I agree. The Harry Potter books cost round$15.00-$20.00 but they are several hundred pages and were in hardcovers besides. I paid round $45.00 for a copy (in hardcover) of Shakespeare's complete works back in 1989 but that was a special case as was my set of "The story of Civilization" by Will & Ariel Durant. I paid right round $45.00 for the complete 11 Vol. set (a used set) but since individual Volumes cost $25.00-$30.00 a piece brand new I considered it a bargain. Especially as the only other place I've seen the set is at the public library. But $12.95 for a 49 page book? That is way over the top. The most it should have gone for was $4.00 or $5.00 I would think.
