Peter Robins wrote a piece for the Telegraph yesterday about buying a book only to get it home and find that you already own it.
At first I thought I could confidently say I'd never done this - sometimes if I see a favourite book with a new cover I really, really want to buy it again - but then I remembered, I did do it. Just a couple of weeks ago, in fact. With the first book in Meg Cabot's Princess Diaries series. (I could have sworn I'd loaned it to someone and, since I wanted to re-read them all before the final instalment comes out, I had to buy it again!)
What about you? Are your shelves crammed with duplicates?
