I wouldn't pay $1 for that mess.

------------

At a time when publishers are scrambling to keep customers willing to
pay $26 for a hardcover book instead of $9.99 for an electronic
version, the publisher of Senator Edward M. Kennedy’s forthcoming
memoir is going in the opposite direction - issuing a limited edition
it plans to sell for $1,000 a copy.

That's great, 'cause it doesn't COST $1.

That worked out well.  :)

"Limited edition", they sure aren't setting the sales goal very high.

The article mentioned that there will also be a regular version for
$35.  They are planning to print 1.5 million of them.

Is this what pissed you off so much?

Sorry, I was just relaying what was in the article.  Don't kill the
messenger!
