If someone isn't willing to travel all over the country, employ third-party purchasing agents, or pay any amount of money to own a given book, then they don't really want it.

Not everybody has a compulsion to spend months or weeks tracking down books and throwing absurd amounts of money after such an endeavor. And, again, I think we're moving back into you making a great argument for rarity at this point — if somebody has to use purchasing agents and such, then whatever they're after certainly is not commonplace. All of that said, let's look back at the post of mine you initially responded to. I was speaking of relative rarity in terms of potential players for a table-top game. I don't think that expecting potential players in a bi-weekly game to spend weeks or month searching the globe for printed copies of obscure-ish books is more reasonable than directing them to a copy of a product  that is 100% guaranteed in stock and available right now.</blockquote>
