It's always been highway robbery IMHO. I've been around for several decades, and I have hardly ever purchased a new release book. I would say "never" because I can't remember purchasing any, but there just had to be one here or there that I've forgotten about. So I'll say "hardly ever" to be on the safe side. My decision to wait for the mass market paperback offering to come out is because new release book prices have always been too high IMHO. I know other people will pay the price for a new release, and that's fine. It's their money. I just found no reason to spend mine in that manner.
