I needed a copy quickly, so I had them send me one via
UPS 2 day for $33.95 + $9.50 shipping and it arrived
right on schedule.  The $9.50 was the actual UPS charge
for the shipping and they shipped the book the day I
called, so they did an excellent job for me.

Perhaps the overseas shipping service is very expensive
and is to blame?  Rich
