Keep in mind, though, y'all are likely buying
primarily novels and/or big name press products,
whereas the bulk of my collection is university press
nonfiction. Better-made pbks (LOC standards rule,
okay), sometimes available simultaneously with the 1st
ed., and FAR cheaper (by half to a fourth) than cloth
...
But I'll get anything in cloth if that's the only way
I can get it, esp. upon publication, so ...
Seriously, though. YOU try moving a two-storey house
full o' books, sans the house ...
