This absolutely sums up my feelings. The book is an incredible resource and one that I've turned to many times. The detail in which it explores the set card by card and the quality of the book overall is phenomenal. The fact that some copies are being made available by book wholesalers at a fraction of the price doesn't make me regret at all buying the book when it was released. It's not uncommon for publishers or bookstores to produce or buy more copies than they need and then turn to wholesalers to recoup some of their outlay. It happens with almost every book out there.
