The game of chess - Tarrasch

thinking of putting my old copy on ebay I checked for prices.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/1880673940/ref=tmm_pap_new_olp_sr?ie=UTF8&condition=new

Over 400$!!!It's official,the world's gone bonkers 😕

I bought a copy, last fall, for less than $20. Perhaps ~$10.

Here's a copy for $3.97 and zero shipping: http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/BookDetailsPL?bi=7526360541

Yes,I know,saw cheap ones too.I'm not looking for one,but want to sell.

I was just baffled by the sellers trying to get 400$ for it.
What are they thinking?????

There are some older editions, including original German ones, for $400 and even more. But, Amazon often connects to unscrupulous booksellers who seek to gouge the unwary. I generally start with American Book Exchange when I'm shopping for used books. If I run into something of interest at Amazon, I'll still look at ABE, where, in my experience, there are more copies, better information about each, usually lower prices, and more reputable dealers.

Yes,ABE is ok,though they don't always know what they're selling LOL
But they refund your money,no problems.
