I had found The Art of Embroidery by Schuette on Craigs list for $40, but when I confirmed that I wanted it, she changed the price to $350. She had done some research and the English version was somewhere in the $200s from the various booksellers. I reported her for changing the price after I had shown interest and was committing to purchase it. I now have one in French. Barbara
