I will be the first to admit that JDR gets on my nerves. But I think it is disingenuous to insinuate that he "doesn't like the book" or "doesn't like the prices." He consistently points out books that he believes are being manipulated, artificially inflated, or shilled. And he typically has compelling evidence. There is a component of "Boy who cried, Wolf!" Because he always bangs the same drum. But I think that many times he is right. Just because you are bullish on or really enjoy a certain book, does not mean that you can't appreciate someone pointing out pricing anomalies.
