Jim, if you'll be at ASAE in November, please bring some copies of your book with you. I'd like one signed by the author please.

Thanks guys--I will post here when the books arrive from the printers. As far as international shipping goes (I've heard from people from Canada, Europe, UK, Austrailia, etc) I am going to be checking out the postal shipping rates over the next week to see what the prices will be to ship there.

Dan, I wont be able to attend the event in Arizona due to work obligations, sorry. Id be happy to sign a copy for you if ordered (not that my signature would be worth anywhere near Andy Lunt's or Mr. Ramsden's!!)

Again, I will post with the info here on this thread when its time to order with payment info and any shipping info I have. Payment will be Paypal, cash, or check. Orders will be via email to me at [email protected].

This is a "one man" publishing, marketing, packing and shipping opeperation, and purely a labor of love--no one's gettin rich--I just dont want to lose my shirt, lol.

Thanks again for your interest!

Jim

Jim,

It costs me about $75 to send a box of glasses to Europe using the medium flat rate box from the US Post Office. Its $11 domestically if you use their online system. .

Just a quick update---

The book has been selling for a bit over a month now and I want to thank everyone for their support---I have shipped all over the world, including most US states and thats pretty exciting for a little guy like me. OPT (Oceanside Photo and Telescope) has picked it up and its available to purchase through their website as well. Signid copies will still have to be ordered directly through me however. Anyways--thanks again!

Jim
