It costs a lot of money to print a book and not much less to do a re-print. Mr. Still has to weigh the costs of printing vs. potential sales. Compounding the problem is that you can't just print a few copies. There is a minimum number that a printer will accept to print at a reasonable price. Since many of his first printings are in circulation, the initial surge of buying copies of a re-print may not be sufficient to offset the costs of printing in a timely manner. He would be out of pocket for the printing and may not recover his costs quickly enough to keep him from a significant financial burden. I am sure he is crunching the numbers and weighing the odds.
