Re: [Aroid-l] [] Caveat emptor - "book" scam via Amazon

From: Ken Mosher <ken at spatulacity.com> on 2011.01.12 at 19:28:39 Peter - have you tried to report this unscrupulous guy to Amazon?  I don't know how easy that is but it would be worth the trouble if you had a few minutes to spare.  Thanks for the warning. -Ken On 1/9/2011 8:34 PM, Peter Boyce wrote: Dear All,   Something unpleasant has come to light via Amazon – although it seems that Amazon itself is totally innocent.   One or more “publishers’ are offering for sale “books” on various aroid subjects that are simply print-offs of Wikipedia pages or downloads and prints of pdfs available free from BHL.   Of particular note are “publications” by a “publisher” called Books LlC  that are Wiki data dumps, and various parts of Engler’s monographic studies such as the Monographiae Phanerogamarum.     Peter --------------090001090200050200050504-- --===============1203364666784836078==
