yeah, but you've paid mazda (indirectly) about 3 million yen for your car... a 2000 yen book seems kinda fair, don't it??

2000 yen is only like $16-$17 bucks, he actually wants around 32,000 yen for it! the book itself is worth around $40-$60, the MSRP is on the flap somewhere, if i remember correctly...

what is eluding is this statement:


THIS PARTICULAR COPY IS A JAPANESE PRINT DISTRIBUTED BY MAZDA TO MAZDA DEALERS!!!! THIS IS A FIRST EDITION!!!!!!!

which is misleading in the fact that he's making it seem as if he's got some rare edition of the book when in actuality it's the exact same book all of us that preordered it have...and not to say i wouldn't mind selling my copy for $254 :D , shit i'd sell it for $100 if anyone wants it for that much...


EDIT:
he actually even tells you it's worth $40 bucks:

The book is printed in english but has a price of 5000 yen printed on the inside of the dust cover. This book was printed in Japan.

5000 yen is around $40 bucks...

Well if your stupid enough to spend that much money on an item like that you deserve to be ripped off.
