Inventory Price Reduction of "How to Win at Quitting Smoking", only $9.99

I didn't realize when I sent my inventory of books to Amazon that I would be competing directly against them as a book seller. I get paid no matter which way anyone buys my book but Amazon charges me a stocking fee for my books that sit in their warehouse, so I am reducing the price to $9.99 to reduce that inventory--to get this price you must buy from the book seller (me)--Stop Smoking, Stay Quit--which is listed under: 6 New from $9.99. The shipping is direct from Amazon and has the exact same shipping rates and policies as Amazon, the only difference is that you are reducing my inventory instead of Amazon's. Once my inventory is gone, the price goes back to $14.95.
