alone $200 or more.

I'm wondering if it's a scam. I mean, once they get your money, it's like a month before Amazon even considers trying to get your money back and by then, these folks could be in the wind. That is, if someone was crazy enough to actually go there.

Hell's bells, I'll undercut this guy and sell my copy for $1,000. Hear that! A $200 savings, and I'll pay shipping!

Geez, a person would have to be a quart low in the crankcase to pay that for ANY paperback.

LOL - I know right??? Just clicked that link again ... the best price is now a *measly* $198.00 - go figure ... maybe TPTB could finance the movie with used book sales alone!
