Unless I already had determined that i wanted the book, probably not. However, I have bought most of my books from Amazon, since before they offered a peek inside, and in this case there was no "try a chapter" available. So I was pre-ordained to buy books unseen. Also, I'm not going to bother Amazon CS over 99 cents. Is it unfair that this one fraudalent nincompoop destroys for other serious indie authors? No doubt about that. But once burnt---
It just takes time to get over something like that.
