Can someone please make this into emote form? It would be better than the current one with overt Nazi imagery on it.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
What do you expect? Books are generally irrationally expensive. You can read it audiobook or pdf form very easily, though, luckily.
I think they are referring to the price being 14.88 --> 1488 --> 14 words + hh
I see, silly
Its on Annas archive btw.
Meh. Amazon is really lazy, I think pretty much all their pricing is done by algorithms. They raise it, lower it, etc in response to scraping other prices online as well as proprietary indicators like trying to coax people into purchasing, supply, etc. It's that today but next week or a month it could be 13.98 or 15.29.
Now Walmart. Their rollbacks always go to 88 cents, so any $15 items become $14.88 and I remember last time I was in one seeing a bunch of $14.88 items in the middle of isles and kind of doing a double take. Now that's a price point a human being set. They chose 88 versus 99 or 89 or 87 cents or anything else.
I love that it's available on CD lol
