It would be nice if more of the Travis McGee titles dropped in price. In the US, at least, they hover in the $12 - $13 range, ridiculous IMO for older backlist titles that people are likely to own in DTB. I can pretty confidently say that I will never pay anything close to that much to replace a DTB . In the past, if one was willing to travel, it was possible to pick up omnibuses of of Travis McGee titles at more reasonable prices; don't know if that is still the case. But in any case, here is the first in the series for $1.99...

And they're readily available at libraries, like most older mystery series (except Perry Mason). I've toyed with the idea of buying some of the Bosch books on sale, but knowing myself, owning just 6 or 8 out of the 20+ would be more frustrating than gratifying...
