Is there a hobbyist discount? Something like $30.00 off the cover price
with FREE shipping!!!
If not, I might just rather wait until they are on eBay.
Or better yet, maybe just wait until I can COPY one, you know, for FREE!!!
Note: The above is purely satire. It looks like a pretty nice book, but I
wonder
if your sources of information were truly comprehensive?
