I'm worth $10,000 in large print
So today at Amazon.com (yes I was checking my stats) I saw something odd. Something I had never seen before. Today I saw a copy of My Summer of Southern Discomfort available for sale in large print. Although the book has always had a large print placeholder, to my knowledge it isn't available in large print. Being naturally inquisitive, I investigated. The book is for sale by a third party seller (not Amazon) and its price? $10,000.99. I love the 99 cents bit. You know, because $10,000 isn't quite enough.
To all of my visually impaired readers contemplating buying this large print copy might I suggest an alternative? Send me $10,000 (a savings of 99 cents!) and I will personally create a large print copy of the book for you. I'm guessing it's a new seller testing the system, but it's an odd way to go about it. Check it out here.

Plus, you'd think they might throw in free shipping for orders of, say, over $5,000!

You're right. No free shipping! And the copy isn't even signed! I sure hope the pages are made of gold.
