I've been tempted by Amazon's Summer sale and I still intend to pick up a few more things, but the list of candidates has become vastly cut down after I discovered that some of the more tempting prospects come in Topaz format (mostly the interesting-looking academic-ish stuff, aargh).
I don't care how cheap they are, I'm not paying for Topaz format (unless the book is exceptional and that's the only way I can get it when I want it, which these aren't).
Also, anything over $1.99 that I can get at the library, I don't need to buy unless it's a worthy well-reputed book of the sort I would normally buy. And I don't think I actually see many of those in the sale list, though there are a few prospects that I might go look up at the library to check if they actually do merit my money (a process which I suspect will eliminate quite a number from the potential list).
