Look at this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/1589398300/ref=dp_olp_1/103-5284882-9668611?%5Fencoding=UTF8

My book is going for as much as $45, and they're all in the same brand-new condition. I think the factory cost of the book is about $13. Moreover, the company selling "used" copies has two different prices for copies that have the exact same description and are both, in fact, brand new.

Jackasses.

I kinda like it when things like Dilbert books are going for 1 cent, though.

Geez I didn't know you were a published author Seth. I should probably buy it just 'cause.

Yeah, B&N have it online, but not in their stores to my knowledge.

No pictures. :( Except for a really really terrible one of myself on the back.

You can buy the book at www.coeternalism.com/book1.html anytime, Terra! That is, any time before I run out and you have to look elsewhere! And I'd sign it for you just because you're a sweety, which is just what I told IS.

No, as you guessed there were more realistic reasons--I basically just did it to fluff my CV for grad school. I don't even see my first check for it until next month.

I already got it. Do I just send it to that address? I'll pay to have it sent back. :)

That was the thing, they weren't selling them used. They just bought a brand-new copy of my book, advertised it as such and charged a 100%+ markup.
