Lynne's search for "Knitting Lace" on the internet and getting a price of $95.00 
reminds me .....

I was recently searching for the publication "Introducing Traditional Bedfordshire 
Lace in 20
Lessons" by Barbara Underwood.  Amazon listed it as "out of stock" but listed a copy 
available from
an outside supplier at "Bargain, was $26.00, now $199.98".

I queried it with Amazon, got a standard computer generated answer.  Queried it again 
and was told
an outside supplier could list an out of stock book at whatever he liked.   I still 
believe that it
is a typo, but got fed up trying to talk to sense to Amazon (how could it be a 
"bargain"?), and sent
an email to the supplier.   No answer.

I have located the book in Australia in the meantime (thank goodness, also I prefer to 
buy locally
if someone here has gone to the trouble to stock something) and at a reasonable price

But I still don't think the Amazon advertised book was a "bargain"
