They do turn up --albeit rarely-- in the strangest places. The Harvard
Divinity School library used to (I don't think they've done it for a couple
of years) have a "ready-to-be-tossed-out" book sale every spring. Four or
five years back I picked up a very ratty --but still usable-- copy of
Tischendorf's Septuagint for, as I recall, $1.50.
