Björn,
I didn't say that I was the first to offer it, only that it was offered
to the Syncro list before the Vanagon list. If you find it quite
expensive, don't buy it. That's how the free market system we have here
in the U.S. works.

Well, Björn, as you pointed out, it's out of print, and it was worth $75
dollars to me when I bought it, and I thought I would offer it for what
I paid for it. Had I known you had one for sale for $20, I'd have gladly
bought yours.

Which would have been better, just keep a publication I have no further
use for instead of offering it to the list, or sell it at a large loss?
Which would you do, Björn??

I'm offended that you find it necessary to make nasty comments publicly,
while promoting your own interests.
