The only people who care about the book's price is the people writing the fake reviews, not the people reading them.

As I said before, it's like kids peeing in the pool: It's not illegal, but it certainly isn't helping.
In this case, it's the agency 6 + Apple that are peeing in the pool and we the customers are the ones who want to use the pool.
