Thanks, Rene, for the reminder, and a "ditto" from me:

Two weeks ago, I was seeking a particular (non genealogy) book, which I found
at a Barnes & Noble used book link, two copies available at $54 and $46. I
tried to place the order, but couldn't get the shopping cart to the checkout
and finally gave up in frustration, exited the site to start over. Meanwhile,
just out of curiosity, I checked a generic link from Google and found my
book, new, for $10. I ordered that and two others by the same author and,
when they arrived yesterday, found a note that this author's books and
several others were on sale -- I wound up paying $5 for a book I had
attempted to purchase secondhand for $46. As Rene said, "caveat emptor."

Merry
