There's one up for auction on ebay already!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/11-22-63-Ste...item3cbe0e6061

And sold already!

[Dave1442397]

I'm still sitting at the checkout page, but it won't actually check me out. I wonder if I still have a copy sitting in the basket? Oh well, I don't think this is happening today.

I believe it is in contracts. It is the same with textbooks, at least here in the US. With a lot of textbooks, you can buy one published overseas for less, but you have to shop the secondary market as they can't be sold here in stores or something. Usually the books are identical, but perhaps with a different cover and in softcover instead of hardcover, and if there is a difference it is typically going to be examples given in books.

Why are these things done like this? No clue, so will leave answering that to anyone who might know (Or just wants to make something up even, lol).

Actually a lot of US online stores will not sell outside US (also amazon.com only sells the old kindle to european-third-class customers). And with all the economic troubles I think they should sell to anyone. BTW I can understand they are not willing to "hurt" the english market overseas but the amount of loss sales in non-english speaking countries would be zero...
it's a litte ***** (can't get the right word)... I'd rather use my euros as toilet paper befor getting a s&s book...

It's a bit lame, but it's either a law, contract, or unspoken agreement between the publishers. I'm not 100% sure which it is.

Grant, be strong! Boycott them for their hatred towards those outside of the US!

It's a pretty stupid move on their part I think, many collectors outside the US that would pick this one up I believe.
