Unexpected success in treatise sales and unfortunate rise in cost of treatise

Unexpectedly, the treatise has almost sold out--as of this moment, I have only 8 copies left. I'm glad about the popularity of the book, of course.

But...now I have to print more, and it's (as Chas. Dickens' character Captain Cuttle says) DE-VILISH expensive! The previous copies cost me $6 each, and after postage of 2 to 4 dollars per book sent, I lost quite a bit of bling on that batch.

How very UN-CAPITALIST of me not to know how to price my merchandise!

Anyway, I've raised the price to $8.

I think $8 is a LOT for a book, but since they're still first editions, 182 pages long, and autographed, you could probably resell yours on ebay and recoup your investment after you've read it. Even, perhaps, with a profit. Which would be better than what I'm doing. ;)
