BuyIt.
Over the years, I've bought three copies of this book, and was given just as many (FactoryTours, etc.).
I ended up giving them all away to anyone who's seen it & expressed a sincere interest.
I'm down to just the one hardcover copy that CWK2 inscribed to me . . . |

Location: New Hampshire, USA | If anyone's having a tough time finding it (and doesn't want to get in a bidding war on ebay), I ordered it from this British website:
http://www.fretsonly.com/xcart/product.php?productid=3228
Once the pounds were converted to US dollars, the total was $18 shipped. The current copy on ebay is already higher than that (inc. shipping) with over a day to go. |

Pissed off? You betcha. :mad: |
