Recently I started reading books. I was browsing online looking to buy a book when I came across 2 different shops. One was selling a book (I won’t name it) cheap then the other, more expensive (but still the same book). I wondered, are they the same and is the cheaper one “fake” or are there such thing as “fake” books?

    There are a lot of reasons why two copies of the same book would go for different prices

    Are both version of the book new? If not, is the quality about the same? Maybe one shop has more copies of that book than the other. Perhaps due to who shops there, each store has different focuses on the types of books they offer.

    It’s also possible that one is just over pricing, or the other is giving you a good deal
