At the end of the description it says "Now available in trade paper." Whoopee! Big deal. You're trying to sell a digital copy of it, why would you advertise that it's now available in paper? That is so last century.

Suspect the description was just copied (without even reading it) from the book description that appears everywhere else (e.g., on Amazon.com)

Note: There are 9 other books that have the phrase "trade paper" in their descriptions on Vyrso.com:

I love paper books! I will always buy and own them - probably not any lexicons or dictionaries though. I guess I am so last millennium. Smile

Embarrassing, but true. The description comes from the publisher.

Oh I do too, but to advertise "now available" as if it's newly available in the print format on a page that is selling the more recent digital format is kind of backwards.
