I have no particular issue with an error every 4000 words at those prices. It's when there are errors on every page, as with "Skyfall", that I'm moved to write to the publisher to express my displeasure.
I certainly don't blame you HarryT. I'd have been upset if I had bought a copy of the book in question and found it to be riddled with errors as well. At least the publisher is willing to own up to the problem and fix it.
