I'm just bewildered by how bookstores aren't carrying the book, but the quantity of "used & new" copies is going up dramatically.

Well, orders through Amazon have definitely delivered, as I have the book in my hands right now. I don't know if the Amazon 'Used & New' type partners can get a bulk discount or if they're just planning to make it up on the shipping charges, though, since they can certainly get Amazon's free shipping deal like I did.

Hmm, good point! So they may just be ordering copies on the first day, and then turning them around as seemingly "lower-priced" books, to make a buck on the increased S&H. Thanks for letting me know that yours *did* ship, that's reassuring. And good luck with the puzzles!
