I didn't think you were being snarky, to use GoSharks term.
I am still somewhat confused as to why you don't think jbcohen's post was pertinent since both of you were saying that different prices were due to different publishers! The first sentence of your explanation for the different pricing was:

jbcohen's post just seemed to expound on your reasoning to show

Oh well, I think you both gave good explanations!
