Oh. So that's where it was.

OK, I already knew I'm an idiot -- I don't have to be reminded. As it turns out, my copy of The Folksinger's Guitar Guide (long out of print, not sold in stores, and which I've been searching the house for for over a year now, on and off) has been sitting on a shelf in my bedroom all this time. The same shelf where I used to keep my filk binder, as a matter of fact.

Dumb bear.

By the way, when did music publishers start intimidating stores into refusing to sell used books? They won't even take returns, it seems. Those eyetracks just destroy the resale value, you know...

Better a found book than a still lost one ^_~

As for selling of used books...it's mainly because of money.
They only get money for new books sold.
Once the book is on the market, used book money trail is between consumers and the used book store. Nothing goes to the publisher.

Fairly common on college textbooks for new editions with VERY few changes if any... (shhhh)

Its an old law of psycho physics. If it is out in plain site, you will not be able to see it....

Happens to me all the time.
