Also, unless the wizard buying it already knows the spell in the book, he can't memorize the spell from the new book until he's spent the money on copying it to his book anyway. I would think this would seriously drop the value of the book. At least, this is how the rules read to me. Thoughts & ideas?</blockquote>
