In case anyone is thinkling I joke about the prices I will give an example, I like anime films and series, recently I saw a new copy of a 20 year old anime for sale, they wanted £25 for it, when I asked them why it was so expensive their reply was that no one bought them, when I responded that more people would buy them if they were at a reasonable price they refused to respond and got annoyed. m My parting shot to them was if they hadn't been trying to be so greedy they would have got a sale, but due to their worship of mammon I went home and d'led it for free off the net.
