I mean, it might not sell. But then again, it might ...
I'm listing my copy for £15. That's half price.

That seems, actually a reasonable price, judging by the listings on Abe Books.

However, you can also get an anthology containing same, plus:

ALPHA (3) Three: The Gift of Gab; Beyond Lies the Wub; Under Old Earth; Total Environment; The Shadow of Space; Rescue Party; Nine Hundred Grandmothers; Day Million; Come to Venus Melancholy; AND Aristotle and the Gun

For under a tenner, including postage, from one Canadian seller.

The silly prices are a scam.

Bastards with web spiders scrape all the bookstores they can find for content, shovel it into a database, and readvertise the contents with a mark-up of between 1,000% and 10,000%. They then use SEO (bluntly: web spam) to shove up their google/amazon search rank so that they're the first vendors a naive searcher will see. If someone is dumb enough to buy a paperback for £150, the scammer then goes and sources a copy for £3 or so. It takes very few sales a month to make a tidy living off this sort of exploitative strategy.
