Because bots are driving the pricing - not people.
On the reverse side - there was a thread here previously in which a bot system drove up an out of print DTB to over $73k (I think that number is correct) in a bot vs bot pricing war.
And guess what?
None of those bots were attached to companies/people who actually had the book for sale.
So, I can understand his frustration - how is a computer algorithm dictating my pricing structure?
