Many reasons, and I don't want to hijack this new person's thread, but chiefly because I am the type of person that suffers buyers remorse on almost every high priced item I have ever bought. Guilt immediately sets in. I WANT so many cool new gadgets (Ipod, laptop, ereader, etc) but always end up feeling bad after buying because I know I can listen to music, watch movies, read books, surf the web without any of them. So, why 'waste' the money. It's a mental problem stemming from a poor/frugal upbringing.
Enough psyche. Bottom line is I just can't justify it. Nonetheless, I enjoy discussing books with all of you so I think I will stick around regardless. And who knows, maybe some day ebooks will be $99 and everyone can easily afford them.
