Code:
if preview_to_upgrade in trash:
  do not terrify customer by putting purchased_book there
The premise for doing what they do is admirable. A library full of previews and seemingly duplicate books would be confusing and messy. But no one should have to go rooting through the trash for a brand new purchase.
