Here's a good one for suckers. Look up Art Palmer's "Cave Geology" at amazon.com. They
don't sell it themselves, evidently, but several third parties are advertising "new and
used" copies, the cheapest of which is $121.60. The book is in print at the publisher for
$37.95,
The really weird thing on Amazon is that in the Price at a Glance box in
the upper right corner of the Cave Geology sellers page, the list price of
$37.95 is given, with a line through it, and then the exorbitant resellers
prices are listed below. Normally the prices in the Price at a Glance box are
better deals than the list price, at least for books in print. It makes no
sense.
