I am finally getting around to catalouging some books that I bought at the end of last year. I also purchased some really cool hard laminate covers for my paperback books that will get used heavily, and also some plastic covers for the paper covers for the books. As I was processing them I got to the place where I entered the price and thought for a moment about how much each of those hard laminate covers cost, and how much time I had spent fixing the covers. So instead of plugging in the amout on the back of the book I added in a dollar. I thought this was resonable since if they loose the book, not only will I have to replace the book, but replace the time and money to get the covers protected. Does anyone else do this, or was I just being greedy because I had spent a good 2 hrs on about 15 books?
