Hi :) Yes, a few 3rd party sites do sell the books. I think there is at least 1 that sells the printed books and delivers them through postal services.
It's all allowed within the copyright terms the writers chose (a Creative Commons license), as long as the prices are reasonable. Hmmm, possibly even if the charges are unreasonable but that might be a bit cheeky and in those cases we might want to help people find other sites more easily. There is some expectation that sites would send some small percentage of the profits to TDF or to one of the local users groups or to promote LibreOffice or something else that we would be happy with. The main aim is to distribute widely. So, it would be good for us to know where you were getting the guide from but more out of curiosity than anything else. Obviously don't give us any credit card details or personal info ! I don't think we can get the money back for you but we can, of course, give you access to the Free originals including the pre-releases https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications So, you can get all the 3.4 guides from there and/or some of the 3.5 ones. The 3.5 "Getting Started Guide" is not quite ready but you can get the individual chapters that are completed.
