Someone who owns just 3 books, or 10, can have as strong a preference for 1e as someone has for 3e who has purchased 30 or 100 books. This because neither demand nor supply is necessarily infinite, or even on a constant scale. More spending does not necessarily add value -- and indeed "complete in one inexpensive volume" may be a value in itself.The conflation of money with real value often confuses things.I'll buy you a diamond ring my friend if it makes you feel alright I'll get you anything my friend if it makes you feel alright 'Cause I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love</blockquote>
