If the retailer owns the book and wants to sell it for $100 per copy, who are you to say that he can't?
I'm not sure what this complaint is about. If this retailer's price is too high, won't everyone just buy from your publisher at $8/copy?
In a free market, you can sell an item for whatever someone will pay for it. In reality, if you charge a ridiculously high price, your competitor will get all the sales and you make nothing. It's a self-correcting thing. Other than perhaps being lousy at business, what offense has this retailer commited that you think the FBI would be interested in? Selling something for an excessively high price is not against the law, it's just dumb (unless your name is Nieman or Marcus :-)).
"Get ready for triple damages, scumbags!"
What damages?
