<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Suarez, post: 4039676, member: 99239&quot;]It&#039;s a business problem rather than a technical one. Any time you send a project to a printer, whether it&#039;s a single page flyer or a ten tome set, a big portion of the costs ends up being the setup fees. There&#039;s really no money to be made in reference works. At least not in numismatics that I can see. I wouldn&#039;t be surprised if even Whitman did little better than break even.</p><p><br /></p><p>I calculate the whole of RIC&#039;s volumes would have a printing cost of around $70. Even with a list price some 20 times that figure I don&#039;t think anyone ever made much selling them. And that&#039;s the &#039;gold standard&#039;... imagine for smaller works!</p><p><br /></p><p>Rasiel[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
