Clerk: Looks at book. Scans bar code. "Hmmm ..."
Me: Monologue to audience. "@?&%&!$&!!"
Clerk: Scans bar code again. Looks at computer again. "They're coming out with a new edition in the fall. I can't buy this back."
Me: "So I get nothing on a book I had to pay full price* for. Y'all weren't selling used versions six weeks ago."
Clerk: "I'm sorry."
Me: Monologue to heaven. "But it's precalculus! Exactly what do they have to update? They haven't come up with anything new since the 1800s! I lose everything because they want to put in more pictures of Yoda? Why!"
Sigh.
Walking off, mumbling. "This "A" was dearly bought."

We'll put it on Amazon and see if there are any takers at the ridiculously low price of $29.99.
I might also check to see if Textbook.com is buying the book or consider posting it for sale on Half.com.
Thanks V. The internet is so awesome I sometimes fail to think of it's awesomeness.
