Whenever I have seen it priced that high, it is because the seller is not legitimate. They troll for other places selling the book, then offer it for sale at a zillion percent mark up. If you buy it, they will then buy it from the other seller. But usually it is gone. The one that was doing it before was hacienda books (I am pretty sure that was the name located in Florida as I recall), but I think they got closed down. This could be their reincarnation.

This is the highest price I've seen so far. And for ex-library, at that. But they'll generously donate £0.25 to charity.
