It’s a pain in the ass to source a copy of this book without giving Jeff Bezos all the money. If anyone reading this thread knows John, could you bring this to his attention?

I even tried calling the bookstore on his campus and they said try back at the beginning of a semester, they didn’t have any copies.

My local book store could not source me a copy, and neither IIRC could Powell’s.

That sucks. Ordinarily although a weird volume there's no demand for won't be fast a bookshop should be able to get anything in print. Is there some reason it's specific to this book do you think?

AbeBooks has been a subsidiary of Amazon since 2008. (Sure, this wouldn’t give Jeff B. “all the money”, but neither would that seller’s listing on Amazon.)
