The book can be bought brand new for less than your opening bid. Buy it now is in the stratosphere. Unless books are that much more expensive in England.

Apologies. Was going for a lot more here:-

Think it was out of stock everywhere for a moment.

It's worth more than that to me anyway. However, there are other books selling for much more reasonable prices from this disillusioned, unemployed exarchitect!

Oe rereading it it sounds harsh but I intended it more as a heads up to you why you might not have bids. I did the same thing with something I needed to sell that I was placing too much value on.

jbush - actually, the original run is 'sold out' - that note on the borders site '2-4 weeks backordered' means that they've run out and they have put in a standard re-order. problem is, there aren't any and no one's gotten around to changing the note (yet) to 'out of print'.

Greg So you, me, and 0e are going after Borders for false advertising ;) Anyone have a log in for lawyernect?

0e It might be worth mentioning this on your ebay listing so no potential buyers make the mistake I did.

Greg Walker,

Borders is going under, so re-ordering the Zumthor book may not be their #1 priority

Well it seems to be out of stock in a lot places with no date for next delivery here, so I may mention it on the listing. THanks.

mdler - That nomenclature is pretty much defacto for any of those kinds of sites - it's incredibly frustrating if you don't really understand 'the code lingo'...
