or you might have a nasty accident.
my lovely agent Jen alerted me to this
and after i mopped up the spilled tea
i thought i'd share the giggle with my gentle readers
do read the fine print, it's so funny! |
in the words of the immortal Darryl Kerrigan
"tell him he's dreaming"
now had i been a business person
i could have been flogging ecoprint franchises...
just think of the forests i could save
if i were able to earn sums like that
and think of the headaches i would have had
doing my tax.
thanking goodness for small mercies
and Amazon for the laugh
and
if you're looking a copy of Second Skin
it's being reprinted and on the way
+
the Book Depository will let you know when it's in.
Well India - worth every penny! I am glad however that I was able to purchase it in my price range.....

ReplyDeleteI've seen this before, but I love the second photo with how little it can cost you when you sell it back! What happens is the price is increased by a computer program based on the highest price listed. When the price goes up, another seller's program ups its price, and they go back and forth, all automatically. I think the fault in the program is when there is no upper limit, or a very high one. One of them has to stop somewhere!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laugh.

Maybe I could sell my copy when the price reaches 10,000. I'd gladly give the proceed to you so you could stay home for a little longer than just re-packing.
ReplyDeleteMy goodness!! I have both books. Maybe I need to take insurance out on them. lol
ReplyDeleteThar's gold in them thar books, I mean hills.
ReplyDeleteFun!
ReplyDeleteWhen you go directly to Amazon and type in the title, look at the second page...there's one listed from the same seller for $14,422.14. Plus $3.99 shipping. I wonder if I call them and ask, if they'll throw in the shipping for free, LOL.
ReplyDeleteyep, good warning, because i did laugh. hard.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the seller is employing his/her three-year-old to do data entry...
ReplyDeleteIt's a special price for those with math anxiety!
ReplyDeletefunny thing is, i was trying to purchase this book a couple of days back, and wrote to amazon about the choke price they were asking...glad you got to see it for yourself.
