I recently ran into just this issue at a Camera store
that takes
consignments. ?They had a very nice used book on Paper Negatives I was
interested in. ?I almost bought it, but couldn't bring myself to pay what
they wanted. ?Then I learned you could not only get the book new still, but
that it was on Amazon for 2/5ths what the store wanted. ?Needless to say a
new copy of the book is sitting on my desk at this moment.
Keep in mind that many stores, most notably antique and book stores,
do a fair amount of business to impulse shoppers. The stores can ask a
good buck to some of their items, and often enough they get it.
