Take the script to norbit. I am betting that it sold for much more than 20 dollars. But great/classic novels by historical figures that will always be remembered and studied never sold for that much, unless, of course, if they were turned into a movie ;)J - Beeziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01387028663370644741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3870753358375957551.post-35467250938705648172007-09-27T15:16:00.000-07:002007-09-27T15:16:00.000-07:0080 dollar physics workbook. half of it's blank WTF...80 dollar physics workbook. half of it's blank WTF!!!!<BR/>and if writing a book is takes no effort than i challenge you to write one (several hundred pages) within the next two years and then agree to only sell it for 5 bux.<BR/><BR/>Go!J - Beeziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01387028663370644741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3870753358375957551.post-34545029641478348102007-09-27T14:07:00.000-07:002007-09-27T14:07:00.000-07:00Yeah text books are a little much, but maybe its c...Yeah text books are a little much, but maybe its cuz they reflect how much work went into them. Having to verify every single fact and cite every source. As well as having to layout every page with diagrams or problems that look professional. Literature, on the other hand, takes little to no effort from just one person. ALL LITERATURE SHOULD BE SOLD FOR NO MORE THAN FIVE DOLLARS.Xtianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03289383245542074791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3870753358375957551.post-40739452326409286262007-09-27T10:07:00.000-07:002007-09-27T10:07:00.000-07:00suggested retail for harry potter = 18.99 or 19.99...suggested retail for harry potter = 18.99 or 19.99 for hardcover which is about average for new hardcover books. it was the asshole retailers who jacked up the price to over 40 dollars at times. fools. supply and demand couldn't even account for that price since the supply really wasn't that limited in the first place.<BR/>i don't like harry potter, but you can't pick on it in this case. books are books. you should mention fucking text books being hundreds of dollars. now that's bullshit. book stores are cartels.J - Beeziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01387028663370644741noreply@blogger.com
