Slate & Shell has a sale on all their books, at least 25% off. It lasts until 10AM 11 March 2013 EDT.

I don't see a word about it on their website. Do the prices listed reflect the sale?

Go is such a beautiful game.

Thank-you xyzer. I've taken the opportunity to purchase 400 Years of Go in Japan.

Masterpieces of Handicap Go, those are an absolute steal.

Hmm,

Way of Play for the 21st Century is exactly the same price....

Kamakura is now on sale for $180.00??!!

Way of Play in the 21st Century is not published by Slate & Shell, hence not discounted.

The price for Kamakura has been corrected to $18.00.

Has anyone purchased from Europe? Do they offer a choice of shipping methods? Are the shipping costs reasonable? The website won't calculate shipping without first placing an order.

I do have to say that I am a little annoyed that I purchased the entire four volume set of Fujisawa Shuko's Dictionary of basic Tesuji at $25 a volume just a coupled of months ago. Now, they are $18.50/volume!

I wish I had just waited!

Better get your deal now!

I've bought the set for 25€ each volume a while ago - still worth it ; )

rpchuang, may I ask how is the physical quality of the set of Fujisawa dictionary?
Where were the books printed? How is the paper quality, and print quality?
If it's not too much trouble, could you post a photo of two of your set. Thanks.

Physical quality is very good. The paper pages and cover seems to be thicker than Kiseido or Yutopian books in comparison. Print quality seems as good as you can expect from any textbooks.

I am not sure if you would be able to appreciate the thickness of the paper stock on photos.

Maybe xyzer can expound on that a little better.

Thanks for the reply and info.
Depending on the photos, I can appreciate an incredible amount.

I will post some photos later this evening..

I'm interested in this, too. I tried emailing them, but their mail server has been having a "temporary local problem" for the past 3 days and rejected all my emails.

Hi Ed,

Here are two photos of volume 1 and 2 taken from my phone - not the greatest quality pics. They're typical paperback books.

deja, thanks very much! Do you have volumes 3 and 4 also? (It's OK, no need for more photos. Thanks! )

They're on their way...

Nice! Is it easy to order directly from their website?
