I don't know that it was incorrect. I'm just pointing out that "deleted from
archive" doesn't mean "deleted from kindle." Since the OP got that wrong
too, it's hard to tell if the friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend actually got it
right or not.
In any case, it's pretty slimey to take it out of the archives after you
bought it too.
