Nice "discount"

Decided to hit the Plan 9 site for the first time in years, since I was wondering if there were any new Sluggy Books since I fell behind (looks like only one in the last five years). Saw a link to their "sale" page:

Um, nice "reduced" price.

(it's even less of a "sale" when you realize that the actual list price is $12).

Yeah, if by "reduced" they mean "reduced value"...*shakes my head*

'Um, nice "reduced" price.'

Obviously you're not familiar with the difference between the black $12.95 and the red $12.95. ;)

How could I miss it! Now, I can use my cheaper red money to pay for it. It's like having Canadian dollars instead of American ones!

I once knew a guy who sold sports cards that decided to do a social experiment. He put out a sign on some cards that said "$3 or 3 for $10." It was amazing how many people tried to give hime $10 for 3 cards.

Heh. That's truly sad.
