But it is an older edition. It says "24.72€", which is way more than "$14.74". Go figure.
The 3rd edition is the latest. I still see $14.74. I guess it costs more to ship ebooks to Spain. ;-)
Hmm, I see £20.39 for the kindle edition of the 3rd edition but I could buy a new paper copy for £14.49 (not directly from Amazon). I guess it costs a lot to ship electrons across the pond, especially when compared to the cost of shipping paper :)
Funny. Kobo today lists it at 18.74€. One issue is that paper books get a reduced tax, whereas ebooks are taxed as luxury items. Or something like that. On the other hand, shipping paper is expensive, so it depends a lot. Shipping a single book, which would be applied to me, is expensive. Shipping a bunch and selling on bookstores is cheaper. But I don't live on a big city, so no chance to find it locally.
PS On .com I see paper for $35.35 from Amazon, $29.85 kindle. So I guess they're pretty keen on slicing the market.
In this case, I want paper, and amazon.es wants 60€ for that, used. https://www.amazon.es/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?__mk_es_ES=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=+IPv6+Essentials%2C+3rd+Edition+by+Silvia+Hagen Google finds the 2nd edition in PDF. I don't suppose that's a legal copy. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
