Most copies of a book in charity shop

I buy loads of books in charity shops (mainly because I forget to send library books back and pay fines. Silly me)
Today I found four copies of "Da Vinci Code" in the same shop. And I still see loads of "Kane and Abel" in many other charity shops.
What do you reckon is the most common book found in charity shops and boot sales?

I once saw 7 copies of "Wild Swans" in the local Oxfam book store - it was being promoted in the window as their "book of the week" :rotfl:no wonder....But I'm going to say this once, and once only, Gene. Stay out of Camberwick Green

There is always at least three copies of da vinci code at whatever charity i go to.
Probably because there was such a hype about it a few years back.Undergrad law student. Take my advice with a pinch of salt! :rotfl:0 -
Down here its gotta be Jeremy Clarksons Autobiography series... Almost every other stall at the car boot!The quickest way to become a millionaire is start off as a billionaire and go into the airline business.

That's interesting. I never see many copies here in Newcastle upon Tyne. Having said that, copies of "Newcastle United - Cups won in the last 35 years", are a rare bird as well!:o
