so what? That is a new copy. I am finding you used copies, precisely because they are cheaper.

you can tell it is used because the condition is given, very good.

anyone can find a retail copy. that's why i gave you a specific bookseller and a specific book.

are you unfamiliar with the great site: abebooks.com?
