I've edited a bit of the return from Alibris.com just for easy
readibility. So, Andy, $5- a good deal at any price.

I saw some used cookbooks at Brand Books in Glendale, California
today. They were asking $8- for books that are only $14- new at
Amazon.com.

I wanted to say that these bookdealers asking exorbitant amounts are
trying to deal them as antiques, but I guess "collectible" is a better
word.
