"Here is an appropriate Amazon search"

Unfortunately, I don't have a hard list, but I've created a search that wll allow you to find the most expensive books on Amazon.

If you navigate to http://amazon.com/s?field-is-available-new=1&sort=-price&rh=n%3A1000, you will find that most of the expensive 'books' happen to be large volumes of science reference.

I created this search by doing the following:
1) Do a search in the Books category, leaving the search term blank.
2) Sort by highest price first (upper right)
3) Narrow down to Condition: New (left column)

That's all.  Have fun=

"I won't list them, but I'll explain how to find out."

On Amazon’s home page, choose "Books" in the search dropdown box and then click "Go." On the search results page, choose to sort by "Price: High to Low." That should give you a page that looks like this (hopefully):

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_st/102-6001626-8191310?page=1&rh=n%3A1000&sort=-price&x=9&y=9

I’ll attach the first five... You'll notice that they're all rare used books. If you're interested in only new books, you'll find a section on the left-hand side of the page called "Narrow by Condition." Choose New, and you're set.

There's some weird pricing issues here. They don't seem to actually sort out correctly.
