I don't see why you feel you "deserve" money back...as others have pointed out you saw it, you indulged yourself and got what you paid for...whether the price is worth it is a very subjective and completely different discussion without a doubt.

Well, I think most people feel a little pissed when they see something they just bought on sale for a lower price. Maybe you don't. (I'm a teacher - you probably make more money than I do!) Really, at this point, I'm most surprised by some people's reaction here to my vent. I thought I'd find more like-minded book lovers that already think that most ebook prices are too high. I guess not. It's certainly not the end of the (or my) world. Yes, lesson learned. Frankly, the farther I get into the book, the less it bothers me, because it's probably my favorite Bryson book so far. I'm so happy for you that it doesn't bother you to see something you just bought for sale at a cheaper price. Personally, I like stores that have a price guarantee, but to each his own.
