“It cannot be too frequently referred to by the trade,—the
unjustifiable mode Ruskin has adopted in the sale of his books. It may
be profitable to you (as we hope it is), but to the general trade it is
nothing but a swindle. Our customer, for instance (whom we cannot
afford to disoblige), pays us for this order just £1 16s. 6d.; and we
must come back on him for expense of remitting, else we shall lose by
the transaction.
“Your obedient Servant.”
