    Really?

    That's a typo Lee - its 23.97.  Andy still has his driving gloves on !!

    On that basis - my order is with you, not Amazon - put the £6 towards a round next time your "up North" ...Beer

    Re: New B&O book for collectors.

    Not a mistake.
    £13.97 and that includes P&P!
    I think it is because they price it in Euros at 15.20 and the Euro is so strong against the pound at the moment.

    Must say I am enjoying reading this book. Reading every word and got to page 68 and only spotted one typo so far.

    Re: New B&O book for collectors.

    Apologies Andy - I had a look yesterday and it was 23.97 - so I just assumed.....

    Oh well - paid Lee now, so I'll just assume my copy is typo free or the extra tenner !!!!

    Best Regards

    Just looked and my bought copy was £13.97 as well - though I was charged postage as well! It does of course mean that I have a spare copy so will have to work out something to decide who gets it.

    I just got the copy I ordered from Amazon on the 2nd of September! Laughing

    Final price including everything was £23.20 (26.16 euros). I think I'll keep the signed copy, though Wink

    Re: New B&O book for collectors.

    Great book, eh!
    See if you can spot the two typos, I have spoken to Nick about one of them.

    Re: New B&O book for collectors.

    Page 80 Line 12 is one. I have seen another - but cannot remember where. I did tell Nick so he will be thoroughly sick of this!

    Re: New B&O book for collectors.

    Do you mean the dot in between the E and the G?
    Nick was pleased I mentioned the one on the inside front dustcover. When there is a reprint, it can be rectified.

    PS. Did you spell 'seen' wrong deliberately?

    Re: New B&O book for collectors.

    I just got it today, finally! :D

    As for price i paid  25.50 pounds... exchange rate stings a little at the moment but happy to have it, learnt a few interesting things, and haven't finfished reading it yet. It's a very raw reading experience. No bulls**t here!

    No. No such thing as an S70. Should be S75.

    I take it you mean the see can, a well known receptacle used in the transport of B&O to this country.
