    Got a reply from the Fairfax Book people.

    "Hello Mary:

    Unfortunately, the online posting of specials pricing for the Spring 2007 sale has been delayed. Nevertheless, we want to notify you as to the price for the Prius book.

    The Reston Friends will offer this item for $100.00 on members night (Thu 4/26/07). If this book goes unsold, we would like to offer this item to you for $75.00 plus shipping.

    Please advise if you are still interested in acquiring this book. As always, all sales proceeds go to support our local library, the Reston Regional Library in Reston, VA.

    Thank you,
    Pamela Chin [email protected]
    Treasurer, Friends of the Reston Regional Library"

    Spring 2007 book sale.

    So if you want a hard copy, here's your chance. I'm going to pass as I already own a copy.

    The $100 and $75 are typos right? :eek:

    If not I think if I ever want a hard copy I will just print my PDF out.

    yeow!! That's pretty steep for a free book. But it's no longer available so if you want it bad enough I guess that's a price to start.

    I've got 2 copies...one a little worn, one mint, never had the cover open.

    No. Not typos.

    Remember, this is a fund raising event for the local library.

    I have never paid over $55 for a book, and that was a Bible with a leather cover and name embosed on it.

    I have been reading the PDF. It is very interresting, enjoyable reading. Classic literature it is not.

    holy crap! I thought that book would be worth $20, maybe $30 tops. An entire, full illustration and in colour, book of the history of Lexus (and it's a hardcover) is only $50.
