builder206 Posted June 2, 2008 Author Share Posted June 2, 2008 There is an ambiguous reference on the stanford.edu site about a "2008 sighting of copies of Sky Valley Rock at REI in Seattle." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

builder206 Posted June 2, 2008 Author Share Posted June 2, 2008 (edited) Picked up my copy from Second Ascent after work. The date is 2000. They have been floating around either in retail limbo or in some warehouse: they are new but not shiny-fresh new; they have been handled and moved around some. The $29.95 price tag on mine was applied over an earlier tag that I couldn't read so maybe S.A. got them as old unsold stock from another retailer. They have about a dozen copies on the shelf. I hope this isn't a push to get rid of old stock just before they come out with a new edition. I'll be pretty pissed to have paid new retail under those circumstances. Last night I looked it up on amazon.com. There's a seller with a new copy for $100 and two sellers with used copies at $180.

jshamster Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I got mine at REI in B'ham last year. The cashier couldn't figure out how much it was, so ended up just guessing and charging me $14.00! 'Course these are the same folks that regularly ring up a 24 pack box of GU as one single packet at $1.25. Sometimes ignorance has its perks.
