I'd call $10.00 for one of his great books _very_ cheap considering
how many people are trying to get a copy. Both books are great and
many people certainly would like to pay much more to get one of them.
The German translation of his first book was priced more than DM
100,- (more than $50) originaly and this certainly was not too
expensive.
