This used book that I bought for 12£ on the internet was apparently previously bought from Oxfam for 1.99£ - eviltoast

    Ok, don’t buy it online then go get it from the thrift store yourself. Oh that takes valuable time and effort? Guess that’s why it was marked up, peoples’ time is worth money.

      Because I live in another country, a non English speaking one, so there’s zero chance that thud book will make it to my country thrift store

        My case rests, the seller of the book provided you a valuable service then by making a product available to you that you otherwise wouldn’t be able to get, and you’re mad that they made a little money for their time?
