Jason MishelowI think that one of the book trades major advantages is really what I will call geographic supply problems. I live in Milwaukee WI a mid major city. I have pretty much exhausted all of the bookseller within a 100 mile radius- and didn;t find much there in the 1st place. None of the sports seller in my area carry and books and no shows have a signifiacant selection. Therefore my only option is a bookselling site like ABE. I am really at the point that if I would want to buy I either find an undiscovered gem, I overpay or I just hope that something shows up on EBAY. I think that is how ABE gets away with it- for many people if they want the book its the only option
Also to follow up on a different but related thread- Max that 1863 book- I think the suspense has grown enough
