Books on Amazon are appropriately priced. The pricing printed on books however is a rip off.

I know the webm is related. But This was the price of what the last book I bought was and now I understand why piracy exist.
Michael Russell
$3, The Portable D.H. Lawrence.
I think new hardcovers and trade paperbacks are much more expensive than they should be. There are paperbacks with fewer than 200 pages priced at $16 or more. They do tend to be more fairly priced on Amazon if you don't mind supporting the evil empire.

10 bucks for a volume of Gay Talese's essays. It should have been cheaper, but I've had a problem finding his work in used bookstores, I guess people just don't read him anymore. Powell's in Portland really spoiled me, Strand in NYC barely holds a candle to it.

I bought 3 books on a thrift book website for $14. It took like a week to come in but the shipping was free. Also, the condition was good on all of them, one was a hard back and it still had its dust cover.

Landon Morgan
I paid around 30 euros for an edition of Dream of the Red Chamber, because the one in my native language is fucking shit.
Though I usually pay ~1-4 Euros for a book.

I bought the Debroy trans of the Mahabharata box set from Penguin and it was like $80. Don’t regret it. Otherwise, I am willing to spend up to $10 for the average used book, have extreme hesitation as the price exceeds $20. If it’s something I really want and can’t find a pdf of or it’s otherwise rare, I’ll spend as much as is necessary. The Mahabharata is the most expensive one I’ve bought ever, though

Anthony Howard
$13 for a hardcover copy of being and time
seemed reasonable

sometimes amazon hides cheap used books. use amazon plus the book title in a google search and you get more options.
