I'm pretty sure OP is just having some fun. Not seriously asking peeps for money.

EDIT: 'The cost is $1850 and you can pay by site transfer / MoneyBookers / PayPal / cashier check. If you are unsure whether the book is worth it, you can buy the 1st half for $850 and the 2nd half for $1150; we are confident you will come back for the 2nd half.' lolz

because for the audience it targets, it's only a couple of buy-ins.

I think it has something to do with the authentic coffee stain on the cover. I mean, that's real, man.

Just what sort of unheard poker wisdom (besides who to make coffe stains and card) they are offering here? From the excerpt looks like "we will make it damn expensive, so everyone will think it is something if we dare to ask that much".

WOW!!! That is one INSANE price. I am sure they must be selling to the desperate STUPID more money than sense crowd. Because no one else would buy it for that. They'll just find somewhere online to rip it off. LMAO!!!

you guys need to realize this targets players at mid-stakes for whom that's not so much money.

If you play 400nl and this book improves your win rate by 1 BB/100, it only takes about 20000 hands to repay the book's price. In that respect, it would be a bargain.

Yes, it's expensive.

Unfortunately this thread has become a PCS magnet (of which I just deleted a bunch and am closing this thread since there really isn't much discussion going on here beyond, OMG it's how much, this is why, ok thanks, OMT its how much, this is why, ok thanks, etc. :eek:
