Really, some of the prices on abebooks and used dealers via Amazon are silly.

Indeed they are. I have seen my “Gold-Plated Porsche” book offered for $1,000 used. (I have 40 in a closet upstairs if anybody would like to send me the value of a small Mercedes…) Also for one penny plus $3.99 shipping.

I don’t know what’s going on, but it has nothing to do with reality.
