Hmm... After 30 years of searching, I found the Von Vogt books I was looking for in a used book store. Ebooks weren't available back then. The ones I wanted, he wrote back in the 1950s. They weren't his Weapon Shops stories.
Used book stores were simply the only way to find them. They originally were 95 cents to $1.25 each. I paid at least 3 dollars each for them.
If they had been available as cheap ebook downloads, I would have bought them that way.
But publishers don't think there is a market, when in fact there is one.
I have never been to the darknet, and I doubt I ever will.
Publishers have to realize there is a market for books they wont reprint. They shouldn't act surprised when anyone tries to find good books and stories from past decades.
