It's possible that the book was out of print when they put their copies up for sale.
Or maybe the version they're selling is an older edition (I guess that would... also make it out of print >_>).

Or they're dumb.

In this case the book was just released today, but they could still see that other vendors already posted new copies for much much less.

They're just waiting for the book to sell out for a spell and a millionaire to buy it

1. It's unique (signature, location, etc)

2. It's rare and they have one of the few copies

etc

pick any reason you want, use your head
