beedle the scammer

i get regular emails from amazon usually pitching items i've already purchased or ones i'd never ever consider using their bad logic. recently, i got a notice about pre-ordering the tales of beedle the bard, from j.k. rowling. sarah and i love the potter series and had no question that we were going to get a copy of this. however, the notice was not for the "standard" edition that costs only $7.59 but rather the "collector's" edition that costs...well, there's no price listed in the email. [cue ominous music] i click through and after the jump find out this version contains some framable prints, extra drawings and an overall more wizard-y feel to it. price? $100.00

one hundred dollars for a kids book? what kind of mass produced collector's edition costs 12 times more than the original? i dunno about you, but i'm seriously disgusted by this...
