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. :roll:

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

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.

Very easy. I've never had a problem with them. I don't think they take PayPal, however.

It's it me, or did S&S raise prices quite a bit after their sale...

I missed it ended at 10am. I'll have to wait for the next one!
