I would say it's my fault. I tend to buy sale books during slow moments at work. But have access to Calibre, etc. at home. So yeah, I should check.

But on the other hand, why does Open Road keep reissuing the same book over and over with no changes? (Arthur C. Clarke is dead, so he isn't changing his books from beyond the grave.)

Open Road keeps a lot of books I like in 'print', so I appreciate them. But their constantly changing numbers makes them appear shady.

2061 and 3001 have gone on sale again and Amazon says I don't own them, though I bought each, twice. So it isn't like the changes were one offs.
