The majority of the picks I made so far are still in print, or not that hard to find. If someone wants to buy Whipped Cream at a high price, no big deal...there are still used copies out there. It was in print continuously from 1988 until just recently.
And one can always "go vinyl" too.
All I can say about half.com and Amazon: report the violations. I, too, am tired of the crap these sellers pull on innocent buyers. Maybe I'm just getting old and grumpy, but I'm starting to be a perennial pain in the rear end when I see this kind of thing. If enough of us complain, something will get done.
On half.com, the latest is "condition spamming." Sellers of "brand new" products are realizing that their listings are buried deep among 40 others, so they'll list their product under Like New or even Very Good. I got an e-mail last week saying they'd removed one of my listings because I had a sealed "promo" item under Brand New, where it should have been under "Acceptable." Sorry...promo or not, if it's sealed, unplayed, unopened...its NEW by my standards. I lost out on their technicality...and yet they let these big mega-sellers post their new goods anywhere they feel like. We can see where their loyalties lie.
