Embrarrasingly I lost the note I took with the price when I was at the post office, and have to go back again. However, it was somewhere in the range of $16 shipping to get there in a reasonable amount of time (1 week or so).

We can go with $16 shipping if you want, or I can revisit the post office and get you exact details (assuming I don't lose my note this time!)

I purchased mine from Dymocks online. They had it ex stock and I had it in my hands in less than a week. Delivery was the price of a couple of beers.

Seem to have misplaced my CD though.... :(

WOW! Dymocks huh? I might have to go in and see if I can order it in the store. Providing Saint makes some cash off the sale that is. Can someone please post or PM me the ISBN so I can look it up? Saint, let me know if I buy it here in Austalia, that your conna get SOME money out of the sale. Just want to do something to help support this forum, cheers.

I just checked dymocks.com.au and the ISBN number is 0764556169. It states, "availability to be confirmed". It seems a strange time of year to be out of stock suggesting they are having supply problems or a puchasing officer didn't do his job. (I am feeling lucky that I ordered it when I did.)

Good call buying direct from saint.

I bought my copy of project arcade from Borders Books in Sydney. I just looked up my receit, it cost AU$56 including express post. I rang them up paid over the phone by credit card and got the book in the mail the next day. I bought it in July this year, IU don't know if they have any more in stock.

Its a great book. I have just finished building my cab using it.
