my copy of "cracking the coding interview" was fake, the pages and cover were photocopied and misaligned, etc. my friend also got a fake copy from amazon with the same characteristics. it's pretty crappy because the author is going to make nothing off the sale, and i paid full-price for a defective item. obviously amazon doesn't care since they get their cut either way, and the fake is good enough that 99% of people wouldn't notice/complain.
