That's weird, I ordered that from eBay not Amazon
bson:
I've ordered various stuff from sellers on Amazon and had it shipped by Sam's Club. I'm not a member of the latter, so it's nice someone lets me buy bulk stuff using their membership, and I don't mind at all if they make money doing so. :-+ Sam's Club on the other hand can't be too happy as I'm sure they'd prefer me to become a member there. (No physical locations in my neck of the woods though.)

Yep, this is common, it's people setting up an automated hand-off reshipping service.
Once you order goes in on ebay their software orders the same (cheaper) item from Amazon as a gift using your address and they pocket the difference.
You can even buy automated software that does all this for you. Probably promoted by the passive income guru courses.
This seller of my BM235 in the US is likely doing this:

At least it looks like he took his own photo, usually the automated software just rips off the entire lists and photos. I've reported a few of them and had them shut down.
But the same seller screwed up the BM786 listign which has a photo of the 121GW!

I believe the software searches for the best selling items in each category and checks if there are other ebay listings. I noticed this years ago when my BM235 became one the best sellers on Amazon.
Looks like you can buy the book! :-DD
