We are selling 17 Daily Exercises for Flute (Taffanel and Gaubert) for
$24.60 which is last year's list price. Leduc raises their prices every
year at the beginning of the year and the list price is now $24.95. We
don't raise our prices until we have to reorder. Sometimes slow moving
items have a price that is more than a year old.

For one book in the US Media Mail is $4.00 and Priority Mail is $6.05 if
one pound or less (which this book is).
