From TMF -- if this doesn't tell the story, i just don't know what will??? Want to buy a book on investing? How about: The Motley Fool Investment Guide: How the Fools Beat Wall Street's Wise Men and How You Can Too by David Gardner and Tom Gardner You can buy it at www.amazon.com or www.barnesandnoble.com Let's see, at Amazon: List Price: $25.00 Our Price: $17.50 You Save: $7.50 (30%) Availability: This title usually ships within 2-3 days Hardcover (January 1996) Simon & Schuster; ISBN: 068481594X ; Dimensions (in inches): 1.08 x 9.53 x 6.39 Now, at Barnes & Noble: The Motley Fool Investment Guide: How the Fools Beat Wall Street's Wise Men and How You Can Too by David Gardner and Tom Gardner Retail Price: $25.00 Our Price: $6.98 You Save: $18.02 (72%) In-Stock: Ships within 24 hours Format: Hardcover, 224pp. Other formats available: Paperback ISBN: 0737232471 Publisher: Simon & Schuster Trade Pub. Date: December 1995 Now, let's see $17.50 at AMZN or $6.98 at BKS.com. Well, I don't know about you but I'd suspect that great investors like Tom & David would recommend that you save a little cash and purchase from B&N. No, wait, competition is good for AMZN, therefore you would purchase it from AMZN because the community feels more touchable there. I think. Cheers! PS. The paperback version is available for $9.60 from Amazon.con but for a tome like this, one must really have the hardbound edition. To pass down to the great-grandkids, you know.
