Bookonomics 101

We hold these truths to be self evident:

• Each book its reader, each copy its time to be bought.
  
• Buy the book you want when you see it - lest you spend another five years tracking it down.
  
• If you invoke the £2 Rule ("I can buy it if I see it for £2 or less") it is bad faith to not buy a copy which fits the £2 rule.
  
• Exceptions to the £2 Rule are allowed for specific texts (e.g. Da Da Vinci Code, the £1 Rule) but it is double bad faith with toffee on top to then not buy it.
  
• Purchasing books under the £1 Rule will lead to spotting copies that would fit the 50p Rule.
  
• There will be a cheaper copy if and only if you buy the more expensive one.
  
• Get used to it.
  
• Never underestimate the ability of dealers to misfile books.
  

Memo to Self

If you are going to set reminders on your mobile phone, ensure that predictive texting spells the word correctly so you know what it is you are being reminded about.

NO ALI does not fall into the category of coherent.
