I bought a copy of the Florian version... if it was $20.00 or something, I would have kept it for the joke factor, however as it was about AUD$100.00, I sent it back to the seller (at my expense) for a full refund. It was worth it! |

It may not be fair to blame the seller. Booksellers have historically opposed any type of censorship. They assume everything published has value and that anyone discouraging them from selling any specific item has an agenda to silence the views expressed in that book. The concept of someone writing, publishing, and printing a book that is the equivalent of bound blank pages, and misrepresent he content to steal from a customer, is completely alien and only possible with the new print-on-demand technology. If the bookseller is aware of the publishing scam, actually verifies that the book is part of the scam, and continues selling it, then they deserve all the blame that can be directed at them. The venue (eBay, Amazon, whoever) is not to blame either. They just provide a place to sell, they are not supposed to decide what can or can not be sold (but do when they want to take up a crusade against something, and scam books doesn't measure up as high as the crusades they choose). The blame belongs on the one that came up with the scam to harvest content from un-copyrighted wikipedia articles, get it assigned library of congress numbers, and print hundreds of thousands of bound too-rough-to-be-toilet paper quality titles, on demand. If there is any justice, that guy gets reincarnated onto the lowest rung for the next couple hundred cycles. How sick a world do we live in that we have to know about enlargement pill scams, Somali spammers, Nigerian spammers, Craigslist muggers and murderers, and Alphascript books? |
