Looking for a book...probably requires UK help
« on: October 21, 2020, 03:19:23 PM »
One of the librarians I work with is looking for a physical copy of "Do It for Your Mum" about the band British Sea Power.  He says that every copy he's ever seen has been outrageously priced-I think it might not have been widely available in the US and that might be the reason.  So I thought perhaps I could ask if anyone out there has a copy or could find a copy cheap that they'd be willing to part with.

Edit to add: He just sent me the link from Amazon UK and it's outrageously priced there, too.  So I guess it didn't have a large print run.  But I figure if I ask and the answer is "Nobody has one for cheap" then we're not any worse off than we were before.

Are you able to buy from here?

It seems a reasonable price for a limited edition book but I don't know if they'll ship to the US.

Thank you!  I've passed this on to him and he was super excited about it.  He'll look into whether or not he can buy it from them. :)

Looking at the link, it gives prices for European and outside Europe postage, so it seems possible they will.
