-
- If you order it from me, you can save a few bucks and get
- better-than-average service.
-
- I'm charging $39 _including_ U.S. shipping, vs. $42.45 from the
- publisher, allow you to order conveniently by e-mail, and save you
- from having to deal directly with the publisher (which can be a big
- or small advantage, depending on the particular publisher -- no
- comment on which it is in this case; try it with a bunch of them
- and see for yourself).
-
- (Yes, you $40 people who already ordered are being re-priced at $39
- when your books ship and you are finally billed. We're decent
- folks here! And your books should arrive any day now!)
-
- We'll need your Visa or Mastercard (only) number and expiration
- date, mailable delivery address, and, to the extent they exist,
- e-mail, fax, and day and evening phone numbers. THIS IS IMPORTANT!
- People almost as smart as you have accidentally given us impossible
- (there's a check digit) credit card numbers, phone numbers with
- exchanges that don't exist, and street addresses but no city.
- Protect yourself by giving us as many ways of reaching you as
- possible! My re-selling your home phone number is about as likely
- as your re-selling mine (which you have, by the way, so please be
- courteous about when to call; I'm on the West Coast).
-
- We're happy to take overseas orders if you're happy to pay the
- shipping. We charge an averaged rate of $9 by sea (but expect
- arbitrary delays beyond actual shipping time of up to 4 additional
- weeks, by both countries' postal authorities, to encourage the use
- of airmail) or $17 by airmail.
-
- We also sell the official (by NeXT) NeXTSTEP Developer's Library at
- an even more attractive price (thanks to a bigger discount from the
- publisher); please inquire if interested.
-
- Regards and happy programming,
- - Irving
