Did I miss anything?

Connection with a drug cartel for money laundering?

Omnibus collections are seldom of any value but there are folks out there with way too much money and less sense than God gave a goat.

I'd like to find one of those guys myself.

Whut? I don't understand, seller make the price of their own.

[taylor_memorial]

No: since Amazon changed their plan with books, prices there are a bit higher. Thriftbooks, for example, will charge $5+ for a MMPB they sell for $3.59 here.

Selling prices range from $1.99 + shipping to $67.++ for the person who will never sell it because there are close to a hundred copies on line.

Plus there are 15 books in the series, so this is hardly the complete series.

Looks like the seller raised the price after selling one, either because it's currently out of stock, or possibly in an attempt to drum up interest. If nothing else, a few folks have clicked on the link. I wonder if that skews the actual trending price statistics?

Haha. It fooled me!
